Why Asterence
Asterence gives your team the AI they're already reaching for, inside the environment your business already trusts, set up and run for you, with control kept in the business.
Banning the tools doesn't work. It just pushes the same behaviour out of sight. So we made the safe path the easy one, and we made it just as good: the current generation of AI, not a cut-down model.
Security here is about where your material sits and who can see it, never about handing your people a weaker tool. Your files stay where they already live, under permissions you already control, and we never see your content.
The system
Four surfaces, one rule: answers come from your own material, and control stays in the business.
Ask
Questions in plain language, answered from your company's own material. Every answer keeps a record of which documents it came from.
Documents
Works with the documents you already have in SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams, where they live today, not on an AI company's servers.
Workspaces
Spaces for teams and projects. Access follows the permissions you already set, so people only get answers from material they can already open.
Admin
Control stays in the business: what's connected and who can use it, in one quiet view. We set it up and keep it running.
Reassurance
Your data stays yours.
The things we're comfortable putting in writing, said plainly, with nothing overstated.
Built by the team behind Veia: practical cyber, technology and AI advisory for growing Australian organisations. The same people who help firms manage AI risk, building the safe AI they can adopt. Without the theatre.
Environment
Runs in your own environment, the same one your business already uses
Content
We never see your content: your documents and conversations stay in your environment
Training
Your documents aren't used to train AI models
Permissions
Access follows the permissions you already set
Operations
We set it up and keep it running, so there's nothing for you to manage
Sources
Answers carry their sources, so claims can be checked in one step
