The situation

An authority sends a letter. The language is hard. You do not know: What should I do? By when?

How it works

You paste the text of the letter.

The Schleuse replaces secrets

Names, addresses, identifiers and credentials are replaced with stand-in words. This happens on your side, not in the cloud. Amounts and dates stay as they are.

The AI answers, the Schleuse translates back

The answer contains the stand-in words. On your side they turn back into the real names.
