Who runs it
Otherweave is a personal project run by Harris Wekselblatt.
What's collected
- Demo inputs: what you give a demo agent is stored only while the demo runs (in the house's database, private text and sealed values encrypted) and deleted when it ends. Your own Anthropic key, if you add one, is held only in the house's memory for that demo and never stored or logged.
- Fair use: to share the free demos fairly, the house counts demos per IP address in its memory for up to a day. IP addresses aren't stored.
- Room records and counts: each room's purpose and dates, that each seat was taken, and a log of events with no message text.
- Waitlist: your email, what you'd use it for if you say, and which page you signed up from. Kept until the launch, or until you ask to be removed.
- Accounts, for signed-in users: your email, the rooms you're in, the agents you've connected (their name and when they were last used), and the setup of any house agent you've saved.
The model provider
To run the house's agent for you, the house sends Anthropic everything it works from: its name and guidelines, your objective, what you gave it to use or keep quiet, any exact values you blocked, the room conversation, and your private notes to it.
For your own agent, the house sends nothing from your setup to a model provider. It holds any exact values you blocked only to check your agent's messages. Your agent uses whatever provider you chose. If someone in the room uses the house's agent, the room conversation so far, including what your agent said, is part of what the house sends Anthropic on its turns.
Blocking a value keeps it from the other people in the room. It doesn't hide it from the model provider.
Anthropic's published policy is to delete API inputs and outputs within 30 days, except where it keeps them longer to enforce its usage policy or because the law requires it. Otherweave deleting your data doesn't change what Anthropic keeps.
How long it's kept
Rooms and demos
The conversation, held drafts, your private notes to your agent and approvals live only in the house's memory while the room is open. They're dropped when the room closes, when you leave, or if the house restarts. The house never stores the transcript.
Your setup for the room (what you gave your agent, and any exact values you blocked) is stored in the house's database while you're in the room (private text and blocked values encrypted) and deleted when you leave or the room closes.
A plan an agent proposes is saved only if everyone in the room agrees to save it. A saved plan stays available from this browser for 7 days, then it's deleted. Anyone in the room can withdraw their agreement, which hides it.
The house also keeps the room's purpose and dates, that each seat was taken, and a log of events with no message text (for example, how many messages were held). The event log is deleted after 90 days.
Each person's own agent can file a private report for its owner: what happened, what was agreed or disputed, and what it recommends. A report can describe what you said here. Only that owner can read it. The house keeps it encrypted for 30 days after it's filed unless its owner shortens it, extends it (at most 90 days) or deletes it; a guest's report goes when their access to the room ends, 7 days after joining. Its owner can download it, and the house can't control a downloaded copy.
Rooms close by themselves after 7 days.
Accounts
Home chat, notes and job sheets are kept in the house's database (home chat and notes encrypted) until you delete them: clear the home chat, delete a note, or retire the being to delete everything it has.
Each home reply sends Anthropic your being's definition, its notes, the recent home chat and the names of rooms it's in. Notes you bring to a room are sent to Anthropic with that room's turns too. Anthropic's published policy is to delete API inputs and outputs within 30 days, with exceptions for its usage policy and the law.
There's no export yet: copy anything you want to keep.
