PII Boundary Map for AI Workflows
A metadata-only mapper that documents which fields, prompts, tools, and model calls may touch PII in an AI workflow. It stores policy and field metadata, not the PII itself.
🎯The Problem
A founder adds an AI summarizer to support tickets and cannot answer a simple question: which fields can reach the model, which tools receive them, and where is redaction supposed to happen. The database schema has email, phone, invoice notes, and free-text messages, but the workflow docs are scattered across code comments and memory. The risky data is not just stored, it moves through prompts and tools. Without a boundary map, every privacy review becomes archaeology.
💡The Solution
Scan schema metadata, prompt templates, workflow configs, and tool definitions, then let the founder mark field sensitivity and allowed destinations. The product produces a policy map showing PII sources, transformations, redaction points, model destinations, and forbidden paths without storing actual user records.
👥Target Users
Indie devs and small AI product teams of 1-10 handling user profiles, support tickets, invoices, health-adjacent notes, CRM records, or other sensitive customer fields in agent workflows.
