Audience
Regulated professionals and small firms who handle other people's personal data and use AI assistants: law, accounting and tax, HR, healthcare admin, consulting. Also IT and security teams who need a control that works on personal, unmanaged accounts where enterprise DLP cannot reach, and Jira and Confluence administrators with GDPR erasure obligations. EU and UK organisations with GDPR exposure in particular.
About Velum Privacy
Velum Privacy masks personal data before it reaches an AI assistant, then restores the real values in the reply. Everything runs on your own machine. No servers, no accounts, no telemetry.
Reversible by design: one-way redaction protects the data but breaks the answer. A local mapping means the reply comes back readable.
Three surfaces, one engine. A browser extension for Chrome, Brave, Edge and Vivaldi, text masking free, no account. A macOS desktop app for documents, folders and coding agents over MCP, Windows in progress. A Jira and Confluence Cloud app that runs inside your own Atlassian instance.
Detection combines pattern matching, checksum validation for IBANs and national IDs, and a local NER model across nine language variants. Accuracy is published, including failure rates: 99.8% must-mask F1 at the top tier.
Verifiable, not asserted: the extension declares zero host permissions, and the desktop app names every outbound call and masks with the network off.
