Visit Tinfoil

Tinfoil is a private AI platform that runs models inside secure hardware enclaves. Data is encrypted directly to the enclave, cannot be accessed or shared by Tinfoil, and the security guarantees are cryptographically verifiable. It offers Private Chat for personal use, an OpenAI-compatible Private Inference API for building AI applications, and Tinfoil Containers for running Docker images in enclaves.

Private Chat is available in the browser and on iOS, with projects, web search, cross-device sync, speech-to-text, document upload, and multimodal AI. The Private Inference API is open-source and verifiable, with usage-based pricing. Tinfoil Containers runs any Docker image in a secure enclave, priced at a monthly fee plus usage. Private Chat is packaged as a monthly subscription; GPU access for the API can be requested based on use case.
