The work AI would help with most sits on top of exactly the data you cannot paste into a public chatbot.
Every law firm, accountancy practice and clinic I speak to has the same problem. The work AI would help with most, reviewing a bundle of case files, drafting from precedent, answering a question across ten years of client accounts, sits on top of exactly the data you are not allowed to paste into a public chatbot. Privileged material. Special-category patient data. Client financials.
So either you skip AI for the work that matters, or your staff quietly paste confidential data into ChatGPT on their own logins and hope nobody asks. One leaves the productivity on the table. The other is a data breach waiting to be reported.
The ChatGPT experience over your own files, inside an environment only your firm can see.
Sovereign AI is a private AI assistant that runs on nothing but your own documents, hosted on single-tenant infrastructure we run and manage in the United Kingdom. It gives your team the ChatGPT experience, ask a question, get a drafted answer, search across everything, over your own files, inside an environment only your firm can see.
Three things are true of it that are not true of a public tool: your data never leaves the UK, your data is never sent to OpenAI, Anthropic or Google, and your data is never used to train anyone's model.
The honest version. This is a new offer, so I am not going to wave case studies or testimonials at you. What I will say is that the hard part of private AI is not the model, it is getting your data clean, structured and in one place first. That is the work I have done for years. Read why regulated firms need private AI.A public AI tool is a transfer of your clients' data to a third party. Sovereign AI is built the other way round.
A transfer of your clients' data to a third party, usually in the United States. For regulated work that is the line you cannot cross: privileged material, client financials and special-category patient data leaving your control the moment someone hits send.
Your documents and every prompt stay on UK infrastructure we run and manage. A single-tenant environment that is yours alone, with a clear data processor relationship, the security measures written down, and an audit trail you can show a regulator.
Your documents and every prompt stay on UK infrastructure. Nothing crosses a border.
Your environment is yours alone. No shared model, no shared storage, no other firm's data in the same box.
We act as your data processor under a UK GDPR Article 28 agreement, with the Article 32 security measures written down, not assumed.
Encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, and an audit trail you can show a regulator.
Our process is certified and documented, so the way we build and run your environment is auditable.
Prefer it in your own building? We can deploy the same environment on your premises so the hardware never leaves your office.
The regulated practices that have held back from AI because the data was too sensitive to share.
Privileged case files, disclosure bundles, precedent. Draft, summarise and search across matters without breaching confidentiality or your SRA obligations. The work stays inside the firm.
Client financials, working papers, correspondence. Answer questions across clients and years, draft and review, without client data leaving your control or your professional-body obligations.
Special-category patient data carries the highest bar. Put AI to work on records, letters and notes inside an environment that never sends a single patient record to a third party.
It is not a gimmick chatbot. It reads your own document store and works across it.
We use right-sized models matched to the work, not the biggest model for a headline. The point is accuracy on your data, not a spec sheet.
Here is the part the AI vendors skip. A private model pointed at scattered, duplicated, half-migrated data just surfaces the mess faster. If your client, matter or patient records live across a legacy system, three spreadsheets and an inbox, that is the real blocker, not the AI.
This is the work I have done for years before AI was the headline: ERP and CRM data migration, data quality and getting an organisation to a single source of truth. So Sovereign AI is the last step, not the first. We get your data clean, structured and in one place, then we put the private AI layer on top of it. Done in that order, the AI is trustworthy. Done the other way round, it is confidently wrong.
A low-risk first step, then a managed subscription with no surprise bills.
1A fixed-fee assessment: what data you hold, where the shadow-AI risk is, a light DPIA, and the two or three use cases worth starting with. You get a plan whether or not you go further.
2We stand up your single-tenant environment in the UK, ingest your documents, write the security and data processing pack, and train your team.
3We host, monitor, update and support it, with a quarterly compliance review. A fixed monthly fee, no surprise compute bills.
Pricing is a fixed-fee readiness review to start, then a monthly managed subscription. Book a call and I will size it to your firm.
The things regulated firms ask before they put AI anywhere near their files.
No. Documents, prompts and answers all stay on UK infrastructure. Nothing is transferred abroad.
No. There are no calls to third-party AI APIs. The model runs inside your environment.
No. Your data is used to answer your questions and nothing else. It never trains a shared model.
It is built to support your compliance: UK data residency, single-tenant isolation, a data processor agreement and Article 32 security measures. Compliance is shared, so we give you the DPIA support and documentation to evidence it.
We run ISO 9001-certified delivery and align our hosting to UK GDPR Article 32. If your policy requires a specific certified environment, we can deploy on your own premises so the data sits inside your existing controls.
Most private-AI use here is lower risk, but the obligations are real and growing. We help you document use and stay on the right side of it.
Yes. We connect it to your document store as part of the data work, which is where the migration and quality piece comes in.
Sovereign AI is the last step. Getting your data clean and in one place is what makes it trustworthy.
