Meaning without identity

Patent pending · Version 1.0, November 2026

Clinics have been forced to choose between the most capable AI models and the privacy of the people their text describes. Cognitai Hermeta, a patent-pending privacy layer invented at Cognitai, removes that choice. We tested it against Microsoft Presidio and OpenAI Privacy Filter under a protocol written before the test began. Six frontier models from Anthropic and OpenAI answered the same 80 questions about a 50,000-word clinical case file. With Cognitai Hermeta, none of the 4,112 identifying details in the file remained readable, and the models kept 99.6% of the understanding the original text allowed. Each of the other tools gave up privacy or understanding. Cognitai Hermeta gave up neither.

About Cognitai Innovation

Cognitai Innovation is where Cognitai Health Inc., in Montréal, turns the hardest limits of mental healthcare into technology. It is led by Abex Beheshti, Co-founder & Chief Innovation Officer. Its first published invention, Cognitai Hermeta, is patent pending: a privacy layer that lets frontier AI read a client’s whole history while no one in it can be identified outside the clinic. Every invention follows the same rule: built for the clinician, protected by design, and proven in the open. Each paper says what was built, what it was measured against, how the test was kept fair, and where its evidence ends. Mechanisms covered by patent applications or kept confidential are not described.
