MetaScrub removes hidden metadata — EXIF, GPS location, author and device info — from photos, PDFs, videos and Office files in seconds. Unlike most free EXIF tools, it also handles documents and video, and offers a REST API with an n8n integration for automation. No signup needed. Your file's quality stays untouched — only the hidden data is stripped. Free and private by design.

Top comment

Hi everyone! I built MetaScrub after realizing how much hidden data we share without knowing — a single phone photo can leak your home's GPS coordinates, and PDFs quietly carry author names and revision history. Most free tools only clean image EXIF, so I wanted one place to scrub photos, PDFs, Office docs and videos — all in seconds, with no signup required. There's also a REST API and an n8n integration for anyone who wants to automate it. Would love your feedback!
