Confidentiality, required
ABA Model Rule 1.6 requires reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized disclosure of client information. The system's environment and access rules support that effort.
Private AI / law firms / the United States
Private AI for law firms in the US, built around Rule 1.6.
Private AI for US law firms: precedent search, obligations, and first drafts from approved firm material. ABA Model Rule 1.6 requires lawyers to make reasonable efforts to protect client information — the system is built so matter material stays inside the firm's environment with a documented data path.

Why it matters here
The US rules on client data come from the profession itself.
With no single federal privacy law, confidentiality duties and state rules are the frame the system is built inside.
Professional duties
State bars enforce the rules of professional conduct. Matter material stays in the firm's environment, under the firm's control.
State privacy laws
California, Colorado, and other states add their own privacy statutes. The documented data path is reviewable against whichever apply.
What teams use it for
Less searching. More time on the work.
The assistant supports the firm. It does not replace legal advice, review, or sign-off.
Your approved documents
Precedents, policies, engagement letters, and matter material.
Clear boundaries
Separate users, teams, matters, and sources where the workflow requires it.
A system you can own
Runbook, training, credentials, source map, tests, and known limitations.
First project
Start with one practice group.
A small, approved archive — not the entire matter history on day one.
Up to 10 people
One person responsible for feedback and access.
A small approved archive
Precedents, policies, and matter material that the practice group actually searches.
Read-only with sources
Source references and a clear “not found” boundary.
Expand what works
Other teams, sources, languages, or actions after the first workflow works.
Why trust Pristine3D?
We build and operate production software.
Pristine3D Ltd builds and operates live digital products, and we run private AI workflows internally as part of our own operations. We scope around your real workflow: the documents you own, the questions your team asks, and the access boundary you approve. Based in Lagos, Nigeria, we work remotely with clients worldwide.
We already run live products
Based in Lagos, Nigeria, Pristine3D currently builds and operates smartcards.ng, venu.ng, photoshoot.ng, and ugc.ng in production.
We start with the actual workflow
One input, one output, one test set, and one person who owns the result. We scope a real workflow instead of a transformation programme.
The boundary stays visible
Cloud, model, storage, and messaging accounts stay in your name. The chosen data path, access rules, test record, documentation, and training are part of the agreed scope.

Full pricing and what changes the quote
Straight answers
Common questions.
Can client data stay in the US?
Yes. Hosting in a US region such as us-east-1 (Virginia) or us-west-2 (Oregon) is the default, with on-prem for stricter requirements.
How does Rule 1.6 fit?
The duty belongs to the lawyer. The system supports it with controlled access, firm-owned accounts, and a documented data path.
Does the assistant give legal advice?
No. It finds and drafts from the firm's own material. Advice and sign-off stay with the firm.
Do invoices come in US dollars?
Yes, from $3,500 for a first workflow, with the naira floor unchanged.
Own your knowledge base
The model is not the product. The knowledge base is.
Documents, the retrieval index, access rules, and the workflows built around them are the asset, and they compound. We deploy so the knowledge base stays yours: on your accounts, in the environment you choose, under access rules your team defines. The model behind the answers is a connector, so the knowledge base moves with you, not with a vendor.
Your corpus, your index
The document store, metadata, and retrieval setup live on accounts you own. No vendor holds the corpus.
Models are swappable parts
Change the model provider, move regions, or go local without rebuilding the knowledge base or the workflow.
The knowledge base is the alpha
Every improvement to the corpus improves the answers, and the improvement stays with you, not with a vendor.
