A tool to prevent client data from being sent to or learned by LLMs during accounting workflows

App Concept

AuditShield Pro

A browser extension for accounting professionals that integrates with LLM interfaces like Claude to automatically redact, anonymize, or block client data from being transmitted. It provides a local encryption layer and a clear audit trail of what data is sent, ensuring compliance with confidentiality standards.

Key Features

Automatic client data redaction based on configurable rules (names, SSNs, account numbers)
Local encryption of data before it reaches the LLM
Real-time audit log showing exactly what was sent and received
Option to run inference on a private, local model for sensitive tasks

Target Users: Accountants and bookkeepers at small-to-mid-sized firms (1-50 employees) who use LLMs for financial tasks but must maintain client confidentiality

Revenue Model: Freemium with basic redaction; $29/mo per user for encryption + audit logs; $99/mo per firm for on-premise private model option
