How it works

Six steps. Zero data leaks.

Your team asks questions with real client data. PrivaZA strips PII before it leaves SA, forwards it to Claude, then restores everything on the way back — all in under a second.

→ Outbound — your prompt

Ask normally

Your staff type real questions with real client data — names, ID numbers, account details. No special syntax or redaction required.

🔒

PII stripped in SA

PrivaZA's two-layer anonymisation engine intercepts every prompt. Real data is replaced with pseudonyms. Only the anonymised version leaves South African infrastructure.

🤖

Claude processes safely

Anthropic's Claude frontier model receives the anonymised prompt — no real client data ever seen. It reasons over the pseudonyms and generates a full response.

Response returns to you

← Inbound — AI response

📨

Response intercepted

Claude's response contains only pseudonyms — placeholders like [NAME_A3F2]. PrivaZA intercepts it before it reaches your staff.

🔓

PII restored in SA

Every placeholder is swapped back to the original value using the secure mapping stored only within South African infrastructure. Nothing is stored permanently.

Full answer delivered

Your staff see a complete, accurate response with real client names, IDs, and details — exactly as if they'd asked the question directly, but fully POPIA-aligned.

Prompt Caching

Up to 90% savings on AI costs

PrivaZA automatically injects Anthropic's prompt caching on every request — no configuration needed. Long system prompts (legal briefs, accounting contexts) are cached at the API level, slashing your token costs.

⚡

Automatic — zero config

Every system prompt gets cache_control: ephemeral injected automatically. Your team never needs to think about it.

💰

90% cheaper on cached tokens

Anthropic charges 90% less for cache hits. A legal firm sending a 2,000-token system prompt 500 times a month saves ~R800/month on that alone.

📉

Savings passed to you

Our variable rate is priced with caching savings baked in. The more your team uses vertical-specific prompts, the further your token budget stretches.

// Without caching — every request

input_tokens: 2,048  ← full system prompt
cost: R0.102 per request
500 requests/mo: R51.00

// With PrivaZA prompt caching

cache_creation: 2,048 tokens  ← once
cache_read: 2,048 tokens  ← 499×
cost: R0.0102 per request
500 requests/mo: R5.20


        90% saved — R45.80/mo on system prompts alone

Why data residency matters for SA businesses

POPIA Section 72 restricts cross-border transfer of personal information. Using overseas AI directly — ChatGPT, Copilot, or any cloud AI — without anonymisation may constitute a POPIA breach. PrivaZA lets you access Anthropic's Claude frontier models safely, with PII never crossing SA borders.

🛡️

Pseudonymisation, not just encryption

PII is replaced with realistic stand-ins before leaving SA. The AI never sees real client data — only placeholders it can reason about.

📋

Audit trail for every request

Every request is logged by PII category — never the raw values. Show your clients exactly how many entities were protected each month.

📄

Data Processing Agreement included

Business tier clients receive a signed DPA. We're registered as an Information Officer under POPIA.
