Sovereignty

For the work that can’t leave the building.

Most firms can use a cloud AI, and it costs less. If yours can, we’ll say so. When a law, a licence or a client keeps the files in, the engine runs on a box in your office.

A Canadian data centre is still someone else’s building. The engine runs in yours.
The AI
On the box, in your building
Cloud AI
Only the tasks you allow, or none
Our access
Off until you open a session

Per-task rules, and our access staying off by default, come with launch.

01

Why firms need it

01

Our drawings are controlled goods.

Defence and aerospace suppliers

The rule

Only registered people may examine controlled goods. Federal guidance expects the data on servers in Canada, and warns that a provider’s support staff seeing it can put them at risk.

What the engine does

The box sits in your plant with cloud AI off. Our remote access stays off unless you open a session.

We settle our own standing with the Controlled Goods Program before our first defence install.

02

Client files are privileged.

Law firms

The rule

Bar guidance says entering privileged information into a public AI system is a breach, even if nothing is disclosed. Closed systems kept in-house reduce the risk.

What the engine does

The AI runs on a box in your firm. Privileged matters use local AI only.

03

Records stay in the office. Backups go in the vault.

Notarial firms

The rule

Your records rules keep files in your office, and software and backup copies in a fire-rated vault.

What the engine does

The box works beside your files, in your office.

We plan backups and software copies made for your vault.

04

Patient files can’t go to an outside AI.

Clinics

The rule

Your province’s privacy and health laws can require an assessment and a written agreement before personal information is sent out of the province.

What the engine does

The AI step happens in your clinic, so it sends nothing out on its own. You still assess the box, and we give you what that takes.

05

Our books have to be kept in Canada.

Every business

The rule

The Income Tax Act keeps your books at your place of business in Canada. The CRA says records kept abroad and opened from here don’t count.

What the engine does

Once the engine holds your books, they sit on the box at your place of business.

06

Our client’s contract says no outside AI.

Suppliers and professional firms

The rule

Some client contracts limit who may process their files, and where.

What the engine does

That client’s files use local AI only, and you can show them every outside connection.

A summary, not legal advice. Your lawyer or your order has the last word.

Every AI,

The rules for each task, and a log of every outside call, come with launch.

What we commit to

Today

The AI works in your building.

Open models run on the box. Cloud AI is optional, and no per-use fees apply to the AI in the box.

Before launch

Sensitive files stay local.

Personal, privileged, health and controlled files use local AI only, unless you allow a task.

Our access is off.

Our engineers reach the box only when you open a session. Each session is logged.

Every outside call is logged.

The task, the model, the provider, its country, and who allowed it.

No training on your data.

Written into your contract.

Updates you approve.

Signed, installed when you say, with a way back.

You can leave with it.

Your data in open formats, and the box wiped, with a certificate.

Help with your assessment.

A system description, a data map and the list of outside connections.

04

What it isn’t

It doesn’t make you compliant.

No product does. You still assess the box; we give you the inputs.

It isn’t sealed.

Updates, links to your software and cloud tasks you allow leave the box. Each one is listed.

It isn’t certified.

We hold no security certification today, and we don’t say otherwise.

It isn’t the cheapest.

If your files can go to a cloud AI, that costs less. We’ll say so.

05

Questions

Isn’t a Canadian data centre enough?
For many tasks, yes. Ottawa’s own framework says storing data in Canada doesn’t guarantee it is out of reach of foreign courts. The same framework found no documented case of a foreign government seeking such data. The box takes the question off the table for the work you keep local.
Can we still use ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini?
Yes, through the one door, task by task. You choose which tasks may use which model. Each call is logged and billed at the provider’s price, under a monthly cap you set.
Who is Engine B?
A Canadian company. Our engineers install the box in your building and keep it running.
