Obscurify.ai releases open-source tool to separate AI chats from accounts

Obscurify.ai says its AI service can now check that a conversation is paid for without knowing which account paid for it. Its November 15, 2026 release pairs an open-source library with a web and Android rollout. The promise is narrower than invisible conversations: the company can still read what users type.

The Rust library, called unlinkable-inference, targets the connection between a customer’s account and their separate chats. In its announcement, distributed through EIN Presswire, Obscurify.ai describes replacing the account key previously attached to each conversation with a prepaid session. The company says that lets it verify payment without connecting conversations to an account or to one another.

Payment without the account key

The mechanism uses digital vouchers stored in a wallet inside the app. Obscurify.ai authenticates those vouchers through “blind signatures”—a technique that lets it sign them without seeing them. When someone starts a conversation, the app spends a handful of vouchers to fund a session identified only by a random secret, rather than the customer’s account key.

A session closes after a period of inactivity. Any money left is returned to the device as newly issued blind vouchers, which the service has not seen. Obscurify.ai says conversations are charged for the exact number of tokens used—the units of text processed by the models—with billing calculated to a thousandth of a cent.

The wallet is recoverable, according to the company. Every voucher is derived from the user’s 16-digit account number, allowing the wallet to be restored at the next sign-in, including after a phone reset. For subscribers, Obscurify.ai says access to a plan’s models will use anonymous monthly passes that reveal only the subscription tier.

Unlinkable inference removes the account key from the conversation. We can validate that someone paid for it, but we cannot link conversations together or to an identity.

Unlinked does not mean unreadable

The privacy boundary is important. Obscurify.ai acknowledges that its service can read prompts sent to AI models. A user who includes identifying information in a prompt can therefore still identify themselves. Removing the account key is not a promise that the contents of a conversation cannot reveal the person behind it.

Network information is another boundary: the company says it can see a user’s IP address unless they use Tor or a virtual private network. The voucher system’s stated protection concerns the payment and account connection; it does not itself conceal that network address. Both limits sit alongside the company’s claim that sessions are otherwise unlinkable.

A library for services, a proxy for developers

The open-source package implements the mechanism on both the client and server. Obscurify.ai says another AI service can install it on its own servers and database without adding a broker or other third party. The release also includes a command-line proxy intended to give existing developer tools private sessions without changes to those tools.

• The Rust library is available under MIT and Apache 2.0 licenses.
• A WebAssembly build for use in web pages is available through npm.
• The GPL-licensed proxy supports coding agents and other clients that use the OpenAI or Anthropic API.

For signed-in web and Android users, Obscurify.ai says the feature is already on by default at no extra cost. API users face a different choice: standard API keys remain the default, and private sessions require opting in through the proxy.
