Before this, I built classified redaction systems for Canadian intelligence, the kind of environment where data moves between jurisdictions constantly and one mistake isn't a fine, it's a real problem. Every transfer had to be checked, reasoned about, and logged, not because anyone assumed bad intent, but because "trust me" isn't a control.

When I started talking to law firms, I kept hearing the same shape of problem. They share just as much sensitive material (litigation, expert witnesses, discovery) and they're bound by real regulation, but nobody had built tooling for it. Most existing tools either block and hold everything or don't watch at all. Now AI adds a door nobody's watching either.
