DOBY is a desktop application for secure, compliant use of artificial intelligence when handling sensitive documents. It solves the "shadow AI" problem where employees bypass corporate security by uploading confidential data to public AI services.
Key features include AI-powered entity detection using GLiNER + spaCy, local pseudonymization with AES-256 encryption, rich text editor with TipTap for entity marking, multi-model support (GPT, Claude), real-time SSE progress updates, and DSG/DSGVO compliance.
The architecture is fully local—no external cloud dependencies—with a clean separation between Electron main process, Svelte renderer, and FastAPI Python backend for ML/NLP processing.
