How to Strip PII from LLM Prompts Before They Hit OpenAI

Every time you paste customer data into ChatGPT or Claude, you're sending it to a third-party server. Names, email addresses, SSNs, API keys — all of it hits OpenAI's infrastructure. For enterprises, that's a compliance nightmare. For developers, it's a lawsuit waiting to happen. Here's how to scrub PII before it ever leaves your network — in one API call. The Problem You're building an AI feature. Your user writes: "My name is Sarah Chen, my SSN is 042-68-9301, and I need help disputing a charge on card 4111-1111-1111-1111." You cannot send that to OpenAI as-is. HIPAA, GDPR, SOC 2 — pick your compliance framework. They all say the same thing: don't send PII to third parties without consent and controls.
