Privacy, in plain words.

Mandala runs on your machine. We don’t host it, we don’t hold an account for you, and your data never passes through us.

What stays on your machine

Your conversations, files, email, calendar, contacts, rules and history. Your passwords and API keys, encrypted. Your accomplice’s name, voice and memory of you.

What your AI model sees

When you use ChatGPT, Grok or the Claude API, Mandala sends that provider what a request needs, under your own account and their terms. You can see what was sent, and you can choose a local model for anything private, so it never leaves home.

What we see

Nothing about you or your work. The app checks for updates; you can turn that off. There are no analytics and no crash reports.

Between your devices

Your phone, laptop and server connect directly and encrypted. When a direct path isn’t possible, traffic is relayed still encrypted, so the relay can’t read it.

With other businesses

You only share what you choose to send: an order, an invoice, a receipt. Each document is signed, so both sides know who sent it and that it wasn’t changed.

Leaving

Export everything in a readable form at any time. Delete the app and its folder, and it’s gone. There’s nothing on our side to delete.
