For attorneys & law firms
Put AI to work on your caseload. Keep every client confidence under your control.
Airgapped guides you to private AI built on FinBlade, the enterprise AI platform from our partner ICS Nett. It is deployed on-premises (air-gapped capable), in an isolated private cloud, or hybrid. Your client files are never sent to public AI services and never used to train a model. The leverage, without the exposure.
The bind every firm is in
You want what AI can do. You can't risk what it touches.
The tools are useful. The catch is that the easy ones run on someone else's servers, and a client file is the one thing you can't paste into a public chatbot.
The work is real
Drafting, document review, research memos, intake, correspondence. Hours a week your team would gladly hand off.
The exposure is real
Consumer AI sends what you type to outside servers. With privileged and confidential client information, that is a line you cannot cross.
Shadow AI is already here
If staff don't have a safe tool, some will quietly use an unsafe one. The risk isn't hypothetical, it's already in the building.
Why Airgapped
A local advisor on your side. A partner built for federal-grade security.
Airgapped is Thomas Summers, based in Franklin, Tennessee. He sits on your side of the table. He learns how your firm works, maps where client data flows, and recommends the right deployment path.
Airgapped partners with ICS Nett for one reason: both companies hold the same conviction. Data sovereignty and security come first, and they are not negotiable. When Thomas saw the depth of FinBlade and the size of the team behind it, the call was easy. He moved into an advisory role on the front end and let ICS Nett deliver.
ICS Nett has spent more than 20 years delivering secure, mission-critical IT for federal, state, and local government. Its team has supported the FBI, Department of Defense cybersecurity programs, and ATF. That same platform, built for government and enterprise work, is now available to a firm of any size.
Client work listed is ICS Nett's. Airgapped is an independent advisory firm and ICS Nett's technology partner.

Thomas maps your actual workflows: what eats your team's time, what touches client data, and what is safe to automate. If it fits, he scopes the engagement with the ICS Nett team.
Your platform is deployed
The ICS Nett team deploys FinBlade on the path you choose: on-premises, private cloud, or hybrid. They connect your existing systems, configure permissions, and train your team. It is organized around your matters and precedent, and nothing goes to public AI.
It runs, and we stay with you
Your team uses it day to day. ICS Nett provides ongoing support. Thomas remains your advocate and single point of contact as your needs grow.
What it does, privately
Real help with the work that slows your firm down.
Every one of these runs on FinBlade, inside your environment, with nothing sent to public AI.
Drafting from your precedent
Draft and revise letters, memos, and routine documents from your own precedent, in your voice. Every draft goes to a person for review.
Document review & summaries
Turn long documents, contracts, and records into the parts that matter, with the source a click away.
Permission-aware matter search
Ask plain questions across your briefs, precedent, and firm knowledge. Access is limited by role, so each person sees only the matters they are permitted to see.
Intake & client comms prep
Turn inquiries and messages into clean, structured entries and ready-to-review drafts. Nothing goes out without a human approval.
Scanned file intake
OCR turns scanned exhibits, old paper files, and handwritten notes into structured, searchable text.
A record of every action
User activity, AI queries, and system actions are logged, so you can account for what was asked and by whom.
The cost of the easy path
Convenience is not worth a breach.
- Client confidences leaving your control the moment they're pasted into a consumer tool.
- No record of what staff sent where, or to whom.
- A privilege and confidentiality question you'd rather never have to answer.
- A disclosure conversation with a client, and a trust you can't un-break.
Built private by architecture
How your data is protected, stated plainly.
Sovereign deployment
Choose on-premises, private cloud, or hybrid. On-premises, FinBlade runs on infrastructure you own and is air-gapped capable: nothing needs to leave the building. Hybrid keeps sensitive data and models on-premises and runs elastic workloads in your private cloud.
Never sent to public AI
Your information is never sent to shared, public AI services, in any deployment.
Never used for training
Your data is never used to train any model, ours or anyone else's.
Permissioned and logged
Role-based access control limits what each person can see and do. User activity, AI queries, and system actions are logged for audit. Data is encrypted with AES-256.
Independently audited hosting
Your private cloud environment is isolated, single-tenant, and runs on independently audited infrastructure matched to your requirements. Before you sign, we put in writing exactly which audits and certifications cover your environment.
We walk through exactly how an engagement fits the confidentiality duties attorneys carry, including your state's version of Model Rule 1.6, on a free call, where we can speak to your specific setup. We don't wave badges. We show you the real architecture and document the exact data routing in writing, so you and your ethics counsel can evaluate it directly.
Attorney questions
The things firms ask first.
Does client data ever leave my firm?
Not to public AI, in any deployment. On-premises, FinBlade runs on infrastructure you own and is air-gapped capable, so nothing needs to leave the building. Your private cloud environment is isolated, single-tenant, and runs on independently audited infrastructure matched to your requirements. Before you sign, we put in writing exactly which audits and certifications cover your environment. Either way, the exact data routing is documented in writing.
Who builds and supports this?
ICS Nett, Airgapped's technology partner. Its team deploys FinBlade, connects your existing systems, configures permissions, trains your staff, and provides ongoing support. Thomas stays your advocate and single point of contact the whole way, before and after launch, so your firm always has one person to call.
What can it actually do for a firm?
Drafting from your own precedent, document review and summarization, permission-aware search across your matters and firm knowledge, OCR intake of scanned files, and intake and correspondence prep with human approval. Every query and action is logged.
Does using AI put privilege at risk?
That is a question for your ethics counsel, and we would never pretend otherwise. What we can tell you is architectural: client information is never disclosed to a public AI service, access is limited by role, every action is logged, and the exact data routing is documented in writing so you and your ethics counsel can evaluate it directly.
Which deployment is right for us?
It depends on your data rules, your IT, and how you work. On-premises runs FinBlade on infrastructure you own and is air-gapped capable, the strongest posture for the most sensitive client work. Private cloud is an isolated, single-tenant environment managed for you. Hybrid keeps sensitive data and models on-premises and runs elastic workloads in your private cloud. Thomas recommends a path on the call, and the guarantee is the same in all three.
