Masked ChatYour Identity Shield
Use AI without
revealing your
real name
masked.chat strips your identity before a message ever leaves your device—hiding what should stay private while keeping what needs to be shared. Even we can’t tell who you are. By design.
Masked the moment you send.
masked.chat sits between you and the AI, catching personally identifiable information—names, emails, addresses—and swapping it for placeholders before your message ever leaves your device. You get the answer you need; the model never learns who asked.
Type a message...
Privacy without compromise
masked.chat is built local-first. Your personal identifiers are stripped on your device before your message is sent—your questions reach the AI, but your identity never does.
As you type, masked.chat scans your messages for anything that could identify you—names, emails, addresses, phone numbers—and swaps them with secure placeholders before they leave your device. You stay anonymous without having to think about it.
Your identity vault is yours to manage. Review it anytime to edit, add, or remove entries however you see fit. Whether you’re fine-tuning a single item or wiping everything clean, you always have the final say. Over time, it grows into a digital stand-in that can speak for you online—all of you, none of the exposure.
Your identity vault lives where it should: on your device. It’s encrypted with a key that only you hold. Need masked.chat on another phone or laptop? You can sync your encrypted vault through our cloud—but since you hold the only key, it’s unreadable to everyone else, including us.
Privacy shouldn’t slow you down. Open the app, start chatting, and masked.chat handles the rest. You get access to the world’s best AI models with privacy protection from the first message.
Everything you need to know
Before your message ever leaves your device, masked.chat detects and replaces all personally identifiable information (PII) — names, emails, phone numbers, addresses, and more — with neutral placeholders. This masking happens locally on your device, so neither the AI model you're talking to nor masked.chat's own servers can see your real data. Your identity stays in an encrypted vault that never leaves your control.
We use a combination of context-aware rule-based detection and a lightweight local LLM running on your device. This hybrid approach catches both structured data (like phone numbers and emails) and more nuanced contextual PII (like a name embedded naturally in a sentence). Because detection runs locally, your data is never sent anywhere just to be analyzed.
The identity vault is a secure, encrypted store that holds the mapping between your real PII and the masked placeholders. It allows AI responses to be “unmasked” back into meaningful answers on your side — for example, replacing a placeholder like [PERSON_1] with the actual name you typed. The vault is local by default. If you create an account, an encrypted copy is synced to our servers solely to enable cross-device continuity — we cannot decrypt it.
Yes. masked.chat sits as a privacy layer between you and the underlying AI model, so it is model-agnostic. Whether you are using a major provider or another supported model, the masking process applies the same way. The AI receives only the anonymized version of your input and never has access to your real identity.
