Private AI, built for privileged work.

Read the whole case, surface what matters, and keep every output under attorney control — inside your own AWS account.

🔒 Your AWS account · Your keys · Zero operator access · Every AI output attorney-approved

The problem

The one thing you can't paste into a public chatbot: your client's file.

Sending privileged material to a public AI service can constitute a third-party disclosure — and a third-party disclosure can waive the attorney–client privilege you are paid to protect. The model provider's servers, retention policies, and training pipelines are all outside your control.

That is why most firms either ban AI outright or use it only on matters where it adds the least value. The files where AI would help most — depositions, medical records, discovery — are exactly the files you can't risk.

CounselVeil takes a different path: the AI comes to your data. It runs inside your own AWS account, so privileged material never crosses your firm's boundary.

How it works

Privacy first. Then capability. Always under control.

1 · Privacy

Runs inside your AWS account

  • Deployed into your own AWS account — privileged material never leaves your boundary.
  • Encrypted with your own customer-managed KMS keys (BYOK).
  • PII Shield masks personal identifiers before the model ever sees a document — context preserved, identity protected.
  • AWS Bedrock (Claude) in-region (us-east-1) over PrivateLink: zero data retention, never trained on.

2 · Capability

Reads the whole case — and finds what matters

  • Link a matter from Clio and CounselVeil ingests the whole case, including OCR of a 30-page scanned deposition.
  • Cross-document analysis surfaces what a tired human misses: a bollard installed at 31″ where the permit required 48″ — with no change order on file.
  • A timeline contradiction buried across three separate documents.
  • A summary-judgment deadline the file had wrong by three months, recomputed from the judge’s part rules.

3 · Control

AI proposes. Only an attorney approves.

  • Findings are append-only and versioned; every finding links straight to its source page.
  • Drafts are built only from findings an attorney accepted — watermarked until approved.
  • Nothing exports without attorney approval, and every decision lands in the audit trail.
The full story · the problem, the shield, the findings, the approval.

Security & privacy

Built so that privilege survives the AI.

Every architectural choice follows one rule: your client's data stays inside your firm's boundary, and no one — including us — can read it.

Your account, your keys

The entire application — pipeline, database, storage — is deployed into your own AWS account. Data is encrypted with customer-managed KMS keys (BYOK) that you control and can revoke.

The model never keeps your data

AI runs on AWS Bedrock (Claude) in-region (us-east-1), reached over PrivateLink — traffic never touches the public internet. Zero data retention; never used for training.

PII masked before the model

PII Shield replaces names, dates of birth, addresses, and other identifiers before any model call, and restores them only inside your account afterward. Context is preserved; identity is protected.

Zero operator access

Our operators cannot decrypt your data: KMS decrypt is denied by policy, and operational logs are metadata-only. Break-glass access requires your explicit approval, is time-boxed, and is fully logged.

Append-only audit trail

Every extraction, model call, and approval is recorded in an immutable, append-only audit log — who saw what, what the AI proposed, and what the attorney decided, with timestamps.

Attorney-gated outputs

Findings and drafts are proposals until an attorney approves them. Nothing is exported, written back, or treated as work product without that approval.

Who it's for

For firms whose files are too privileged for public AI.

Plaintiff personal-injury firms

Depositions, medical records, permits, discovery — CounselVeil reads them together and surfaces the liability theory, the smoking gun, and the missing evidence, so you build the case faster.

Insurance-defense practices

The same cross-document engine, pointed the other way: contradictions, treatment gaps, and exposure signals — every one linked to its source page and gated by attorney review.

“AI proposes. Only an attorney approves.” — that single rule is why CounselVeil fits the courthouse table, not just the demo room.
