Why Client-Side Scrubbing is Better

Confidential Market Research

When searching for unannounced competitors, M&A targets, or confidential patent details, PrivacyScrubber tokenizes company and product names into anonymous placeholders before queries leave your device.

Inline Browser Interception

The PrivacyScrubber Chrome Extension automatically monitors Perplexity search bars and Pro Search inputs, glowing yellow to warn of confidential data and redacting on shortcut.

Instant Source Re-hydration

Synthesized research answers returned by Perplexity are seamlessly re-populated with your real entity names locally, keeping full context intact without server logging.
