How contract data is handled — three options to match your security and control needs.
We build the tool and hand it to your IT team. You run it on your own servers with full control. Best for companies with dedicated IT staff.
We host and manage everything. You just open a link and use it — nothing to install, nothing to maintain.
We host and manage the app, but AI runs in your own private cloud account. You get the ease of us managing it with the security of your own environment.
Each option handles your contract data differently. The color coding below shows who touches your data at each step.
You run the app — choose where the AI runs
We build the tool and deliver it to your team. Your IT staff installs it on your own server. The app runs on your equipment, but the AI still needs to run somewhere — you choose: either Anthropic's service (same as Standard) or your own private AWS account (same as Private Cloud). The difference from the other options is that Toolbelt Digital is not involved — your team controls the app, the connection to the AI, and all the data.
Your contract is sent out for analysis and comes back to you
You open a link in your browser and upload a contract. Our server sends it to Anthropic (the company behind the AI) for analysis. The AI reads the contract, identifies risks, and sends the results back to you. Anthropic does not use your contract to train their AI — it's processed, then deleted after 30 days. All data is encrypted during transfer, meaning no one can intercept it along the way.
The AI comes to your environment — your contract never leaves
You use the tool the same way as Standard — open a link, upload a contract. The difference is where the AI runs. Instead of sending your contract to Anthropic, we route it to your own private environment on AWS (Amazon's cloud platform). The same AI model analyzes it, but it runs inside your own account that only you have access to. Anthropic never sees your data. Amazon cannot read your contracts — they provide the computing power, but your data is encrypted and inaccessible to them. Nothing is stored after processing. We set everything up and manage it — you just use the tool.

With the Private Cloud option, each customer gets their own completely separate environment. We manage the platform and keep everything running, but your data is walled off — your contracts never touch another company's environment.
