On-site document AI for anyone with sensitive files

Ask your files anything. They never leave the building.

FileIQ reads your contracts, invoices, policies and reports, then answers plain-English questions with the source page attached. Everything runs on a workstation in your office. No cloud AI is involved at any step.

100% on-site. No cloud AI, by design.

FileIQ runs entirely on hardware in your building. It does not connect to OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Google Gemini, Anthropic or any other cloud AI service, and it can't be configured to.

  • Your documents stay put. Files, search index and answers live on your own machine and your own SQL Server.
  • No internet needed to answer. The language model runs locally, so questions work with the network unplugged.
  • No API keys or usage bills. There is no outside AI account to manage, audit or pay per question.

Looking for something that plugs into ChatGPT or another cloud AI? FileIQ isn't the right fit, and we'll tell you that on the first call.

Who it's for

Built for organizations whose documents can't go to the cloud.

If a client, regulator or your own policy says "keep it in-house," FileIQ was built for you.

How it works

Point it at your file shares. Ask questions in a browser.

FileIQ installs as a Windows service and a web app inside your network. It does the heavy reading in the background, so answers come back in seconds.

It reads everything

Connectors pull from file shares and document folders. PDFs, Word files and other documents are parsed and tagged with names, dates and amounts.

It indexes by meaning

Every document is embedded for semantic search, so "notice period" finds "written notice of termination" even when the words differ.

It answers with sources

A local language model writes the answer and cites the file and page it came from. Click a citation to open the original.

Built for IT

Security that matches how your org chart already works.

Metadata

Automatic field extractionNames, dates and other key details are pulled out of every document so you can filter and search on them.

Access

Department-level permissionsHR sees HR files. Legal sees legal files. Answers never draw on documents a user isn't allowed to open.

Data

Runs on SQL ServerIndex and metadata live in a database your team already knows how to back up and audit.

Admin

Dashboard and controlsManage sources, watch indexing progress, and review what's been processed from one admin screen.

Sources

ConnectorsBring in documents from the places your team already stores them, and keep the index current as files change.

Network

No cloud AI connectionsFileIQ never calls an outside AI service. No API keys, no per-question fees, no third party ever sees a page of your data.

Hardware

One desktop-sized machine runs the whole thing.

A new class of compact AI workstations can run large language models locally that used to need a data center. FileIQ is tuned for them.
