How can we help you?
Professional firms handle information that was never meant to leave the building. Cotier installs the compute and private AI systems that let your people work with that information—without sending it to a public cloud service.
YOUR OFFICE. YOUR NETWORK. YOUR RULES.Answer the phone
Calls picked up, enquiries captured and routed to the right person, even when the office is busy.
Quotes and invoices
First drafts prepared from your price lists, job notes and past work, ready for a person to check.
Creating reports
Notes, figures and records turned into clear summaries for clients, partners or the team.
Drafting correspondence
Replies to routine emails and letters, written in your firm's tone and held for approval.
Finding answers in your files
Ask a question in plain English and get pointed to the policy, contract or record that answers it.
Summarising meetings and calls
Key points, decisions and follow-ups captured so nothing is left in someone's head.
02 / THE GAP IS ALREADY HERE
Your team is probably already using AI.
The question is where your information goes next.
UK BUSINESS ADOPTION
54%of the 668 UK businesses surveyed by the BCC were using AI; 94% of the sample were SMEs.
BCC / Essex ·UNAPPROVED AI AT WORK
71%of 2,003 surveyed UK employees aged 18+ said they had used unapproved consumer AI tools at work.
Microsoft / Censuswide ·DATA ENTERING CHATBOTS
77%of employees in LayerX’s enterprise browser analysis pasted data into generative-AI prompts—not necessarily confidential data.
LayerX ·WHY THIS MATTERS NOW
When staff reach for consumer AI tools without a sanctioned alternative, client details, pricing and internal documents can be pasted into services the firm does not control. These studies cover different populations: business adoption is not evidence of a data leak, and pasting data does not necessarily mean sharing confidential information. The practical question is whether your firm has clear rules and an approved way to use AI with sensitive information.
03 / BUILT AROUND THE BOUNDARYKeep the intelligence.

04 / FOR BUSINESSES GOING PLACESSmall teams.
Small teams.
Serious aspirations.
