About Tinfoil Private Chat
Tinfoil Private Chat is a privacy-focused AI chat application that processes conversations inside a secure hardware enclave, guaranteeing that your data is encrypted, the code is auditable, and the runtime is isolated. It is designed for users who want the capabilities of modern large language models without sacrificing confidentiality. The service offers a browser-based interface with no persistent storage by default, and an optional Premium subscription unlocks additional features like cloud backups, device sync, and higher rate limits.
- Secure Enclave Processing: All chat data is encrypted using a unique key generated inside verified secure hardware, ensuring no third party — including Tinfoil — can read your conversations.
- Verification Center: A built-in Verification Center lets users confirm that data is encrypted, code is auditable, and the runtime is isolated before trusting the service.
- Private by Design: Chats are stored temporarily in the browser tab by default, with no persistent server-side logging of conversation content.
- Web Search: Integrated web search capability allows the AI to retrieve up-to-date information during conversations.
- Document Upload: Users can upload documents to chat with file contents directly in the interface.
- Speech-to-Text Voice Input: Premium subscribers get access to voice input, enabling hands-free interaction with the AI.
- Projects & File Chat: Premium users can create projects to organize and chat with multiple files.
- Cloud Backups & Device Sync: Premium plan includes encrypted cloud backups and synchronization across devices.
- Multiple AI Models: Supports selectable AI models (e.g., Kimi K2.6) within the chat interface.
- No Account Required: Users can start chatting immediately without creating an account; chats are stored locally in the browser tab.
