Confer
Confer is a privacy-focused AI assistant created by Signal co-founder Moxie Marlinspike as an alternative to mainstream chatbots like ChatGPT. It is designed to feel familiar to users while fundamentally changing how data is handled behind the scenes. Confer ensures that user conversations are never collected, stored, or used for training or advertising purposes. Messages are encrypted using WebAuthn passkeys, preventing the service provider from accessing user content. All AI inference runs inside a Trusted Execution Environment, with verification systems that ensure the infrastructure has not been compromised. The platform relies on open-weight foundation models to process queries securely. By prioritizing privacy at every layer, Confer enables sensitive and personal conversations without fear of data misuse.
