Product showcase: AI Paper Trail shows the privacy cost of talking to AI

Proton has released AI Paper Trail, a free tool that analyzes exported ChatGPT and Claude conversation histories to generate privacy reports showing what personal information can be inferred from those interactions. The tool uploads data temporarily for analysis and deletes it afterward, helping users understand the aggregate privacy implications of their AI conversations.

Why it matters: Security practitioners and privacy advocates should understand that aggregated AI conversations can expose sensitive personal details; this tool helps organizations and individuals audit their exposure before deploying or heavily using AI services.

Product showcase: AI Paper Trail shows the privacy cost of talking to AI

Proton released artificial intelligence (AI) Paper Trail, a free tool that analyzes exported conversations from ChatGPT or Claude to generate privacy reports showing what information can be inferred about users. The tool processes uploaded data locally and deletes it after analysis rather than storing it on servers.

Why it matters: Anyone regularly using large language models should understand what personal information their conversation history reveals, as individual queries can collectively disclose sensitive patterns about behavior, interests, and vulnerabilities.
