C4 STUDIOS · PRIVATE AI SYSTEMS

Private AI for your practice.

Capable AI running entirely on your own hardware, in your own office. Nothing leaves the building.

Demonstration: the assistant answers a contract question with cited sources, entirely on the local network. Nothing is sent outside the building.
The problem

Most AI tools work by sending your information to someone else’s servers. For an accounting, legal or financial practice — insolvency and investment firms included — holding confidential client files and records, that sits awkwardly against confidentiality and privacy obligations. So most practices that would benefit simply hold back.

What we do

We supply, install and manage AI systems that run on a dedicated machine inside your office. Your documents are indexed locally and your questions are answered locally, by the strongest openly available models. Private by design, not by policy.

  • Private assistant over your own documents, with sources
  • Search across your files and matters, with citations
  • Drafting of correspondence and file notes
  • Local audit log of every query
  • Installation, training and a 30-day tuning period

Pricing in AUD ex GST, quoted to fit each practice. Upfront covers the hardware (yours to keep), installation, configuration, team training and a 30-day tuning period. Monthly care covers monitoring, updates, model upgrades and support. Hardware pricing moves with the memory market, so supplied-hardware quotes are held for 14 days. Cancel anytime: your system keeps working, you simply stop receiving updates and support.

How it stays private
  • A dedicated machine in your office, owned by you outright
  • Runs on your local network; no internet connection required to operate
  • No cloud AI accounts, no per-question fees, no data sharing
  • Nothing is ever sent to a third-party AI provider
What your team can do
  • Ask questions across your own documents and get answers with sources
  • Summarise and review documents before the detailed read
  • Draft correspondence, file notes and first-pass documents
  • Search whole folders of documents at once, not one file at a time
  • Review a local audit log of every query: who asked what, and when
What it is, and what it isn’t

It is a capable private assistant for everyday document work. It is not a replacement for professional judgement, and it is not a frontier cloud model. It also does not move your existing files out of Microsoft's or Google's cloud, it simply adds no new exposure of its own. If your needs are better served another way, we will say so plainly.

Who is behind it

Caleb Scott, founder of C4 Studios, a Perth software studio, and a current JD candidate at UWA — so confidentiality, careful data handling and a clear record are treated as first principles, not add-ons. Every system is built and supported locally in Perth. The first system is being built now for a Perth accounting practice with a 400-client book, running on the practice's own hardware.

The next step is a 15-minute conversation.

No obligation, and a straight answer either way. Bring whoever you trust to weigh it up — your IT provider included.
