Maskan is a private, Arabic-first AI chat app that puts you in control of your conversations and your data.
Most AI chat apps route your messages through their own servers, log your activity, and show you ads. Maskan does none of that. It uses a "bring your own key" (BYOK) model: you connect your own API key and your messages go straight from your phone to the AI provider you choose — no middleman, no tracking.

WHY MASKAN
Private by design — no analytics, no telemetry, no ads, no data collection
Encrypted on your device — conversations and API keys are stored with strong encryption
Arabic-first — built for Arabic with full right-to-left (RTL) support, plus English and Thai
Open source — fully auditable, licensed under GPL-3.0, available on F-Droid
Your key, your choice — connect any of 12 AI providers

PRIVACY YOU CAN VERIFY
Maskan is open source (GPL-3.0). Anyone can read the code and confirm exactly what it does and doesn't do. No trackers, no ads, no hidden network connections. Your API keys use Android's encrypted storage, and your chats live in an encrypted database on your device only.

WHO IT'S FOR
Anyone who wants a private AI assistant they can trust Arabic speakers seeking a true Arabic-first experience, privacy-conscious users, developers, researchers, and anyone who would rather own their data than hand it to a company.
