The language server, which runs on Kubernetes, is a lightweight Golang GRPC proxy that can scan and modify layer 7 packets in real-time, enabling real-time AI data masking. The UI uses Clojurescript and the full solution can be self-hosted. Hoopdev's business model is to make the database client so useful for individuals and small teams that their companies will want to pay for the team and security features. The company assures that it will never sell user data, although it does collect usage data and crash reports to improve the product and manage backend resources. Users will soon have the option to opt out of usage data collection.
