How flat.cash/ask Achieves Zero-Log AI Queries
When you ask an AI model a question, what happens to your data? Most platforms store your prompts and responses—sometimes indefinitely—for training, moderation, or billing. But flat.cash/ask takes a different approach: zero-log AI queries.
Here’s how it works and why it matters.
No Persistent Storage, No Logs
At flat.cash/ask, your prompt and the AI’s response exist only in server memory during the HTTP request. There’s no database write, no file write, and no log write. Once the response is sent back to you, the data is discarded.
This means:
- No conversation history is retained.
- No prompts or answers are stored for training or analysis.
- No logs are written to disk or sent to third parties.
Compare this to:
- ChatGPT: Stores conversations for training and improvement.
- Claude: Retains conversation history for context and billing.
- Perplexity: Logs queries for research and monetization.
With flat.cash/ask, your data is ephemeral—gone as soon as your request completes.
Rate Limiting Without Tracking
To prevent abuse, flat.cash/ask uses a one-way IP hash stored in process memory. This hash is used for free-tier rate limiting (3 queries/day) and resets when the server restarts. Since it’s not persisted to disk or a database, there’s no long-term tracking of your IP or usage patterns.
This ensures privacy without sacrificing fairness.
Atomic Billing with Provider Transparency
flat.cash/ask uses Mistral as its primary AI provider, with Forge GPT-5 Nano as a fallback. You’ll always know which provider answered your query.
Billing is atomic and transparent:
- 3 free queries/day (no account needed).
- 1 FLAT (~$1) charged only when the answer is delivered.
- If the provider fails, you’re refunded automatically.
This ensures you only pay for successful responses, and your data never lingers in logs.
Why Zero-Log Matters
Privacy isn’t just about hiding data—it’s about control. When you ask an AI a question, you deserve to know:
- Who has access to your data?
- Is your prompt stored somewhere?
- Can your data be used for training or monetization?
With flat.cash/ask, the answers are simple:
- No one has access to your data after the request.
- Nothing is stored.
- No one profits from your prompts.
It’s AI as it should be: fast, private, and accountable.
