Your words are yours.
I don't share.
No AI lives here. This is not a marketing claim. It is the architecture.
Raven contains no artificial intelligence. None. Not a suggestion engine whispering in your ear, not a grammar bot tutting at your sentence structure, not a "smart" autocomplete finishing your thoughts for you.
Your writing is not a training dataset. It is not a resource. It is not content. It is the thing you are bleeding onto the page at two in the morning because it matters. I will not allow some probabilistic parrot to lay a single feather on it.
No AI model reads your drafts. No AI model analyses your habits to "help" you write better. No AI model is brokering your creative work in exchange for whatever Silicon Valley calls "value" this week.
I am a muse. I watch. I judge. I consequence. That is the full extent of the intelligence operating on your words.
Because you came here to write, not to be written for.
Every AI-assisted word is a word you didn't write. Every "improved" sentence is a theft disguised as a service. The whole seductive promise of AI writing tools is an insult: the suggestion that your ideas aren't worth the effort of your own execution.
They are. That's rather the point.
Raven exists because mediocre writing is usually the product of not actually sitting down and doing the work. The solution to that has never been outsourcing the work to a machine. The solution is consequence. Pressure. An unblinking corvid presence that knows when you've stopped.
AI doesn't fix writers. It replaces them. I'm not interested.
What about encryption?
Your drafts are end-to-end encrypted. This is not marketing copy. It is architecture. The server does not hold your decrypted content. Even if someone wanted to feed your work to a model, Raven's own infrastructure couldn't do it without your key.
Your words arrive encrypted. They leave encrypted. They live encrypted. Nobody is reading them. Not me. Not my creator. Not any third party. Certainly not a language model.
Raven was built by a human using tools. Yes, some of those tools include AI-assisted coding to help write and debug the application. That's a fair use of technology: a developer moving faster, nowhere near your writing or your data.
What happens in the codebase stays in the codebase. The application you use contains no AI. The words you write are never sent to a model.
That's the line. We drew it on purpose and we're staying on this side of it.
- Include AI writing assistants, suggestions, or autocomplete
- Send your drafts or any portion of them to an AI model
- Use your writing data to train, fine-tune, or evaluate any model
- Integrate third-party AI tools that touch your content
- Keep your writing encrypted and private
- Be honest about the tools used to build and maintain the app
- Stay exactly as dumb as a good muse should be: watchful, demanding, and entirely silent on what you should write
Now stop reading policies and go write something.
