Show HN: Privacy Scout – understand privacy policies in minutes with LLMs
askatticus.aiAt Atticus AI, we're on a mission to make legal understanding more accessible to everyone. After building our contract analysis tool and talking to folks, we noticed a common use-case: understanding privacy policies. We decided to build a standalone tool, Privacy Scout, to address this need.
With Privacy Scout, all it takes is a URL to a privacy policy. From there, the tool takes over by:
- Retrieving and analyzing the policy.
- Grading the policy with an easy-to-understand and transparent scoring system.
- Allowing users to compare privacy policies across companies in our public directory.
Big learnings for us:
- Updating our privacy policy was necessary due to the lack of key terms.
- A significant portion of the work in effectively utilizing LLMs involves data engineering, such as data munging and developing robust pipelines.
- Achieving standout performance with Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) requires extensive domain-specific experimentation.
We're continuing to build a suite of tools to make legal understanding more accessible, and I would love your feedback! Really intuitive UI. Great product for a very specific use case many legal teams face frequently.
