Hi HN,

I wanted to show you a demo of the service I created in my free time,

As on most social media there is no feature to send private messages in bulk, in databases or files if some information needs to be redacted but retrievable, on this thought I created this demo service.

This service demonstrates having the same security as AES but without losing the properties like length, searchability, visual representation, etc., of text/message/doc can be strongly encrypted in place.

Demo of other features will be coming for eg. Date encrypted to valid date. Credit card number encrypted to valid Luhn algorithm passing credit card number etc.

Please contact me if you have any usage in mind I can provide private access to the APIs.

> encryption like AES

How is it similar?

> AES or any other encryption will exceed that limit

AES block size is 16 bytes. I don't understand what you mean by exceeding the limit here.

In general showing an encryption service without explaining how it works is not a great idea / doesn't build confidence in it.
