PrivaKit is a client-side AI workspace that runs transformer models (Whisper, OCR) entirely in the browser via WebGPU, ensuring zero data upload for privacy-sensitive workflows. It's interesting because it addresses the growing concern of cloud AI privacy risks by leveraging modern browser capabilities to enable local processing of sensitive documents, meetings, and images.

Target audience: backend devs, frontend devs, security engineers, legal professionals, business analysts
