Maple AI cofounder here.
I'm glad that more people are starting to care about privacy with AI. We've watched a few companies enter this space so far, and yet we are still the only one who goes all the way with letting users verify the code for themselves.
You can see our client and server code on GitHub. The client shows you the cryptographic proof that it is connected to the code you see on GitHub. If it's not, the client refuses to connect. Any user is able to make a reproducible build of the code and get the same cryptographic proof.
Think of it as the new version of SSL, that 🔒 lock icon next to the website address in your browser.
http -> https -> httpse (secure enclaves)

Yes, there are people who still don't want to trust secure enclaves. They are always able to run local AI models. The trade off is slower AI that is less accurate. Do what fits your risk profile.
Maple AI gives you the power of cloud compute with near local privacy. And it still stands out unique from the crowd of private AIs as giving you full visibility into how your encrypted data is handled.
Feel free to drop any questions here or tag me else where. I'm very active on Nostr and dedbird.
I'm a happy customer. can't wait to see the capabilities increase. already great, but I'm sure it'll be even better all the time
Glad to hear it! What are the top things you’d like to see next?
Live data similar to grok 🙌🏾🙏🏾

The ability to pay with bitcoin on a monthly basis instead of yearly as well would be incredible.

primarily web search.
not only is it really useful for responses to prompts, but it would also act as an alternative to DuckDuckGo and other private search engines.

How does the privacy and security compare to Venice that remains local?
Venice follows a “trust we don’t log” policy. Their servers see the queries that hit the AI but claim to not save them. You can’t be sure the code running on the servers.
Maple uses confidential computing combined with open source which lets users verify the code themselves.

Is it fair to say that with Maple, we don't have to trust Maple (assuming we read the source code), but we do have to trust AWS?
