About Verho

Worried about sensitive information ending up with American or Chinese AI giants? Do you remove personal data from documents by hand before sending them? Verho lets you keep using the most capable AI models. It is a browser extension, backed by a secure machine-learning model in our own cloud, that finds personal data and hides it before your text reaches the AI model.

Verho is built with all major European languages in mind: it recognises sensitive information and names in multiple languages (in contrast to generic English-first models), and takes into account language-specific special cases.

How it works

The AI service never sees the sensitive information you choose to protect, such as personal data.

The personal data in the example is invented.
  1. Write or paste your text into Claude or ChatGPT as usual.
  2. The extension and our secure machine-learning model find personal data and other sensitive information in the text.
  3. You decide what is protected: add or remove items by hand.
  4. Verho replaces the sensitive information with placeholders. You then send the protected prompt yourself.
  5. When the answer arrives, Verho puts the original values back into it, in your own browser.

Verho works in Claude and ChatGPT. Microsoft Copilot, DeepSeek and Qwen will become supported in late 2026.

Information security

Verho works mostly in your browser, and your browser is the only place where your sensitive information is ever stored.

To identify personal data in your prompt fast and reliably, Verho uses our own fine-tuned large machine-learning model, which runs on a secure UpCloud server in Helsinki, in our own protected environment. The server stores nothing you write and no personal data: it only finds the sensitive parts of the text and tells your browser where they are. All traffic is strongly encrypted.

The Verho server is in Helsinki, in the European Union.

Frequently asked questions

Does Verho see or store what I write?

{{MISSING: the text goes to our server in Helsinki only to find the personal data, is held in memory and never stored; the original values stay in your browser; the AI service gets the text with placeholders. The one exception: masked texts you choose to attach to feedback, kept 90 days.}}

What kind of information does Verho find?

{{MISSING: names in any inflected form, identity codes, addresses, health information, salaries, bank account numbers, organisations, email addresses, phone numbers, passwords and keys, business IDs, case reference numbers. You can mark anything else by hand.}}

Does Verho find everything?

{{MISSING: no tool does; you see what was found and add what was missed before you send; we publish how accurate detection is, type by type.}}

Which AI services and browsers does Verho work with?

{{MISSING: Claude and ChatGPT in Chrome today, Edge through the Chrome Web Store; Microsoft Copilot, DeepSeek and Qwen later in 2026.}}

Does the AI still understand my text when the data is replaced?

{{MISSING: the AI sees placeholders such as [PERSON_1] and writes around them; Verho puts the original values back into the answer, inflected to fit the sentence.}}

How does Verho relate to the GDPR?

{{MISSING: Verho helps keep personal data out of AI services, but it does not by itself make anyone compliant; your firm stays the controller of its data; for firms, a data processing agreement.}}

Can my whole firm use Verho?

{{MISSING: with Pro, coming soon: a seat for each person, the admin invites colleagues, one invoice and a monthly report of firm-level numbers. Nobody, the admin included, sees what anyone did with Verho.}}

How do I get started?

{{MISSING: install Verho from the Chrome Web Store and sign in with Microsoft, Google or your email address; the first sign-in creates your free account.}}
