The Problem

Three risks your firm takes every day

Cloud exposure

ChatGPT, Claude, Harvey — your queries pass through third-party cloud servers. Client data leaves your office, potentially waiving privilege.

Vendor lock-in

Harvey is locked to OpenAI. Claude for Legal, to Anthropic. The best model changes every month — your tool doesn't.

Privilege at risk

ABA Model Rules and state bar ethics opinions increasingly scrutinize AI use. Most legal AI tools weren't built with privilege preservation in mind.

The Solution

Private. Turnkey. Always the best model.

A physical box shipped to your office, pre-loaded with the RAGbase software. Plug it in — you're operational.

Your data stays at the firm

Local models for everyday tasks. Cloud LLMs (Claude, GPT, Mistral) for complex queries — only anonymized excerpts.

Turnkey

Hardware provided and pre-configured. No infrastructure to manage. No IT department needed. Plug and play.

Always the best model

Model-agnostic. When a better model releases, we deploy it on your box. Your system stays the same.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ

Routine tasks (extraction, classification, Q&A, summaries, translation) run directly on the box at your office with no external connection. Complex requests (advanced legal reasoning, long-form drafting) are routed to the best cloud LLMs — Claude, GPT, or Mistral depending on the task. Only anonymized and de-identified excerpts are transmitted, never your full documents.

Full client documents never leave your office. The RAGbase Box processes 70% of tasks locally. For the 30% routed to cloud LLMs, only anonymized excerpts are sent via enterprise APIs that contractually guarantee zero retention and zero training on your data. This architecture was designed to preserve privilege by default.

The box stays at your office with your data. Local models already installed continue working for local tasks. You lose model updates, cloud routing, monitoring, and support. The hardware remains your property after the commitment period.

For routine tasks (70% of volume), local models deliver excellent results with near-instant response times. For complex tasks, routing to the best cloud LLMs (Claude, GPT, Mistral) gives you access to frontier models. The hybrid system combines the best of both worlds.

The RAGbase Box is not locked to any model vendor. When a better local model releases (Llama, Mistral, Qwen, etc.), we deploy it on your box. For cloud, we route to the best model available — Claude, GPT, or Mistral depending on the task. Your interface and workflows stay the same — only the engine improves.

Before any data is sent, it passes through an anonymization and de-identification pipeline built into the box. Only the excerpts necessary for the request are transmitted — never full documents. We use enterprise APIs from each provider (Anthropic, OpenAI, Mistral) that contractually guarantee zero retention and zero training use.

Yes. The listed price includes the pre-configured box (Mac or Linux station depending on plan). The monthly subscription covers the software license, updates, monitoring, support, and hardware warranty. 24-month commitment.

The RAGbase Box architecture is designed for compliance with ABA Model Rules and state bar ethics opinions on AI use. Client documents stay on-premise, cloud data is anonymized, and full audit trails are maintained. We provide documentation to support your firm's compliance review.
