Privacy-first AI development with Void and Cencori PII Protection.

Void (voideditor.com) is a privacy-first fork of VS Code. It gives you full control over your data.

Ultimate Privacy Stack

Combine Void (Client Control) with Cencori (Data Protection).

  1. Void: Ensures no telemetry is sent to Microsoft/Code editors. Allows you to see the exact prompt being sent.
  2. Cencori: Sanitizes the data before it hits the LLM provider.

Workflow

  1. Configure Void: Set Cencori as your custom OpenAI provider.
  2. Enable Redaction: In Cencori Dashboard, set PII Mode to redact or mask.
  3. Code: When you ask Void to "Refactor this file containing user emails", Cencori will strip the emails before OpenAI ever sees them.

This allows you to use powerful Cloud Models (GPT-4) on sensitive codebases without leaking data.
