Global security firm ExpressVPN claims to have the fix.It's called ExpressAI, and it's designed to offer the same powerful AI features as the likes of ChatGPT, Claude, and Google Gemini...

without risking that any of your personal details end up in the wrong hands. If you're not familiar with ExpressVPN, this award-winning brand is behind one of the best VPN deals available today. It's also launched a flurry of new functionality in recent months, including a way to supercharge privacy for Gmail, Yahoo, and more.While most current AI platforms process data on traditional servers, ExpressAI brings a secure computing enclave technology to users. This approach ensures that conversations are decrypted only within a secure enclave, a cryptographically isolated environment that is inaccessible to the host system and infrastructure operators.Think of this isolated, ultra-safe vault like a locked safe hidden in your home. Even if hackers or malware infiltrate the server or system — like someone breaking into the property — the data that's only decrypted inside the secure enclave remains completely safe.Subscribe to ExpressVPN for just £1.74 – cheaper than its Black Friday dealProtect your personal information and encrypt everything you do online for just £1.74 with the latest ExpressVPN deal. That equates to just 6p a day for military-grade encryption across 10x devices.Unsurprisingly, this blockbuster sale trounces NordVPN, its biggest competitor.ExpressVPN boasts apps for iPhone, Android, Linux, Windows, Mac, Fire TV, and dozens more, to secure your internet traffic from prying eyes, advertisers, and governments. We praised its speed and reliability in our ExpressVPN review. For a limited time, you'll benefit from an extra 4 months free with a two-year planNot only that, but ExpressAI doesn't use any personal information or files shared with the system in a request to train its models – a standard practice across the rest of the industry. You can also configure ExpressAI to automatically wipe all chat history after each use, similar to Incognito Mode on the immensely popular Google Chrome web browser, which doesn't save any web history, cookies, site data, or information entered into forms on your machine.Even if you don't use this particular function, dubbed Ghost Mode, then you'll be asked to set a password to create an encrypted vault that only you can unlock, ensuring chat history remains private and accessible only to you.LATEST DEVELOPMENTSBest VPN dealsExpressVPN reviewHow to watch GB News live from anywhereHow to install ExpressVPN on MacHow to install ExpressVPN on Windows 10How to install ExpressVPN on Windows 11How to install a VPN on your Wi-Fi routerIt's a strict, privacy-first approach to AI chatbots, which are fast-becoming an everyday tool for millions of us. ChatGPT attracted 1 million users worldwide in just five days after its launch in late 2022, making it one of the fastest-growing consumer apps of all-time – and kickstarting an AI arms race between some of the biggest technology companies on the planet. Discussing the new addition, Chief Operating Officer at ExpressVPN, Shay Peretz said: With ExpressAI, ExpressVPN is effectively extending its long-held stance on traffic protection to AI interactions: The best way to protect user data is not to collect it in the first place. We're not just making privacy claims — we're proving it with cryptographic guarantees. With our enclave architecture, your messages exist in a secure, isolated environment that even we can’t access. This is the future of reliable, private AI.At launch, ExpressAI offers a suite of five general-purpose models to cover everyday tasks:GPT OSS 120B: A powerful open-weight model by OpenAI for everyday reasoning and writing. Excels at drafting, summarisation, QA, and general-purpose tasksDeepSeek R1 Distill 32B: Your go-to model for problems that require careful thinking. Excels at multi-step reasoning, logic puzzles, research analysis, and anything that benefits from thinking before answeringQwen2.5-VL 32B: See and understand the world around you. Excels at reading documents, extracting data from images, answering questions about charts, and analysing diagramsQwen3.5 35B-A3B: A smart, efficient model for long and complex tasks. Excels at coding, multi-step reasoning, and multilingual tasksNemotron 12B: A compact powerhouse by NVIDIA for technical work. Excels at solving math problems, generating code, and tackling complex reasoning tasksExpressAI offers a side-by-side comparison view, so you can run the same prompt across multiple models simultaneously and see how each of these tools offers a different perspective or reasoning style. You don't have to take ExpressVPN's word for its strong stance on privacy. Its latest tool, ExpressAI, has been independently audited by Cure53, a leading cybersecurity firm known for its rigorous security assessments.The independent audit, conducted in February and March 2026, included penetration testing and a source code review across ExpressAI’s frontend and backend systems, as well as its cryptography, key management, and underlying infrastructure.“Cure53 concludes that the product meets its stated privacy objectives by providing modern AI capabilities within confidential computing enclaves, where user interactions are processed in cryptographically isolated contexts,” the final report from Cure53 reads. All identified security vulnerabilities by Cure53 were addressed and remediated ahead of launch. The full report can be accessed here. ExpressVPN COO Shay Peretz added: People are already turning to AI for high-stakes, personal conversations—from health questions to financial decisions. Whether you’re accessing a bank account online or discussing private matters with a professional, you expect strong privacy protections. But those protections don’t automatically carry over to everyday AI chats. That gap has left many users uneasy about how their data is handled. ExpressAI was built to remove that fear and show that private, trustworthy AI can be part of the tools people use every day.ExpressAI will begin slowly rolling out from today (March 31, 2026) to new and existing ExpressVPN subscribers. You'll need to be subscribed to its most expensive Pro tier to be one of the first to benefit from ExpressAI. Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter
