Obra Privacy Policy

Effective date: September 19, 2026
App: Obra for iOS (ai.ashish.obra)
Developer: Ashish Patel

Obra is an app for contractors to log daily job-site progress (photos, voice memos, notes) and turn it into a client-ready daily report. This policy explains what data Obra collects, why, and how it is handled.

Information we collect

• Account information. When you sign in with Apple or Google, we receive your user identifier and, if provided, your email address and name. We use these to create and secure your account. Apple may provide a private relay email if you hide your address.
• Content you create. Photos and voice memos you capture, notes you type, on-device voice transcripts, generated daily reports, and the project details you enter — including project name and any client contact (name, email, phone) and job-site address you choose to add.
• Usage data. Privacy-light, aggregate product-interaction events (for example, that a report was generated or shared) to understand how the app is used and improve it. These events contain no names, emails, or message contents.

How we use your information

Your data is used solely to provide the app's functionality: storing your projects and media, generating your daily reports, and letting you share them. When you tap Share, the report text and any attached progress photos are handed to the app you choose (for example Messages, WhatsApp, or Mail). We do not send that content to other apps unless you share it. We do not sell your data, use it for advertising, or track you across other apps or websites. Obra does not use the Advertising Identifier (IDFA).

Generating reports

To write a daily report, the text of your notes and voice-memo transcripts for that day is sent to our AI provider (Anthropic) through our secure server. Your name, email, account identifier, and client contact details are not sent for report generation. If a day has only photos, Obra writes a short update that photos are attached and does not send photo contents to the AI provider.

Service providers

• Supabase — hosts authentication, database, and file storage on our behalf.
• Anthropic — generates report text from the day's notes and transcripts, as described above.
• PostHog — processes privacy-light usage analytics, when enabled.

These providers process data only to provide their service to Obra.

Permissions

• Camera — to capture progress photos.
• Microphone — to record voice memos.

Data storage and security

Your data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS) and stored encrypted at rest. Access is restricted so that each account can only reach its own data.

Deleting your account and data

See Delete account and data. Uninstalling the app without deleting your account leaves server-held records in place until you delete the account.

Children

Obra is intended for professional use and is not directed to children.

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by the effective date above.
