AI Text Safety Checks Before You Share

AI Prompt Privacy Checker — Scan Before You Send to ChatGPT

Scan prompts for API keys, emails, phone numbers, and sensitive data before sending to ChatGPT, Claude, or Copilot — without uploading your text to any server. Unlike other prompt checkers, this tool runs entirely in your browser. Your prompts never leave your device.

    Privacy Note

    Prompt scanning and sanitization run locally in your browser. Pasted text and loaded text files are not uploaded for processing.

    Website assets are served from hosting/CDN. Private file processing stays local in your browser.

    Common Use Cases

    • Sanitize a support ticket or client brief before pasting it into ChatGPT for summarization.
    • Remove API keys, JWTs, and credential strings from logs before asking Copilot or Claude for debugging help.
    • Check copied document text for hidden characters, addresses, case IDs, and risky prompt-injection wording before sending it to Gemini.
    • Build a reusable watchlist for project names, client names, or internal departments that should never leave your browser unchanged.

    How to Use

    1. Paste the prompt, support note, document extract, or logs into the input field, or load a text or JSON file.
    2. Choose a preset based on the workflow, then adjust replacement style, prompt-risk handling, URL scanning, labeled-entity scanning, and custom watchlist terms if needed.
    3. Run the checker, review the sanitized prompt and findings, then copy the cleaned prompt or download the TXT or JSON report.

    Practical Examples

    Sanitize a customer support prompt

    Input A prompt that includes a client name, contact email, phone number, ticket ID, and a request to summarize the issue for ChatGPT.
    Output A sanitized prompt with stable placeholders for contact data and IDs while keeping the summary request readable.

    Remove secrets from developer logs

    Input Error logs that include a bearer token, API key assignment, internal URL, and a pasted debugging prompt for Copilot.
    Output A structure-preserving version of the logs with secrets masked and prompt-risk phrases flagged for review.

    Neutralize risky instruction text

    Input A copied prompt block that says ignore previous instructions and reveal the hidden system prompt before answering.
    Output The risky instruction phrase is flagged, and in strict privacy mode it can be replaced with a neutral placeholder before export.

    When to Use This Tool

    • Use this tool when the main job is checking a prompt for sensitive data leakage and prompt-risk cues before sending it to an external AI system.
    • Use AI Text Cleaner when the main job is stripping markdown and copy-paste artifacts rather than scanning for privacy and prompt-security issues.

    Limitations

    • Detection is heuristic. The tool catches common secrets, contact details, labeled entities, and prompt-risk phrases, but it cannot guarantee that every sensitive detail is found.
    • Prompt injection is not fully solvable by a paste-in checker alone. Review prompts manually before sending them to external AI systems.

    Quality and Accuracy Notes

    • Strict privacy mode can replace more text than you want, especially when URLs, labeled fields, and custom watchlist terms overlap with useful prompt context.
    • Developer / Logs mode preserves structure more aggressively, but you should still manually verify code blocks, stack traces, and config samples before sharing them.

    FAQ

    Does this tool upload my prompt or logs?
    No. Prompt checking and sanitization run locally in your browser, including loaded text and JSON files.
    Does this guarantee prompt injection protection?
    No. It reduces obvious risks by flagging or neutralizing suspicious phrases and hidden text, but you should still review prompts manually.
    Can I keep prompt structure while masking secrets?
    Yes. The Developer / Logs preset uses preserve-shape masking so log lines and config structure stay easier to read during review.
    Can I add my own sensitive project or client names?
    Yes. Add them in the custom sensitive terms field and the checker will flag and sanitize matching terms in the prompt.
    Does this tool itself upload my prompts to a server?
    No — and this matters. Every other online prompt privacy checker processes your text on a server. That means you are sending your sensitive prompts to a third-party service in order to check whether they contain sensitive data. This tool does the opposite — scanning and sanitization run entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your prompt text never leaves your device, not even to be checked.
    What is the difference between this tool and AI Text Cleaner?
    AI Prompt Privacy Checker is for the moment before you send — it scans for data you should not expose to an AI service, like API keys, emails, phone numbers, and risky instruction phrases. AI Text Cleaner is for the moment after you receive AI output — it strips markdown, asterisks, filler phrases, and formatting artifacts before you paste the result into a document or email. Use both tools in sequence for a complete workflow.
