Privacy & safety
It can be — the safety depends entirely on how the tool handles your file. Plainview never keeps your documents. Your contract is read to produce your analysis and is not stored, not used to train models, and not sold — which is exactly what you should demand from any tool that touches a sensitive document.
Uploading a contract means handing over a document that may contain your name, address, income, or signature. That's worth being careful about. The good news is that judging a tool's safety comes down to a short list of concrete questions — not a leap of faith.
Before trusting any analysis tool with a sensitive document, look for these:
The connection should be HTTPS so your file is encrypted in transit between your device and the server.
Analysis should run on a secured server, not expose credentials or your data to the browser or third parties unnecessarily.
Your document shouldn't be used to train AI models or repackaged as data — it exists to produce your result.
The strongest answer is that files aren't kept at all once your analysis is produced — nothing stored means nothing to leak.
A readable privacy policy, not a wall of legalese, is itself a trust signal.
Plainview runs its analysis on the server side, which means the AI processing and credentials stay on the backend rather than being exposed to your browser. Your document is read to generate your analysis — your summary, your flags, your plain-language breakdown — and then it's gone. Plainview doesn't keep your documents at all. Nothing is stored, so there's nothing to leak, sell, or train on later.
If you're handling an especially sensitive document, a reasonable habit with any tool is to redact details you don't need analyzed — like a full account number — before uploading, since the clauses, not your personal identifiers, are what the analysis reads.
How Plainview helps
Plainview processes your document to produce your analysis and never stores it — nothing kept, nothing sold, nothing used for training. Try it with your first document free.
Analyze a document → Your first analysis is on us — no card required to start.It's safe when the tool encrypts your file in transit, processes it securely, doesn't repurpose it to train models or sell data, and doesn't keep it longer than needed. Plainview's approach is to not keep your document at all — it's read to produce your analysis and then it's gone, so there's nothing stored to leak.
No. Plainview does not retain your documents. Your contract is processed to generate your analysis and is not stored afterward, not used to train AI models, and not sold. Nothing kept means nothing to expose later.
It's a sensible habit for highly sensitive documents. The analysis reads the contract's clauses and terms, not your personal identifiers, so redacting something like a full account or Social Security number before uploading costs you nothing and reduces what you're sharing.
