About
DataAnonymiser replaces names, emails, IDs and confidential terms in text, documents and images with consistent placeholders before content is shared with third-party AI tools, and can restore the original values locally afterward. It ships as a desktop app, a browser extension that flags personal details while typing, and an enterprise console hosted on the customer's own infrastructure. Processing happens on the user's device, so content is not sent to the vendor's servers.
What it does
According to its site, DataAnonymiser swaps names, emails, phone numbers and IDs for numbered placeholders on your own machine, so you can paste the cleaned text into ChatGPT or another assistant, then put the real values back into the answer. A browser extension and a self-hosted company console sit on top of the desktop app.
