The Nightshade for writers. Poison your text against AI scraping.
Protect your words from AI training. Invisible text cloaking for writers, social media, and total privacy.
Whether you are drafting the next great novel or just posting on social media, your words are being harvested. AI scrapers ingest everything you type to train their models without your consent. Take back control of your digital voice with TextShade.
TextShade is a privacy-first extension that "poisons" your text before you post. It uses advanced adversarial techniques to make your writing unreadable to data scrapers and Large Language Models (LLMs), while ensuring it looks perfectly normal to human readers.
🛡️ WHY USE TEXTSHADE?
- For Everyone: Prevent your personal thoughts, opinions, and conversations from becoming part of a corporate dataset.
- For Writers: Protect your stories, fanfiction, and articles from "style theft" and unauthorized training. Keep your hard work yours.
- Search De-Indexing: "Poisoned" text is difficult for search engines to index, giving your posts an extra layer of privacy from Google and Bing.
🚀 HOW IT WORKS
We use the following methods to destroy data utility:
- Homoglyph Cloaking: We swap standard letters with identical-looking characters from other alphabets (Cyrillic/Greek). Humans see "Hello," but bots see unrelated code points.
- Data Fragmentation: We inject invisible "zero-width" characters that break the "tokenization" process AI uses to understand language.
👤 PERFECT FOR
- Writers & Creatives: Safe for AO3, Wattpad, and blogs.
- Social Media Users: Keep your tweets and takes human-only on X (Twitter), Reddit, and Threads.
- Privacy Advocates: Opt-out of the AI training pipeline effectively.
Because TextShade disguises your text from bots, it will also hide it from search engines.
⚠️ IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER (SEO)
- Do NOT use this tool on titles, hashtags, or keywords if you want your post to be found in search results.
- "Poisoned" text will likely not appear in Google or Bing searches.
- We recommend applying TextShade only to body text or posts you wish to keep private/unsearchable.
🔒 PRIVACY PROMISE
TextShade functions 100% locally on your machine. We do not track, store, or transmit your text. What you type stays in your browser.
