Evaluation Criteria

What to look for

  • Prefer products with clear data ownership, export options, and transparent retention policies.
  • Look for local-first, end-to-end encrypted, or self-hosted options when the workflow handles sensitive material.
  • Check whether the product depends on trackers, mandatory accounts, or hidden cloud processing before rolling it out broadly.
Where Basil Fits

Keep the meeting layer private too

This category is broader than Basil AI, but the same principle applies: the less sensitive work you ship to third-party clouds, the lower your privacy exposure. For meetings, interviews, and voice notes, Basil keeps that processing on-device.
