Zero-Trust Data Sanitization
Watch PrivacyScrubber's local engine transform sensitive Security data instantly in your browser, without any API calls.
Investigative journalists, authors, and screenwriters use AI for structural editing, character development, and translation. PrivacyScrubber's Creative Extension protects whistleblower identities, confidential source locations, and unreleased manuscript IP from being ingested into public AI training datasets.
Whistleblower & Unreleased Intellectual Property Shield
Anonymizes confidential source names, leaked document metadata, unique fictional character names, and unreleased plot twists in local RAM.
Defending Source Confidentiality at the Prompt Boundary
Pasting leaked government or corporate memos into ChatGPT can expose whistleblower identities to AI infrastructure. PrivacyScrubber's browser extension intercepts inputs before network transmission, substituting real source names with [SOURCE_ALPHA] and locations with [LOCATION_1], allowing journalists to analyze leaks and draft articles safely.
