Air-gapped intelligence for sensitive legal and financial deal rooms

Boutique legal and M&A advisory teams lose hundreds of billable hours manually analyzing sensitive client filings because strict non-disclosure agreements prohibit uploading documents to public cloud endpoints.

Vaultlet transforms a firm's existing fleet of Apple Silicon hardware into a zero-egress document intelligence cluster managed directly from the macOS menu bar. By leveraging local KV-caching and hardware-accelerated batching, fee-earners can synthesize thousands of confidential PDF pages instantly with zero monthly API token fees. Crucially, client data never leaves the physical RAM of the firm's Mac devices, satisfying even the most aggressive regulatory compliance audits.

Our goal is to establish the global infrastructure standard for localized, zero-trust enterprise document processing.

Problem
  • When I manage high-stakes M&A due diligence, I want to synthesize thousands of pages of confidential financial reports, but strict client NDAs forbid uploading raw data to cloud APIs, causing $40k+ in delayed billing cycles.
  • Why Now: Apple Silicon M3/M4 chips provide massive unified memory bands capable of running frontier-class models locally at zero operational API cost.
  • When I audit sensitive healthcare or legal contracts, I want to query cross-document clauses instantly, but desktop search software lacks context synthesis while web interfaces leak metadata.
  • When I provision software for senior partners, I want to deploy zero-trust analytical capabilities, but enterprise cloud subscriptions cost $50k+ annually with severe compliance overhead.
  • Existing Alternatives: Manual associate document review, legacy desktop text keyword search, or unauthorized consumer web interfaces that violate client privacy policies.
Solution
  • High-Level Concept: Raycast for enterprise confidential document synthesis
  • Native macOS menu bar control plane with localized continuous batching for instant multi-document query resolution.
  • Tiered SSD KV-caching engine that persists document context locally across restarts without consuming unified RAM.
  • Automated cryptographic verification and SOC2-compliant local audit logger for zero-egress compliance proof.
Distribution
  • Early Adopters: Managing partners and IT Directors at boutique M&A advisory, private equity, and boutique litigation firms.
  • Direct account-based outreach to Chief Information Security Officers in legal tech and private wealth management networks.
  • Co-marketing initiatives with macOS enterprise fleet management platforms like Jamf and Kandji.
Pricing
  • Value Ladder: Pro Local Seat ($80/month per seat)
  • Team Fleet Node ($300/month for 5 seats)
  • Enterprise Fleet ($1.5k/month for custom local model weights and priority SLA).
  • One Metric That Matters: Number of active local document queries processed per active user seat weekly.
  • Market Sizing: 40k mid-market legal and financial advisory firms x 10 seats average x $300/month = $1.4B SAM; Target Year 1 revenue of $1.2M SOM.
Scale Costs
  • Deep C++/Metal optimization engineering personnel for high-throughput Apple Silicon hardware performance.
  • Third-party penetration testing and enterprise compliance certifications like SOC2 Type II and ISO27001.
  • Proprietary fine-tuning pipelines for specialized legal, medical, and financial domain model weights.
