Scientific-data privacy model

Your scientific data stay on your computer.

Local-first is an architectural choice: raw matrices and large scientific datasets stay in your local workspace, where scientific computation takes place.

On your computerLOCAL WORKSPACE
01

Your scientific data

Raw matrices & processed inputs

02

scRNA-agent workspace

Your question, context & decisions

03

R / Python analysis

Local scientific computation

04

Project outputs

Figures, tables, reports & provenance

Raw matrices stay on your computer. Scientific computation runs locally.

YOUR MODEL ACCESS

Your own AI provider supports reasoning and execution. Prompts and shared project context may leave your computer and are subject to that provider’s policies.

Understand each part of the boundary.

Raw data and computation

Raw matrices are handled locally by R/Python scientific environments. The protected Core does not need to receive the raw dataset.

Project files and outputs

Local project files, figures, tables, and reports remain under your control. You choose how to store, back up, and share them.

Protected Core services

The Core provides workflow guidance, scientific skills, account and entitlement services, and updates. These connected services are distinct from raw-data computation.

Your AI/model provider

Your chosen provider supports reasoning and execution. Prompts and shared project context may leave your computer; local computation does not mean all AI interaction is offline.

Make informed choices about shared context.

Review your model provider’s policies and your institution’s requirements before sharing sensitive information. Do not include identifiable or restricted information in prompts unless you have an appropriate basis to do so.
