Private AI deployed on your hardware, managed under contract.
DeepShield AI takes the best of the open-weight model ecosystem and wraps it in the infrastructure, security, and support a regulated Australian firm actually needs.
Four layers, all running on your hardware.
Hardware layer
High-performance server hardware sized to your firm, installed in your office, on your network, owned by you. No cloud dependency, no ongoing compute costs.
Model layer
The latest open-weight AI models, selected and configured for your firm's needs. Updated regularly as the technology evolves, without any change to your data or infrastructure.
Interface layer
A clean, easy-to-use chat interface your team will pick up in minutes. Familiar to anyone who has used a modern AI tool, with multi-user accounts, conversation history, and document upload.
Integration layer
Single sign-on with your existing staff accounts. Connects to your document management system and precedent library so staff can search and reference firm knowledge directly.
Designed to be defensible at PI renewal and before the regulator.
The fundamental design choice is simple: the AI runs where your data already lives. Nothing crosses the firm boundary unless you explicitly route it there.
- No data leaves your office network without your explicit configuration
- No model training on your inputs. Open-weight models are static by design
- Full audit log of who queried what, when, and for how long
- Role-based access tied to your existing staff directory
- The AI server sits behind your firewall, not in a third-party cloud
- Compatible with Essential Eight Maturity Level 1 controls out of the box
Sized to your firm, owned by your firm.
Every deployment is hardware your firm owns outright. No ongoing compute costs, no subscription to a cloud provider.
| TIER | FIRM SIZE | USERS | WHAT IT HANDLES |
|---|---|---|---|
| Foundation | Small firms | Up to 10 users | Workstation-class hardware. Sits under a desk, runs quietly, handles everyday drafting and research tasks for a small team. |
| Practice | Mid-size firms | Up to 30 users | Rack-mounted server with higher capacity. Supports multiple simultaneous users, larger documents, and more complex workflows. |
| Chambers | Larger firms | 50+ users | Enterprise-grade compute for high-demand environments. Handles firm-wide rollout, multiple practice groups, and advanced use cases concurrently. |
