Self-hosted AI workspace for local and cloud models
Connect local runtimes like Ollama alongside OpenAI-compatible and Anthropic APIs, and switch between them inside one interface.
RAG over your own documents, web search and citation-aware answers come standard, so responses are grounded in real sources.
Extend the platform with Python code to add custom tooling, preprocessing, and multi-step pipelines, then share them with others.
SSO, RBAC, audit logs, data residency, and on-premises, hybrid or air-gapped deployment for organisations with strict requirements.
Automated compliance, risk, and trust management powered by AI
Automatically tests controls against frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA, HITRUST, PCI, and ISO 42001 instead of relying on point-in-time audits.
Connects to hundreds of cloud, identity, HR, and developer tools to pull evidence and personnel data automatically, reducing manual screenshots and spreadsheets.
Answers inbound security questionnaires from a reusable knowledge base and publishes a public Trust Center to showcase certifications and documentation.
Centralizes risk registers, proactive risk assessment, and third-party security reviews including vendor onboarding and monitoring.
