Silk Screen
Silk Screen is a privacy-first AI communication infrastructure developed by Yanerva. It functions as a drop-in managed SDK runtime that serves as an embeddable guidance layer, enabling software applications to explain themselves in context. Silk Screen operates between an application and an AI model, capturing local application state and visible interface context, structuring it into a reliable format for the model, and delivering grounded, context-sensitive guidance. By keeping customer screen content local by default, it ensures sensitive data never leaves the user's environment, addressing enterprise privacy concerns. Silk Screen enforces configured guidance rules and boundaries, reducing unsupported AI inferences and improving trust in AI-generated assistance within complex software workflows.

Problem solved
Enterprises face operational risk when AI assistants provide inaccurate or generic responses due to lack of application context, leading to user distrust and increased support costs. Additionally, many AI solutions compromise privacy by sending screen content to external servers. Silk Screen solves this by offering a structured, locally-processed guidance layer that aligns human intent, application state, and AI output, ensuring accurate, context-aware help without exposing sensitive data.
