Oaken Ward scans everything you send to AI tools — ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, Cursor — and catches sensitive data before it leaves your Mac. 100% local. No cloud.

Security AuditSystem-wide protection that stays out of your way.
It sits quietly in your macOS menu bar. No complex setup or cloud accounts required.
Oaken Ward watches network traffic to known AI endpoints silently in the background.
When PII or secrets are detected, you get an alert. You decide: redact, mask, or send anyway.
Our local engine detects hundreds of secret patterns instantly.
Browser extensions only cover ChatGPT in Chrome. Oaken Ward covers EVERYTHING — Cursor, VS Code Copilot, Claude Desktop, terminal tools, native apps, any app that talks to AI. System-wide protection, not just your browser.
Designed from the ground up to never see your data.
No cloud, no servers, no telemetry. The scanning engine is entirely local to your machine.
Our detection engine is open-source. Verify exactly how your data is processed.
You choose exactly which AI services, domains, and apps are monitored.
No lingering system daemons. Uninstalling the app removes the firewall completely.
