Private Beta EU Data Sovereignty

Would you let a foreign government read your client's research file?

That's what happens when you use AI research tools built on US infrastructure. The CLOUD Act gives US authorities access to any data processed by US-controlled companies — regardless of where the servers sit. LumaVista keeps your research in European jurisdiction, encrypted with keys only you control.

EU-only infrastructure No master decryption key Per-user encrypted databases On-premise available
The Problem

Your research queries reveal more than your results

"What are the regulatory risks of [client]'s merger with [target]?"

That single query tells anyone who reads it exactly what you're working on, for whom, and why. Every major AI research tool — Perplexity, ChatGPT, Google — processes these queries on US-controlled infrastructure.

Under the CLOUD Act, US authorities can compel any US-controlled company to hand over data, regardless of where the servers physically sit. Under FISA Section 702, warrantless surveillance of non-US persons is routine. Using "EU region" on AWS or Azure changes the server location but not the jurisdiction.

The Solution

Research that stays privileged

CLOUD Act-Proof Architecture

Client names, matter details, competitive intelligence — your research queries reveal what you're investigating and for whom. LumaVista processes everything within EU jurisdiction, with zero data flowing to US-controlled providers.

AI Agents That Go Deep

Not a chatbot. A team of 13 specialized agents — each matched to the right model for its task. A reasoning model for analysis, a fast model for search, a large model for synthesis. Producing cited reports with full evidence trails. Watch the research unfold in real time. Steer it when needed.

Device-Controlled Encryption

Your encryption keys live in your phone's hardware security chip. Not on our servers, not in a backup, not accessible to our employees. Even we can't read your data.

Compliance by Architecture

GDPR deletion is rm -rf. Per-user databases mean no data co-mingling. Audit trails log every security decision. Model provenance tracks which AI processed your data and where.

How It Works

From question to cited report

1

Ask your question

Describe your research goal — from regulatory analysis to competitive due diligence to literature review.

2

Agents research — you watch

Specialized agents decompose, search, validate, and synthesize. Watch the research graph unfold. Intervene when you want.

3

Get a cited report

A comprehensive report with every claim linked to its source. Explore the evidence trail, or export and share.

Frequently asked

Why not just use Perplexity or ChatGPT?
Those tools process your queries on US-controlled infrastructure, accessible to US authorities under the CLOUD Act. If your research involves client-privileged, regulated, or competitively sensitive information, that's a jurisdictional risk — not just a privacy preference.
What AI models do you use?
We run multiple open-source models on dedicated GPU servers in EU data centers — each selected for the task at hand. A reasoning model for analysis, a fast model for search queries, a large model for synthesis. No third-party inference API, no external company ever sees your queries. For on-premise deployments, you can bring any models you choose.
Do you have SOC 2 / ISO 27001?
We're pursuing both certifications. Our security whitepaper provides full technical transparency — including encryption architecture, threat model, and key management. Many evaluators have found this architectural transparency more useful than a certification checkbox.
What if I lose my device?
Enroll multiple devices, or print a recovery QR code protected by a password you choose. If all recovery methods are lost, your data is irrecoverable — by design. We don't hold a master key.

Your research deserves the same protection as your client files.
