What the AI does and does not receive
Discovery, assessment scoring and roadmap planning run locally. Saved work is available to anyone using the same browser profile until you delete it. AI features send relevant context when you request them; the interview backend does not intentionally persist session content, and Anthropic, the AI provider, processes it under its own terms. In short: saved on this device, and AI features send only what you choose.
