Air-gapped · No outbound path
Air-gapped legal AI, for files that cannot travel.
Some matters cannot go on a network at any price. HIGHCOURT was built for those first, and the rest of the product inherited the constraint.
Built for the constraint, not adapted to it
An air-gapped mode bolted onto a cloud product is a smaller cloud product. This started at the other end.
No outbound requirement
Nothing in the analysis path needs the internet. The machine can sit with its network adapter disabled and lose no capability.
Local authority corpus
Because the case law is on the machine, research and citation checking survive the air gap — the usual reason offline tools fall back to "ask the model".
Deliberate update delivery
Updates arrive by verified physical delivery, applied when the firm chooses. An air-gapped machine that could update itself would not be air-gapped.
Auditable at rest
What is on the disk is the whole system. There is no remote component whose behaviour has to be taken on trust.
What stays true on every matter
These do not change by practice area, firm size, or the question asked.
Ask the hard version of the question.
If you have a matter that cannot touch a network, bring that constraint to the briefing. It is the one this product was designed around.

The answers below are specific to this page’s subject.
Can the machine be fully disconnected?
Yes. It is designed to run with no internet connection at all, and we recommend keeping it offline. Whether it sits on the firm's LAN is the firm's own decision.
How do we get new case law onto an air-gapped machine?
Through the same deliberate, verified delivery path as software updates — applied on the firm's schedule rather than pushed automatically.
Does an air gap cost us capability?
Not for the analysis. The models and the corpus are local, so the work it does does not depend on reaching anything.
Is this suitable for government or defence-adjacent work?
The architecture is the one those environments ask for — no outbound path, firm-owned hardware, auditable at rest. Whether it meets a specific accreditation is a question for your security officer, and we will answer it directly.
