About Counsel
Counsel is a private AI assistant designed for security and compliance work. It provides answers grounded exclusively in a user-curated library of security frameworks and uploaded documents, with every claim cited inline for verification. The tool operates entirely within Soveryne Cloud, ensuring data remains within EU jurisdiction. It includes a ready compliance knowledge base covering frameworks such as CRA, DORA, GDPR, ISO/IEC, NEN, NIS2, and NIST, with additional standards added over time. Users can upload policies, runbooks, and contracts, which are encrypted at rest and indexed for the assistant to reference. Per-chat source control allows precise selection of frameworks and documents for each conversation, overriding default settings as needed. The assistant answers in plain language while maintaining traceability to original sources, enabling auditable compliance evidence.
