CamoCopy

CamoCopy is a ChatGPT-style assistant with encrypted chats, anonymized web search, workspaces, secure document storage and a text-to-image studio, all hosted in the EU on an open source core.

CamoCopy is a general purpose AI assistant built around one central promise: the operator does not read your conversations and does not train anything on them. Chats, uploaded documents and images are encrypted, searches are anonymized, and the infrastructure sits on servers inside the European Union. The product positions itself as the first privacy-focused ChatGPT alternative, a claim it dates to 2023, and describes its core as open source. In daily use it behaves like a familiar chat assistant. You ask questions, summarize or translate text, draft articles, write social media copy, debug code or plan a trip. What separates it is the built-in search engine: you can switch between AI chat and a web search mode to pull current answers with sources and images, so questions about live prices or recent events do not stall on an outdated model. An image recognition layer lets you upload a picture, have it analyzed and then ask follow-up questions. A text-to-image studio covers simple graphic and logo generation. Organization is handled through workspaces. Each workspace holds its own chats and its own persistent instructions, so a marketing context can sound creative while a legal context stays formal. Documents can be stored in folders that only the assistant touches, with expiry timers or immediate permanent deletion, and one upload can be reused across conversations. Model choice runs from open weights (LLAMA, Mistral) on EU hardware to Claude Sonnet 3.5 and OpenAI models, which route your text outside that closed loop but still keep it away from vendor training. It suits privacy-conscious individuals, freelancers and businesses with GDPR obligations, particularly EU teams that want AI help without shipping data to US providers. Compared with ChatGPT and Copilot it trades some ecosystem breadth and polish for anonymity, encryption and self-hosting options.
