We’re making AI privacy possible with Tinfoil with secure hardware. You don’t need to worry about your data, because Tinfoil cannot be subpoenaed for data that we technologically cannot access.
Listen carefully to what Sam Altman says here before you use ChatGPT…. “If you go talk to ChatGPT about your most sensitive stuff and then there's a lawsuit, we could be required to produce that … It makes sense to … really want the privacy clarity before you use it a lot.”

PII redaction removes identifiers but exposes your actual content. Local hosting offers strong privacy but limits you to smaller, less capable models.

Policy-based privacy from major providers processes your data in plaintext: you're trusting their promises. Identity hiding anonymizes who you are, not what you're sharing.

AI provides the most value when we share sensitive information with it. But current privacy solutions often fall short:.

Adding privacy to your AI application is now as simple as changing a single import line. From "from openai import OpenAI" to "from tinfoil import TinfoilAI".

RT @garrytan: For 25% of the Winter 2025 batch, 95% of lines of code are LLM generated. That’s not a typo. The age of vibe coding is here.
