Axon · for consultants and advisors

AI you can use on documents under NDA.

Axon reads the contracts, reports, policies and records already on your machine. Every answer cites its source and opens to the exact lines on the page. It answers with a model running on your own machine, so nothing leaves your laptop.

The Axon desktop app: a question about how long API batch production records must be retained, answered with a numbered citation, and the ICH Q7 PDF open alongside with the cited passage highlighted on page 12
A question about record retention, answered from ICH Q7 — the citation opens the source at §6.13 with the passage highlighted. PDFs get highlights; Word, Excel and PowerPoint sources cite to the section, sheet and row instead.

And it tells you when the answer isn’t there

Asked something the documents don’t cover, Axon says so — and shows what it did find, so you can see it looked. For work that gets reviewed, a confident wrong answer is the expensive failure.

Axon answering that the indexed documents contain no reporting timelines for adverse reactions, with the retrieval panel showing the nearest passage it found
A pharmacovigilance question, asked of a GMP document set. The nearest passage sat at distance 0.722 and was about complaints and recalls — close, and not an answer.

Which revision was that answer based on?

Axon records every question, every answer, and each passage behind it — including the ones it retrieved and rejected as too weak. Each carries the hash the file had at the time you asked. Compare it later and the record tells you what has moved underneath you.

Asked

What notice is required to terminate, and are the agreed rates fixed for the term?

Answered

Sixty days' written notice [1], and the rates are held for the initial term [3]. The statement of work adds nothing that overrides either [2]. A 30-day notice figure appears only in an earlier draft that was never executed.

The master agreement has been revised since that answer was given. A reviewer following the citation today reads something else — and concludes the answer was wrong. The record is what sends them back to look.

Built for the documents this work actually involves

Reads what you already have

PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint and CSV — plus scanned pages through OCR, badged as OCR in the citation so you always know when text was inferred rather than read. Point it at the folder where the client’s files already live; nothing is copied, so no second version drifts away from the one you work in.

It says when it doesn’t know

When nothing retrieved is close enough to the question, Axon says so and shows what it found and why it wasn’t enough. For work that gets reviewed, a confident wrong answer is the expensive failure.

One client at a time

A conversation retrieves from its own project and no other, so one engagement’s documents can’t ground another’s answer. Per-project ignore rules decide what gets indexed at all. Two clients in the same industry stay genuinely separate.

Deliverables, not chat logs

Word and Excel output with tables and figures intact. The audit record exports through the same writer, so the record and the report look like the same document.

Nothing to install but the app

One application — no server, no cloud account, no background process. Its models run locally — no API key and no network call — so it keeps working on a plane, at a client site, and inside a facility that doesn’t allow outside tools.

Runs on your hardware

No document limits, no query quotas and no seat counting, because the indexing happens on your own disk with your own processor. The only ceiling is the machine in front of you.

What this is, and what it isn’t

Axon supports your own documentation and review practices. It is not a validated system and makes no compliance claim on its own. Everything it produces is meant to be checked — which is why every answer comes with the page it came from.

When your client wants to ask the questions themselves

Synapse is the hosted half — a branded widget on your client’s own site, an agent in their Slack, or a portal they log into, each scoped to their documents alone with roles and per-client isolation underneath. Useful when a deliverable should keep answering questions after you’ve handed it over.

Free for one person

No limits beyond your own hardware, and no sign-up. Pro ($49 a month) is for when the work involves someone else — share a project with a colleague, search your cloud drives, and export on your letterhead. A team on one agreement is a licence and a conversation.
