Trust & Sovereignty

Your life, still yours.

Sutradhar reads across your accounts to surface what matters, without ever storing your emails, documents, or calendar events.

Sovereign by architecture, not just by promise
The short version

Four guarantees

Read-only access Metadata-only to the AI Four things stored Consent-gated, revocable
The model

How it works, in four steps

Data minimization isn't a policy we wrote. It's how Sutradhar is built.

Step 1

Connect

You grant read-only access, one area of your life at a time (consent-gated). Sutradhar can't send, change, or delete anything.

Step 2

Read in place

It reads your accounts where they live. Your content is never copied into our systems.

Step 3

Infer

It extracts only the minimal metadata it needs to reason (never the content) and forms a finding: a heads-up worth your attention, like a renewal, a price increase, or a deadline you might miss.

Step 4

Point back

You get the finding, traceable to the exact source items in your own account. The originals stay put.

The line we hold

What we never do, and what we keep

What Sutradhar never does

  • Store the content of your emails, files, or calendar events
  • Copy your mailbox or documents into our systems
  • Send your content to the AI (only minimal metadata)
  • Let the AI provider train on your data
  • Send, edit, or delete anything (read-only access)
  • Act on the outside world without your explicit approval

What Sutradhar does keep

  • Encrypted access tokens, so it can keep helping
  • Its findings plus the minimal metadata behind them
  • Pointers back to your original items (which stay in your accounts)
  • An immutable audit log of every action it takes

Minimal metadata means a subject line, a filename, a date, or an institution name, never the body of a message or the contents of a file.

Your controls

The controls you hold

Once you sign up, these levers are yours; Sutradhar behaves the way you set them.

👁

What it can see

Connect or disconnect Google or Microsoft accounts anytime (read-only), and choose which life domains (finances, health, work, travel, home, and so on) it attends to. Connecting an account is never blanket permission.

🤝

Whether it acts or asks

Set its autonomy: let it organize on its own, or have it propose and wait for your OK. Anything that touches the outside world always asks first.

🗃

Your document index

Turn the searchable, pointer-only document index (Vault) on or off, with a separate opt-in for indexing images.

🔭

How far it looks

Set the time windows: how far back it reads email, how far ahead it scans your calendar, how much document history to include.

🙈

What to ignore

Tell it to leave specific senders or things alone; they're filtered out before it ever reasons over them.

🔑

What you share

Nothing leaves you by default. You share a document or a plan only through an explicit, revocable grant (Circles).

And you can always pull back: deactivate what it watches, or disconnect an account to stop the flow.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers about what we do and don't do with your information.

Do you store my emails, documents, or calendar events?

No, never their content. They stay in your Google or Microsoft account. Sutradhar reads them in place and keeps only the minimal metadata needed to form a finding, plus a pointer back to the original.

Does the AI see my private content?

Only minimal metadata (for example, "a statement dated April from Institution X") is sent to the AI to reason over. The body of an email or the contents of a file are never sent. Our AI provider (Anthropic) does not train its models on data sent through its API.

Can Sutradhar send, change, or delete anything in my accounts?

No. It connects with read-only permissions: it physically cannot send an email, move a file, or alter a calendar. Anything that would touch the outside world routes to you for explicit approval first.

Then what, exactly, do you store?

Only four things: your encrypted access tokens; your findings and the minimal metadata behind them; pointers to your source items; and an immutable audit log of every action Sutradhar takes. Your emails, documents, and calendar content are not among them.

Where is my data hosted, and who can access it?

On Render (SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001), which runs on Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and access tokens are additionally encrypted with a key held only by the application. Provider access is least-privilege and audited. Subprocessors: Render, AWS, Google Cloud, Cloudflare, and Anthropic (AI).

Is it really consent-gated? Can I leave?

Yes. You grant access one domain at a time; connecting an account is not blanket permission. You can deactivate what Sutradhar watches, and revoke access and delete your data whenever you want. You control what flows.

How is this different from other AI assistants?

Most "AI for your inbox or your life" tools copy your data into their cloud, indexing your emails and files into their own databases, sometimes to train on. Sutradhar doesn't. It indexes in place, keeps pointers instead of content, sends only metadata to the AI, and holds read-only access. The data minimization is built into the architecture, not bolted on as a policy.

Sovereign by architecture. Consent-gated by default.

The evidence stays yours, in place. Sutradhar helps you see across your life without asking you to surrender it.

It holds the threads so you can hold your life.
