You never compromise confidentiality.
Your notes shouldn't either.
Fast notes. Strong ethics.
The only local AI-assisted notes app designed for therapists that runs entirely on your computer.
No data collection, no cloud servers, and no model training.
Your data is
none of our business.
Your clients' healthcare data is sold out in the open — legally and routinely, by the companies trusted to store it. Confidant takes a different approach. We built privacy in from the ground up — not as a feature, but as a foundation.
"Finally, an AI tool I can use without ethical concerns."— The peace of mind of knowing my clients' most vulnerable moments are protected is invaluable.
Zero Data Exposure
No cloud, no servers, no AI training. Every model runs locally on your computer — your sessions never leave your device.
Locked and Encrypted
Confidant requires fingerprint access. Your notes and recordings are fully encrypted — stored in a format no one else can read.
You Own Your Data
Export, delete, or move your data anytime. It's yours, completely — no HIPAA BAA required. Why?
No Data to Sell. No Server to Breach.
There's no external database for anyone to hack, subpoena, or monetize.
How Confidant works
From session to complete documentation in minutes, not hours.

Built by a therapist.
Not just another tech company.
Confidant wasn't born in a boardroom, and it wasn't funded by one either. It was built between sessions, by someone who knows what back-to-back days look like — sessions running over, lunches skipped, notes piling up.
He tried the new AI tools. They saved time, but handing his clients' stories to someone else to hold felt wrong. He wanted something intentional and clean — with all the same time-saving benefits, but one where his clients' data stayed his clients' data, and their most private moments never left the device.
That's how Confidant was born. No investors, no subscriptions. Just a tool that's yours the moment you buy it.
