Shield is an AI-powered self-awareness system designed to help users understand how digital content, notifications, and online interactions influence their emotions, attention, and decision-making.
Rather than censoring content, Shield focuses on reflection, context, and psychological insight.
Shield AI is an active research and development project. Some components are experimental and not production-ready.
- Behavioral logging (notifications, app usage)
- User reflection & insight cards
- Privacy-first local processing
- NLP-based influence & emotional analysis
- Pattern inference (manipulation, comparison, reassurance, grounding)
- Hybrid architecture (ML classifiers + LLM reasoning)
- No raw content stored long-term
- User-controlled data visibility
- Designed for awareness, not surveillance
