Lawyers. Lenders. Realtors. Accountants. Coaches and consultants. If your work rests on discretion, the ordinary AI tools were never built for you — and nobody has told you what the alternative looks like.
You have watched everyone else start using AI. You have probably wanted to. And something in you said not with my clients' material — and you were right.
The consumer apps that everyone recommends — the free and personal tiers of ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot — use your conversations to train their models by default. Some of them keep that material for years. Some have humans review a portion of it. Google's own documentation says it plainly: don't enter confidential information you wouldn't want a reviewer to see.
So you've been stuck between two bad answers: use the tools and quietly worry, or stay out entirely and watch a genuinely useful thing pass you by.
A capable AI can run entirely on your own computer. Not a company's server — your machine, on your desk. It reads what you give it, helps you think and write and clean up your notes, and nothing you say ever leaves the room. No agreement to sign, because there's no second party involved. No policy to trust, because there's no policy in play.
It runs on an ordinary laptop. It costs nothing per month. Most people have never heard of it.
Most people call this a privacy problem. It is narrower than that, and also larger. What is actually at stake is whether the way you think and work stays yours — your notes, your judgment, your half-finished drafts, the questions you would only ask in private. Privacy is simply where that becomes something you can check.
We meet over video, one to one, and we build it while you watch. You don't install anything alone, and you don't need to understand any of it in advance.
Pricing reflects levels of guidance, not levels of technology — because what you're receiving is discernment, not installation.
What you have in common: you were told, correctly, to be careful — and never told what careful actually looks like.
I don't sell software, and I don't take a commission from anyone whose product I might recommend. What I sell is judgment — and the ability to explain a genuinely technical decision in language that doesn't leave you nodding along to something you don't follow.
I'm a practitioner myself. I hold a licence as a BG Home Associate-Practitioner, I've worked with people's inner lives for years, and I run this technology privately in my own life every day — local models, my own machine, my own notes. I learned the technical side because I needed my own work to be private first.
So you get someone who has read the actual policies, uses the actual tools, and will tell you plainly when the answer is that you don't need any of this.
I am not a lawyer, and this is not legal advice. Every profession on this page carries its own duties — bar rules, safeguards requirements, disclosure statutes, codes of ethics — and those are yours to confirm with your own regulator or counsel.
What I can do is show you exactly where your words go, so that when you ask your bar association or your compliance officer, you're asking a precise question instead of a vague one. That turns out to be most of the battle.
One profession-specific warning, because it's the fastest-moving: if you're a licensed therapist in the United States, several states now regulate AI in therapy directly — including Nevada, Illinois, Maine, Colorado, Rhode Island and Vermont — and some of those rules apply regardless of whether the AI runs locally or in the cloud. Several require written client consent that a general terms-of-use agreement does not satisfy.
Anyone who tells you they can make you compliant is selling you something they can't deliver.
