Is Grepture a direct competitor to Skyflow?

For the AI/LLM redaction use case, yes. Skyflow's broader data privacy vault covers more ground (token vaults, governed databases, BYOK encryption) that Grepture does not. If you specifically need to keep PII and secrets out of LLM prompts, Grepture is purpose-built for that lane.

Why is Skyflow's pricing not on their website?

Skyflow is enterprise-sales-led — every plan is custom-quoted via a demo call. Grepture publishes prices on the pricing page; Pro starts at €49/mo, Business adds reversible redaction and team features.

Can I self-host Grepture?

Yes. The Grepture proxy is open source. Self-host for full infrastructure control, or use the managed SaaS hosted in the EU.

Does Grepture support de-identification across training data, RAG, and inference like Skyflow?

Grepture covers the inference and RAG paths — anywhere a request flows through a proxy. For training-data de-identification at rest, Skyflow's broader vault is the better fit. You can pair Grepture for the request path with a separate solution for offline data.

Skyflow Alternative for AI PII Redaction: Grepture (Self-Serve, Open Source)

Why people look for a Skyflow alternative

Skyflow is a well-respected privacy platform. Several recurring reasons push teams to look elsewhere when the actual job is "stop PII reaching our LLMs":

Enterprise-sales gating. No public pricing, no self-serve trial — every conversation starts with a demo call and a quote. Fine for a Fortune 500, friction for a 10-engineer team shipping a product this quarter.
Surface area broader than the problem. Skyflow's full platform — data residency vaults, governed databases, encryption-as-a-service — is more than most teams need when their actual problem is "users paste API keys into prompts."
Integration is platform-shaped, not request-path-shaped. Skyflow positions itself as a privacy layer across the data lifecycle. If you specifically need a proxy sitting between your app and OpenAI/Anthropic that redacts in real time, that's not how Skyflow is most naturally deployed.

If any of those describe you, Grepture is built for your lane.

Summary: Grepture as the Skyflow alternative

Grepture is an open-source AI gateway. You point your existing model API calls at it. It detects and redacts PII and secrets in the request, forwards to the model (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, anything OpenAI-compatible), and restores reversible tokens in the response so the user sees their own data back. No SDK calls scattered through your code. No enterprise contract to start.

At a glance

Architecture	Network proxy between your app and the model	API-first vault + platform integrations
Reversible redaction	Native (mask-and-restore tokens)	Yes (de-identify and re-identify)
Secret scanning	Built-in (25+ credential families)	Not a primary feature
Pricing	Public — Free, Pro €49/mo, Business	Contact sales
Setup time	Minutes	Days to weeks (enterprise onboarding)
Self-serve trial	Yes (Free tier)	No (demo-gated)
Open source core	Yes (proxy)	No

Where Grepture is the better fit

You want to start today, not after a sales cycle.
The job is narrow: keep PII, customer records, and credentials out of the prompts your app sends to LLMs.
You serve users who type into your product — chat UIs, AI aggregators, agent platforms — and you can't audit every prompt manually.
You want the option to self-host the redaction layer rather than route every prompt through a vendor.
Reversible redaction matters because your responses reference user data that the model never needs to see.

Where Skyflow is still the right call

You need a full data privacy platform that also handles structured PII storage, governed databases, key management, and compliance reporting beyond LLM traffic.
You're already buying enterprise privacy infrastructure and want one vendor.
Your AI use case is one of many privacy problems you're solving in a regulated industry, not the dominant one.

Migration path

Moving from "considering Skyflow" to "running on Grepture" takes an afternoon:

Sign up at app.grepture.com (no card on Free).
Change your model base URL to the Grepture proxy.
Pick the PII categories and secret families you want redacted.
Watch the Traffic Log to verify what's being redacted before turning on enforcement.

If your team genuinely needs the broader Skyflow platform — great. If you just need PII out of your prompts, you're paying enterprise overhead for a much smaller job.
