Privacy and safety

Trusted with the people you love.

Bringing a listening companion into someone's home is a big thing to ask. And we take it seriously. Here is how AIjia treats your privacy and safety, in plain words, with nothing hidden in the fine print.

Not always listening Data stays in the West Honest about the cloud
Our plain language promise

Everything we do with your trust, in one place.

Is AIjia always listening?

No. It rests until you call its name.

AIjia is not always listening and not always recording. Its wake word lives on the chip inside the pillow itself. So until you say AIjia, the pillow is resting and nothing leaves it. When you call its name, it wakes and connects so it can hear you, and when you finish, it rests again. In other words, you are always the one who starts the conversation. There is also a physical switch that turns the microphone off entirely, so listening can be disabled by hand, and AIjia responds only when you wake it.

The wake word, in real time
Resting Nothing is leaving the pillow.
Where do your conversations go?

They stay close to home, and they stay yours.

They stay in the West. Conversations are processed and stored on secure servers in the United States and Europe, with careful backups. Your words are kept close to home.

Most importantly, they stay yours. Never sold, never shared, and never used to train other companies' AI.

We are honest about the cloud. AIjia uses advanced cloud AI to understand and respond, so when you talk to it, that conversation is processed online. Because of this, we will always be straight with you about that, rather than make promises we cannot keep.

Coming with the next pillow Memory, and why it will live on the device

The safest place for your memories is the one you hold.

Today, AIjia remembers within a conversation, not across days. When lasting memory arrives, with the next pillow, it will be kept on the device in your hands, not only in the cloud. We chose that on purpose, because the safest place for your memories is the one you hold.

How is it kept safe?

A gentle voice, and consent that comes first.

A gentle, safe voice. Every response passes through a safety layer first, to keep it kind and age appropriate.

Consent comes first. If a personalized voice mode is ever used, it requires clear consent from everyone involved, set up in the AIjia app.

What AIjia is not

A companion, not a watcher.

It is not a surveillance device.
There is no medical function here.
And it will never stand in for the people in your life.

It is here to help someone feel less alone, and to support real human connection, never to stand in for it.
