Privatemode vs. Langdock
Langdock wraps ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini in a compliant contract.
Privatemode removes plaintext access underneath, not just on paper.
Data privacy
Who can technically read your data.
- Privatemode: hardware-enforced
- Langdock: contractual only
Privatemode encrypts prompts and responses end-to-end and processes them only inside hardware-isolated confidential-computing environments. Even Privatemode can't see the plaintext. Langdock adds a GDPR-compliant contract on top, but requests are still routed to OpenAI, Anthropic, or Mistral and processed in plaintext there.
Parties with access
How many operators are in the chain.
- Privatemode: none
- Langdock: gateway + model provider
Privatemode is one layer, hardware-enforced end to end. There's no gateway operator, no model provider, and Privatemode itself can't see your data. With Langdock, every request passes through its gateway operator in addition to the underlying model provider, adding a party with theoretical access instead of removing one.
Verifiability
Whether you can check the claim yourself.
- Privatemode: remote attestation
- Langdock: none
With Privatemode, you cryptographically confirm what's running before you send any data. That's proof, not a policy page. Langdock offers no technical mechanism to verify its privacy claim. You're relying on the DPA and its word alone.
Setup time
Same speed. The difference is who can read your data.
- Privatemode: minutes
- Langdock: minutes, too
Privatemode is available today as a web app, desktop app, and OpenAI-compatible API, no procurement cycle in between. Rolling out Langdock is also reasonably fast. Setup time isn't the argument for switching here, data access is.
Privatemode vs. Langdock, at a glance.
Langdock wraps ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini in a compliant contract, but the underlying provider still sees your data unencrypted. Privatemode removes that access entirely, hardware-enforced.

Frequently asked questions
Gateways like Langdock give you a single, GDPR-compliant interface to multiple AI providers. The underlying model (OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral) still processes your prompts in plaintext on its own infrastructure.
