What private AI means in practice

Private AI is not a single encryption checkbox. It is a stack of promises: no training on your conversations by default, no ad profiling from message content, honest retention language, and UI controls for history, export, and deletion.

Search interest in private AI compounds every year as more professionals paste drafts into assistants. The keyword stays useful because the fear stays useful: “who else gets this text?”

Secrypt positions private AI as a focused chat product plus an OpenAI-compatible Cipher API — same privacy brand, two surfaces.

How to evaluate any private AI product

Open the privacy policy and search for train, improve models, advertising, retain, and subprocessors. Marketing adjectives do not survive a Ctrl-F pass.

Then open the product: can you clear history, export, enable Ghost-style temporary sessions, and see usage limits without opening a support ticket?

Role workflows that stay evergreen

Lawyers, journalists, founders, and researchers share the same durable need: draft with an assistant without turning client or source material into model fuel. The verticals differ; the verification checklist does not.

Strip identifiers when you only need structure. Keep vault secrets out of prompts. Use private AI for wording and critique, not as a system of record for sealed material.

  • Confirm no-training before pasting proprietary narrative
  • Prefer Ghost / temporary modes for one-off sensitive threads
  • Separate chat drafting from final document storage
  • Use API keys for agents so meters and revoke paths are clear

Private AI chat vs private AI API

Chat UI wins for thinking out loud. Cipher API wins when Cursor, Continue, or your backend needs OpenAI-shaped requests against a private endpoint at https://secrypt.space/v1 with model cipher.

API usage is metered separately: daily allowances by plan, then $0.01 per request from prepaid credits. Chat overage stays $0.05 per message.

Secrypt pricing posture

Chat plans: Free, Pro at $5/mo, Unlimited at $10/mo with 3-day trials. Invite & Earn pays $15 credit to you and $10 to a friend after they complete a paid period.

That price posture is intentional: private uncensored chat without crypto-casino framing or suite bloat you did not ask for.

Frequently asked questions

Is private AI the same as local AI?

No. Local AI runs on your machine. Private hosted AI can still be private if policy and controls are strong. Secrypt is a private hosted product with optional API access.

Does Secrypt train on chats?

No. Secrypt does not use conversation content to train models or build ad profiles from messages.

Where should I start?

Open secrypt.space for chat, or /api for Cipher keys if you are wiring an agent.

Can teams use private AI?

Yes — start with policy literacy, then pick chat or API per workflow. Enterprise needs still require your own legal review; Secrypt does not claim HIPAA or SOC2 on this page.

What is Ghost mode?

Ghost mode is a temporary-session control so sensitive threads do not silently accumulate in history. Pair it with clear Settings privacy toggles.
