Privacy by Design: How We Approach Security at Tetrix
December 17, 2024 | by Noah Moller

At Tetrix, security isn’t an afterthought—it’s baked into everything we build. Whether it’s our apps like T-Do and T-Cal, or our vision for hardware like Memo, one thing is clear: your data is your data. Our job is to protect it, not peek at it.
Security has always been a top priority for us, even as a small team. We’re building tools that help people live better, more productive lives, and that means ensuring users can trust Tetrix to keep their data safe, private, and completely under their control.
Let’s talk about what we’re doing—and why it matters.
- Your Data Is Yours—And Only Yours
We made a choice early on: we don’t want access to your data.
When you use Tetrix apps, your data is fully encrypted—not just at rest, but in transit too. That means no one, not even us, can access what you store.
How?
- Our server infrastructure, built using Swift Vapor, prioritizes security from the ground up.
- Encryption happens end-to-end. Your data is locked down before it even leaves your device.
- Once your data is processed (where needed), it’s wiped immediately. Nothing sticks around longer than it has to.
It’s simple: We don’t look at your data because we don’t need to.
- Self-Hosting for Complete Control
Most companies rely on third-party cloud providers, but we wanted more control over our infrastructure. That’s why, as part of our development phase, we’re working toward self-hosting our servers.
- For now, the plan is straightforward:
- Location: Tetrix servers are securely hosted in-house during early stages.
- Efficiency: The servers are built on lightweight, powerful Swift Vapor to ensure speed and reliability.
- Privacy First: Hosting ourselves means we can guarantee how your data is handled, where it’s stored, and who (spoiler: no one) can access it.
While this setup comes with its challenges, it also gives us the freedom to build systems we can trust—without relying on third parties. It’s a step toward a future where Tetrix owns every layer of the security stack.
- Secure By Default: Privacy-First Features
Tetrix apps are designed with privacy-first functionality. Features like Jot in T-Do and Assign in T-Cal use AI to transform user input into tasks or schedules. Sounds complex, right? But none of it compromises your security.
- Here’s how:
- Data processing happens in secure environments with minimal data retention.
- User inputs are encrypted immediately and wiped after they’re processed.
- Tools like Memo (in conceptual development) will process voice data locally before any minimal details are sent for further action.
We follow a clear principle: if data doesn’t need to stick around, it doesn’t.
4. What’s Next for Tetrix Security?
- We’re always thinking about the future of security at Tetrix:
- As we move toward our 2025 launch, we’ll continue refining our encryption standards and infrastructure.
- When conceptual projects like Memo become a reality, we’ll push even further with innovations around local data processing.
- Security will remain a core focus as we expand into hardware and beyond.
We’re not just building tools for today—we’re building systems you can trust for the long haul.
The Tetrix Promise
At the end of the day, security at Tetrix is about respecting you: your time, your work, and your privacy. We build products that help people, not exploit them. That’s why we take security so seriously.
Your data is yours. Your privacy is yours. And at Tetrix, that will never change.
