Anonymouth is a Java-based desktop application that helps users anonymize documents by detecting and suggesting edits to stylometric patterns like word length and n-grams. It was developed by Drexel University's Privacy, Security and Automation Lab and builds on the JStylo authorship detection libraries.

Use cases

  • anonymize a document before publishing it
  • remove stylometric fingerprints from my writing
  • avoid authorship detection in essays
  • check which writing features reveal my identity
  • rewrite text to obscure my writing style

When to choose

  • you need to reduce stylometric authorship signals in a document
  • you want a guided, interactive tool for de-identifying your writing style
  • you are researching authorship obfuscation techniques

When to avoid

  • you need guaranteed anonymity - the tool explicitly cannot guarantee documents are anonymous
  • you need a modern, actively maintained tool - it requires Java 7 and development has largely stalled
  • you need automated bulk anonymization rather than interactive editing
