What it does
Tinfoil Chat is an AI assistant available in a browser and on iOS. It runs model conversations in attested secure enclaves and offers document upload, web search and projects for organizing context. The service also supports multimodal models and structured response interfaces.
Encrypted backups synchronize conversations between devices, with passkeys supporting transfer of decryption keys. It is useful for users who want a hosted chat assistant with a verifiable privacy architecture. The subscription has separate hourly input and output token allowances, so it should not be treated as unlimited use. Review the current model options and plan limits in the app.
