Privy reads your own records on your own hardware — decades of email, texts, contracts, photos, and recordings — and answers your questions in plain English, showing the documents behind every answer.
Request early accessBuilt by an operator and investor who wanted it for his own archive.
Your life is scattered across dozens of apps that were never built to talk to each other. One simple question becomes a hunt through four of them — and most of the time you go with what you remember.
Dozens of places one answer might be hiding.
Email accounts, message history, cloud drives, photo libraries, voice recordings, notes, calendars. Everything is indexed locally on your machine.
No filenames, no folders, no search operators. Ask the way you would ask a person who knows where everything is.
A straight answer, plus the actual emails, documents, and photos it came from, with dates and sources.
Every one of these is answered from your own records, on your own hardware, with the source document attached.
Most AI tools get useful by taking a copy of everything you have. Privy is built the other way around.
Your mail, files, photos and recordings sit on computers you own, in your home or office. Privy reads them there.
When a question does need a cloud AI to help with the wording, names, account numbers and similar details are swapped for placeholders first. The outside model sees the shape of the question, not the people in it.
Removing something from Privy removes it. It does not reappear later in an answer.
Decades of records spread across old machines and services, with no way to ask a simple question about any of it. Every tool that could answer wanted it all uploaded first. So our founder — an operator and investor, not a software engineer — started building one that doesn’t.
