We can only guess what products you use, but I'll take a stab by naming some big ones: Spotify - https://techcrunch.com/2026/02/12/spotify-says-its-best-deve... Netflix - https://www.cnbc.com&

I think the argument still applies on a shorter timescale. The child mortality rate in the US fell from 26 per thousand in 1970 to 7 in 2020 [1]. It seems reasonable that some portion of kids that now have treatable but persistent illnesses

Sony was a major investor in Spotify, reportedly worth $1.5B at IPO[1]. I'm not sure how much stock they've held since then. [1] https://www.musicbusinessworldwide.com/sonys-stake-in-spotif...

That's a new regulation passed in December that doesn't take effect until April. At the moment, there is no cooling off period.

We still need to add the format to our docs, but it's essentially: prefix + base64(len_encode(metadata) + len_encode(key_tag) + aes_encrypt(data)) So definitely possible to decrypt it without JumpWire, if you have the keys. There are s

Thanks, appreciate it!

It depends on the use case. In our experience, it's been rare that queries on PII need to do anything more complex than substring matching (which we're working on support for). We're definitely not trying to be able to encryp

Totally agree. We're likely going to implement a partially homomorphic solution that allows for some specific queries. We aren't trying to build a general purpose computational environment as the use cases we support don't re

Tonic is awesome! We think of synthetic data/differential privacy as a different use case - trying to replicate data across scoped environments while preserving certain properties or distributions of the entire data set. There is a se

A manual rotation is one click on the web page, and we can automatically rotate on a schedule to limit the scope of a compromise if a key gets leaked. Full rekeying is Coming Soon™ - fields encrypted with JumpWire have some metadata about w

Thanks! Some databases have encryption support but it is either coarse (row-level encryption is offered in a few databases for example) or it's a low level construct that becomes really complex to integrate - especially if you want to

Yeah, the mix of permissions can definitely be a big pain. We're building with that in mind - policy exceptions can be set so that specific groups of applications get the raw data when querying. All of the policies stack too; one commo

Our engine is self-hosted, so all of the data is kept local to your network and we can't read any of it. Concerns about data access and query latency are the two biggest reasons we decided to take the self-hosted approach. Whether engi

Thanks! The plugin is pretty nice if you're sticking to just Prisma for your backends. Always happy to chat about your use case or give a demo of how JumpWire compares if you're interested.

Glad to hear you like our approach! We haven't fully solved indexing/complex querying yet. We have two modes we can operate in - directly encrypting in the database, or doing just-in-time encryption as the query results come back.

Thanks for letting us know, should be fixed in a minute!

The short answer is we haven't fully solved it yet. We have two modes we can operate in - directly encrypting in the database, or doing just-in-time encryption as the query results come back. For the former most queries other than dire

The value prop is definitely very similar. I'm not as familiar with Voltage as I am with other solutions, but my understanding is that it requires either using the Voltage database driver (JDBC/ODBC in particular) or an HTTP API.

We have thought about that! It's a nice approach for some use cases but having just a read-only copy ends up being pretty limiting. Often people using internal tools (particularly customer success) needs to modify some fields in a reco

There's a complete lack of enforcement for bike thefts (at least in the US cities I've lived in). Even if you have GPS coordinates that unequivocally lead to the thief, the police won't take any action. Maybe this is differen

10% annual is not huge at all, it would actually be on the lower end of a year that had positive gains. 10% average is what you should expect for the SP500 - and that tends to be driven by lumps, years with returns >20%. 50% is high from
