AI systems that work
only for you.
Law firms, oil & gas companies, healthcare clinics, and accounting firms want AI — but their legal obligations and company policy block standard tools. AKYB is how they get to yes.
Your legal obligations and
company policy block standard AI.
These businesses are not resistant to AI. They've evaluated it, concluded they can't use the standard tools — because their legal obligations, company policy, or risk committee won't allow it. AKYB solves that.
Privilege & confidentiality
Client files processed through shared AI infrastructure are outside your control. Solicitor-client privilege requires more than a provider's terms of service.
Trade secret exposure
Reservoir models and exploration data are trade secret-level assets. Processing them through a shared platform under a foreign provider's terms is a risk most operators won't accept.
HIA legal requirement
Alberta's HIA restricts cross-border transfer of health information and requires a Privacy Impact Assessment before any AI tool goes live. Cloud AI cannot satisfy this.
Professional standards
CPA Canada confidentiality obligations apply to every client file. Using shared AI without documented controls creates professional liability exposure.
Service data & site security
Automatic door service records, building access configurations, and site security data are operationally sensitive. Processing them through shared AI exposes client facility details no integrator should be sharing.
ITAR & export control
Technical data, maintenance records, and engineering documentation are subject to export controls and strict confidentiality requirements. Shared AI infrastructure is incompatible with these obligations.
Three deployment models.
One guarantee.
The AI works exclusively with your data and is accessible only to you. The deployment environment matches your security requirements and existing infrastructure.
Hardware at your site
AKYB provides and installs dedicated hardware at your location. Maximum physical control. No network dependency after setup.
Best for healthcare (HIA), high-sensitivity legal & O&GDeploy on what you have
You already have servers, a private cloud, or a data centre. AKYB deploys the AI stack on your existing infrastructure. No hardware purchase required.
Best for mid-size firms with existing IT, enterprisesSingle-tenant, isolated
A dedicated single-tenant instance on your preferred cloud provider. No shared resources. Your data does not mix with any other organisation.
Best for firms preferring cloud with full isolationWhat standard AI tools
cannot provide.

Microsoft Copilot for a 20-user firm: ~CAD $18,000–22,000/year in licence fees. Over 3 years that approaches the cost of a private system you own outright — with none of the control.
