/ About /

BeforeUpload is a browser-based tool that scans files locally before you upload them to AI services. It detects hidden content, metadata, personally identifiable information (PII), secrets, embedded links, and prompt-injection risks. All analysis happens in the browser, meaning your files never leave your device.

/ How it works /

Users run a local browser-based scan on their files to detect hidden or sensitive content before uploading to any AI service.

/ Who it's for /
