Introducing Writing Help, a new AI feature powered by Private Processing that assists users in crafting messages with the right tone—whether professional, funny, or supportive—while keeping messages completely private. Users can access Writing Help by drafting a message in a 1:1 or group chat and tapping the pencil icon to receive AI-generated style suggestions, which they can select or edit further.
Privacy and Security
Writing Help leverages Meta's Private Processing technology, ensuring that neither Meta nor WhatsApp can read the original messages or AI-generated suggestions. This technology has undergone rigorous stress-testing and validation by security experts and independent audits from NCC Group and Trail of Bits, confirming its privacy-preserving architecture.
User Control
Using Writing Help and other Private Processing features like Message Summaries is optional and disabled by default, emphasizing user control over their WhatsApp experience. Additional technical details are available in Meta’s engineering blog and technical white paper for those interested in the underlying technology.
