Private AI: Custom AI Built Inside Your Tenant
Firmwerx builds custom AI applications that run inside your cloud tenant. Your data stays where it already lives, under your keys, governed by your access controls. We built our practice around firms whose buyers have a fiduciary, contractual, or statutory reason their data cannot leave their control.
What Private AI Means at Firmwerx
Deployed in your cloud tenant
In tenant-deployed configurations, AI runs inside your Azure, AWS, or GCP subscription. Your IT owns the infrastructure. Your security team owns the controls. Application data stays in the environment it already lives in.
Bring your own keys
Customer-managed encryption keys for data at rest and in transit. Rotate them on your schedule. Revoke them and the system goes dark.
No training on your data
We use enterprise model endpoints such as Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, and private Anthropic where prompts and outputs are contractually excluded from model training.
Audit logs and access traces
Every prompt, retrieval, and output is logged with user, timestamp, and source documents for compliance, eDiscovery, and LP reporting needs.
Role-based access control
Permissions inherit from your existing identity provider including Entra ID, Okta, and Google Workspace.
Private network paths
VPC peering, private endpoints, and IP allowlisting keep AI traffic off the public internet. Air-gapped deployment available for the most sensitive engagements.
Deployment Patterns
Your Cloud, Your Tenant
We deploy the application, vector store, and AI orchestration inside your existing cloud subscription. In this pattern, Firmwerx does not take custody of your application data. Standard pattern for private equity firms, AmLaw 200 firms, and any client with a CISO.
Private Endpoints
Inference runs against your private instance of Azure OpenAI or AWS Bedrock with VPC peering and customer-managed keys. Data residency stays in the region you specify.
Air-Gapped Deployment
Fully isolated instance with no public network egress, dedicated hardware, and on-prem options where required. Used for matters under protective order and bet-the-firm engagements.
Who Builds Private AI With Firmwerx
We work with regulated practices where confidentiality is the product: private equity firms, law firms, financial advisors, insurance companies, management consulting firms, and accounting firms.
