QualAnon

QualAnon is a web-based anonymizing tool that takes a user-generated name key to replace identified names with pseudonyms. It has several options, including the option to have an annotated document created that identifies where specific changes have been made in the document. The program also creates a summary report that specifies the number of times a specific name has been replaced. In addition, QualAnon has a "batch" option that allows the users to anonymize several documents at once by uploading multiple documents as a Zip file using one corresponding name key.
