Why the desktop app

Governance at the system edge

The desktop agent sits where data actually leaks: beneath every browser, chat app, copilot and agent on the machine. Install once and every AI on the device is governed.

One-click install

One-click install for Mac and Windows. Zero configuration required out of the box. Protection starts the moment it's active.

Silent operation

Silent background operation with zero user friction. Automatic updates mean protection improves continuously.

Team deployment

Deploy to 100 devices from the admin dashboard. Average team deployment time is under 5 minutes.

100% on-device

Detection and interception happen locally: nothing is sent anywhere to be scanned. PrivacyPal never sees your unencrypted data.

Every major AI

ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot and Grok (desktop apps and browsers), governed the moment the words are typed.

Agents & MCP too

Claude Code, Copilot agents, Hermes Agent and Private MCP calls: visible, logged and governed alongside your chat apps.

On your desktop

What it looks like in the wild

Privacy Twins in-line

Sensitive values are swapped for synthetic twins before the request leaves the machine.

The PrivacyPal activity feed

One pane of glass

Every interception logged: usage, shadow AI and agent calls in a single activity feed.

Before you install

Three things worth knowing

  • Close other AI apps if the installer prompts you. PrivacyPal hooks in at the system edge for full coverage.
  • Windows: run the installer as a user with permission to install applications; SmartScreen may ask you to confirm the publisher.
  • macOS: open the .dmg and drag PrivacyPal to your Applications folder. On first launch Gatekeeper may block the app. Right-click PrivacyPal in Applications and choose Open, then confirm to grant any privacy or accessibility permissions it requests.
