Security & Privacy

Your files stay private: Files are processed on your device, not uploaded to an external server. Nothing leaves your organization.

No third-party servers: The add-in reads files from SharePoint, processes them locally, and saves the result back to SharePoint. No middleman.

SharePoint permissions respected: Users can only access files they already have permission to see. The add-in does not bypass any access controls.
