FogBox

Private AI for small businesses

AI that works for your business, and stays inside it.

FogBox is a private AI system we install in your office, set up around how you work, and look after for you. Your files stay in your building. The monthly price stays the same.

Made for small offices that handle sensitive paperwork: law firms, accountants, clinics, contractors and agencies.

How FogBox keeps your information inside your office Your team and your files both connect to the FogBox machine inside your office. The connection to outside cloud services is blocked.

Sound familiar?

You want the help of AI. Not the catches.

  • You can’t paste client information into a public chatbot.

    Contracts, medical notes, financial records. Once they’re typed into someone else’s service, they’re out of your hands. So your team either goes without, or uses it quietly and hopes for the best.

  • The subscriptions keep multiplying.

    A plan for each person, extras for the good features, usage fees on top. It’s hard to predict next month’s bill, and harder to tell whether it’s worth it.

  • Nobody here has time to set it up.

    You run a business, not an IT department. Choosing the tools, connecting them to your files and keeping them working never makes it to the top of the list.

What it does

Everyday work, done in minutes.

Your team asks in plain English. FogBox answers from your own files, in your own style. You check the work, then send it.

Quotes and proposals

First drafts built from your past jobs, written the way you write.

“Write a quote for a kitchen remodel like the Alvarez job.”

Customer emails

It reads the question, finds the answer in your records and drafts the reply.

“Reply to Mr. Chen about his invoice from March.”

Finding things

Search every document, email and spreadsheet by asking, not by digging through folders.

“What did we agree with Hollis Supply last spring?”

Paperwork

Plain-English summaries of long contracts, notes from meetings, and first drafts of routine forms.

“Summarize this lease and flag anything unusual.”

Questions from your own team

New hires get answers about your policies and procedures without interrupting anyone.

“How do we handle a refund after 30 days?”

Whatever comes next

As you find new uses, we add them. Most customers start with one or two and grow from there.

Private by design

Your files never leave the building.

FogBox runs on a machine in your office. When someone asks it a question, the answer is worked out right there, on your network, using your files. Nothing is sent to a cloud service, and nothing is used to train anyone else’s AI.

  • No third party sees your records.Client information stays where you put it.
  • No terms to watch.There’s no provider changing the rules on you after you’ve built your routine around them.
  • An easy answer for clients.When someone asks where their information goes, you can tell them: nowhere.

How it works

We do the setup. You do the asking.

Most businesses are up and running in about two weeks.

  1. A short call

    Tell us how your business runs and where the time goes. About half an hour. No homework, no jargon.

  2. We build it around you

    We prepare the system and teach it your business: your services, your policies, your way of writing.

  3. We install it

    We set it up in your office and walk your team through it. Most people are comfortable the first day.

  4. We keep it running

    Updates, improvements and a real person to call. It’s all covered by the monthly fee.

The difference

The monthly fee covers the machine, setup, updates and support. The amount depends on your business, so we’ll give you a number after a short call.

Questions

The things owners ask first.

We’re not a technical company. Can we really do this?

That’s who it’s built for. You don’t manage anything. Your team types a question and gets an answer. The machine, the software and the upkeep are our job.

How is this different from ChatGPT?

ChatGPT is a shared public service: your questions and files go through its servers, and you pay by the person or by the use. FogBox is a system built for your company alone. It runs in your office, knows your business, and costs the same every month.

What does it cost?

A flat monthly fee that covers the machine, setup, updates and support. There are no per-use charges. The amount depends on your business, so we quote it after a short call, before you commit to anything.

What happens to our data?

It stays on the machine, on your network. Nothing is sent to a third party. If you ever stop, we wipe the system and hand everything back.

Can we start small?

Yes. Most customers begin with customer emails and finding documents, then add more as they see what helps.

What if we outgrow it?

We’ll tell you before you notice. Upgrades are part of looking after your system, not a sales pitch.

Tell us about your business.

A short email is enough. We’ll write back with a few questions, not a sales pitch, and tell you what FogBox would do for you.
