About Ask Safely.

Ask Safely is a private AI assistant. Powered by Anthropic's Claude, it gives you top-tier AI with a key difference: your chats auto-delete on a timer you choose, 7 days by default, and your data is never used for training. What's worth keeping goes into a Knowledgebook you own: a plain-words record of what you know, that only changes when you say so.

Ask Safely runs on Anthropic's Claude models: Haiku and Sonnet for everyday questions, and Claude Opus on Expert. The app picks the right model for each question automatically, a faster one for simple things, a more powerful one for harder or higher-stakes questions. Expert subscribers can also choose a model manually. You don't need to know anything about AI models. Just ask.

No. Ask Safely doesn't sell your data or share it for advertising. We use a short list of service providers to run the product, and they can't use your data for anything else. The full list is in our Privacy Policy. Your conversations are not used for advertising, profiling, or training. We make money from subscriptions, not your data.

No. Guest Mode lets you try Ask Safely right away. No signup and no email needed. You get up to 10 messages a day with the same AI, web search, auto-deleting chats, and guided prompts. If you like it and want unlimited messages, you can create a free Essential account. Any conversations you started as a guest carry over.

Because our business depends on it. We make money from subscriptions. If we broke your privacy, we'd lose our only reason to exist. On top of that, chats clear themselves by default, everything is encrypted in transit and at rest, and we're in a SOC 2 Type II audit for independent, third-party review.

Ask Safely is undergoing a SOC 2 Type 2 audit, run continuously through an independent compliance platform. The observation period began June 10, 2026. We'll share our current status on request.
