The key differences are deletion and training.
Most consumer writing tools store your content — sometimes indefinitely — and may use it to train or improve their AI models, unless you actively opt out. Some retain usage data and writing statistics even when content storage is turned off.
FirstEdit works differently:
- Your original document is deleted immediately after the check completes.
- Your content is never used to train any AI model.
- No person sees your content at any point.
- There are no settings to configure — these protections apply to every document automatically.
FirstEdit is built specifically for organizations that handle sensitive content and cannot afford ambiguity about how that content is handled.
