Project Guardian AI is an AI-powered app designed to provide users with a safe and supportive space in the often-chaotic digital world. It acts as a digital companion, offering guidance and education to children and adults alike on navigating online harassment, cyberbullying, misinformation, and social isolation.

The app's core functionality revolves around user-activated multimodal prompt recording. When a user encounters potentially harmful content, they can activate Guardian AI, which captures screen recordings and audio from their device. This multimodal prompt is then processed by Google's Gemini API, converting it into a raw text description. This process ensures user privacy, as the original recording is immediately deleted after conversion.

The raw text is then analyzed by "Guy," the app's AI persona, using Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) to provide contextually relevant and emotionally intelligent responses. Guy can detect bullying indicators, misinformation, and other red flags, while also offering compassionate and educational advice. The user controls what Guy analyzes and how information is filtered, ensuring they retain full control of their data.

The app's workflow begins with the user encountering a potential threat, such as a concerning text message. They then open the Guardian AI app, which operates as a resizable, always-on-top overlay window. The user selects the source of the content they want to review, and the app positions itself over the relevant viewing area.

After obtaining the user's permission, Guardian AI records the screen and audio, creating a multimodal prompt. It's important to note that the app does not access or interact with other applications, ensuring the user's privacy and control within those platforms.

Once the recording is stopped, it's converted into a raw text description using the Gemini API, and the original recording is deleted. The user can then engage in a conversation with Guy, receiving a summary of the analyzed content and further insights tailored to their profile and settings. Guy can offer support, clarification, and advice on how to handle the situation, without directly exposing the user to the potentially harmful content until they are ready.

All of this is now possible by using Gemini entirely on-device, enabling an entirely new level of data security: Complete.
