Sovereign document intelligence · Cayman-registered, globally deployable

On-premise document AI for regulated industries.

OrcaVaults reads, summarises and extracts from your most sensitive documents on hardware that never leaves your building. Every action is recorded in a tamper-evident audit log you can defend to the Office of the Ombudsman, CIMA or your regulator.

Cayman-registered. Air-gapped by design. Aligned to the Data Protection Act (2021 Revision) and the CIMA Statement of Guidance on Outsourcing for Regulated Entities (April 2023).

Why OrcaVaults

Sovereign

Runs on your hardware in your building. No cloud round-trip. No external API. No vendor lock-in.

Auditable

Every extraction, summary and decision is signed and recorded in a tamper-evident audit log. Verifiable cryptographically.

Air-gapped

Default deployment has no outbound network connections. Verifiable by your IT team with standard tools.

Jurisdictionally aligned

Cayman-registered company. Built against Cayman law as the flagship reference. CIMA SOG-aligned. Bonfire-registered. Deployable in any jurisdiction with equivalent data-residency requirements.

Built for: DPA (2021 Revision) CIMA Outsourcing SOG · April 2023 CIMA Cybersecurity Rule · April 2023 BOTA (2026 Revision) Procurement Act (2023 Revision) WCAG 2.2 AA

The problem

Cloud AI is closed for regulated practices everywhere.

Sending client documents, KYC packs, structure charts and trust deeds through a cloud LLM is a cross-border transfer. Under data-protection law on both sides of the Atlantic, that triggers obligations your client never asked you to take on. Under outsourcing rules from CIMA, the FCA, FINMA and equivalents, it puts your Governing Body on the hook for vendors they cannot inspect. The documents themselves are sensitive enough that the wrong vendor choice has career-adjacent consequences.

For law firms

Harvey, Spellbook and CoCounsel work for firms whose clients are comfortable with cloud-hosted AI. For firms whose practice — trust administration, fund formation, private client, regulated M&A — involves documents that contractually cannot leave the firm's network, OrcaVaults is the alternative. Same workflow speed; data never leaves the building.

For regulated finance

The Cayman Islands Monetary Authority's Outsourcing SOG (April 2023) requires a contractual right of regulator inspection over your service provider. The FCA, FINMA, BaFin, MAS and equivalents demand the same. No major cloud LLM vendor will sign that clause for a small regulated entity. We do, by default, because there is no cloud to inspect.

For government

FOI redaction, internal investigations, classified policy work, beneficial-ownership audit. None of it can leave the network. None of it should leave the building. The Cayman Islands Government is our flagship reference market; the architecture deploys identically in any jurisdiction with equivalent data-residency requirements.

How OrcaVaults works

Three steps. One appliance. One signed audit log.

OrcaVaults is a single appliance you operate inside your network. There is no cloud component. There is no external API. The poetry of the architecture is the absence of complexity.

Ingest on your hardware

Drop documents into a watch-folder, drag-and-drop, or pipe them in from your existing document management system. OrcaVaults reads them locally — they never traverse the internet.

Extract, summarise, classify

Local LLMs running on your GPUs perform extraction, structured summary, classification and search. Your analysts steer the model with reusable templates that capture domain expertise.

Audit-evident output

Every action — read, extract, edit, export — is signed and written to an append-only Merkle audit log on your storage. Cryptographically verifiable. Defensible to your regulator.

Leadership

Named. Cayman-registered. Accountable.

Procurement Officers, Data Protection Officers and CIMA-supervised CFOs need to know who they are dealing with. Anonymous founders fail their basic vendor screening. So we don't do that.
