About DraftGuard: Form Saver, Crash Recovery & AI Answers in Your Voice
You're three paragraphs into an application essay and the page crashes. π₯ The portal times out. The back button eats the draft. Or it's your tenth job form this week and you're retyping the same answers you already wrote perfectly the first time. π€
DraftGuard fixes all of it. It quietly saves everything you type, brings it back the instant something goes wrong, reuses your best answers across every form, and (if you want) drafts brand-new answers in your own writing voice. All of it private. All of it encrypted on your device. π

π΅ RECOVER β protects your long-form work before it disappears
Most writing tools fail at the exact moment you've invested the most. DraftGuard saves what you type every few seconds, so when the page crashes, times out, freezes, or you close the tab by accident, a recovery bar brings your work back in ONE click. π±οΈ
π It even keeps a full version history, so you can roll back to an earlier draft, not just the last thing on screen.
β 100% local Β· always on Β· zero setup
ββββββββββββββββββββββββ
π REUSE β your best answers, everywhere
Write a great cover letter or application answer once. On the next form, DraftGuard recognizes the same kind of field and offers to fill it from your saved answers. π―
π It matches even when the wording is different, like "First Name" vs "Given Name."
β‘ Fill out a form you'll see again? Save it once and refill the whole thing on the next site with a single click.
π€ Your name, email, phone, and address autofill from a profile YOU control.

β¨ DRAFT FROM MY VOICE β optional AI
Turn on Voice AI and DraftGuard learns how you write, plus the facts you choose to give it (your Fact Vault). On any question, click once and get a first draft that actually sounds like YOU. π£οΈ
π§ Uses only YOUR real facts
π« Never invents awards, numbers, employers, or dates
π Leaves anything it doesn't know as a clearly marked fill-in blank
π You preview every word before it goes in, and nothing is ever auto-submitted
β»οΈ You can also polish an answer you already saved to fit a new question

π ENCRYPTED, PRIVATE, YOURS
Everything DraftGuard stores is encrypted at rest with AES-256 on your device: your recovered drafts, saved answers, profile, and Fact Vault.
π No account, no sign-up, no third-party trackers
π‘οΈ Passwords, payment cards, CVV, SSN, and one-time login codes are NEVER captured, filled, or sent to AI. Ever.
π΄ Recovery and reuse work with ZERO network connection
ποΈ AI is completely optional and off until you turn it on yourself
ββββββββββββββββββββββββ
π WORKS ON ANY FORM
Job application portals, college and scholarship applications, internship forms, RFPs, contact pages, and long text boxes anywhere on the web. If a website has a form, DraftGuard protects it.

π§ THE MODERN REPLACEMENT
Used one of the classic form-recovery extensions years ago and watched it go unmaintained? This is its modern successor: built for Manifest V3, encrypted at rest, actively maintained, and extended with answer reuse, version history, and optional AI drafting.

π PRIVACY, PLAINLY
Everything is stored locally in your browser and encrypted at rest with AES-256. The only time any data leaves your device is when YOU click an AI action. At that point the form's question and relevant on-page context (never passwords, payment, SSN, or one-time codes) goes to DraftGuard's own server to generate that one draft, then it's discarded. Never stored, never sold, never used for tracking.
