The Sovereignty Principles
Consumer AI stores your data on shared servers. Human assistants see everything. We took a different approach.
Consumer AI stores your data on shared servers. Human assistants see everything. We took a different approach.
MyRagu deploys into your personal AWS account. You own the infrastructure. You pay AWS directly. We're just the architects.
Your communications never touch our servers. We can't read your messages even if a government asked us to. By design.
Want to delete everything? You can. Instantly. We don't have a kill switch on your data—you do.
Defense in depth. Every layer designed for sovereignty.
All data encrypted using AES-256 via AWS KMS. You hold the master key (CMK).
Row-Level Security (RLS) in PostgreSQL enforces tenant isolation at the database kernel level.
Your deployment lives in a private VPC. No public internet access for databases.
Continuous monitoring of your environment for malicious activity.
Compliance-ready for disclosures and consent.
AI that responds on your behalf raises valid questions about disclosure. We've built tools to handle this responsibly.

"Better than a human assistant—an AI can't gossip, can't be bribed, and can't remember after you delete."
