Data and knowledge
Decide what an Inbox receives, where records remain, how long they are retained and which purpose allows their use.
Digital sovereignty
Choose where intelligence runs. Keep authority with the business.
Digital sovereignty is not isolation. It is the ability to decide where data and the runtime live, which AI or external capability may be used, what context may cross a boundary and how every result returns to your governance.
- Control each operating context
- Keep providers replaceable
- Share minimum necessary context
- Retain decision evidence
Control, without isolation
Connect the best capabilities without giving them ownership of the operation.
The provider that stores data, runs infrastructure or performs inference does not need to own your business rules. DataInbox keeps those rules close to the operating context.
Each request can be evaluated before context leaves an Inbox. Each result can be evaluated again before it changes business state or reaches a person.
Technology may change. Your business contract remains stable and enforceable.
Six layers of control
Sovereignty becomes useful when choices are operational.
A deployment location matters, but it is only one part of control. Data, identity, capabilities, movement and evidence need explicit conditions too.
Runtime and infrastructure
Choose an agreed managed, regional or customer-controlled architecture that fits the operating and contractual context.
AI and external capabilities
Select which model, provider, private endpoint or Companion may perform a task and which minimum context it may receive.
Identity and authority
Keep access, purpose, approval and action rights with the business instead of embedding them in an AI provider.
Movement and boundaries
Let separate Inboxes exchange only permitted messages, references and results without centralising every source record.
Evidence and change
Retain the origin, policy decision, capability, approval, outcome and configuration change needed for accountability.
Provider-independent by design
Move the capability. Keep the operating contract.
An AI Companion can call one provider or route across several. DataInbox can also choose between approved Companions for cost, output quality, sensitivity, geography or another company-defined condition.
- 01
Business authority
Schemas, purposes, permissions, approvals and result conditions remain part of the Inbox configuration.
- 02
Replaceable capability
AI, storage, routing and external services can change when the approved architecture changes.
- 03
Minimum necessary context
A capability receives the task and permitted fields it needs, not automatic access to the complete business environment.
- 04
Result returns to governance
The output becomes a business message that can be validated, approved, rejected or used by deterministic rules.
Deployment is an architecture choice
Choose a runtime model that matches the responsibility.
Avoid vague promises such as “host anywhere”. Location, control and accountability only become real when the operating model is agreed and supported.
Managed SaaS
A defined managed runtime
The current managed SaaS runtime configuration is hosted on DigitalOcean. Region, service boundaries and responsibilities are part of the agreed service architecture.
Selected architecture
Regional or data-centre requirements
Other arrangements can be designed around selected regions or data centres when they are part of the agreed technical and operational scope.
Customer control
Infrastructure under your responsibility
Customer-controlled deployment can be considered where the product architecture, operations, support, security and service model are explicitly agreed.
Your infrastructure can vary. Your authority should not.
Define the boundaries for one real operating context, then connect only the data and capabilities required to make it work.
