Annual billing gives a 20% discount on all paid plans.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. All paid plans include a 7-day free trial with no credit card required. You get full access to the plan's features during the trial period.
What happens if I hit my query limit?
Your account is paused — you won't be charged overage fees automatically. You can either wait for the next billing cycle or upgrade your plan. Usage-based add-ons are available as an opt-in for users who want to pay per extra query (from €0.05/query).
Can I change plans?
Yes. Upgrades take effect immediately and are prorated. Downgrades apply at the next billing cycle.
Data Security & Privacy
Where is my data stored?
All data is stored on bare-metal servers in Germany and Finland (Hetzner data centers). No data leaves the EU/EEA. We do not use AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or any non-European cloud provider for data storage.
Do you use OpenAI, Google, or other third-party AI APIs?
No. We run our own AI models on our own GPU hardware. Your documents and queries are never sent to OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, or any third-party AI provider. The entire inference pipeline runs on European infrastructure we own and operate.
Is CaveauAI GDPR compliant?
Yes. CaveauAI is designed with GDPR compliance from the ground up:
- Data minimization — We only process what's needed for the RAG pipeline
- Tenant isolation — Your data is completely separated from other clients
- Right to deletion — Delete any document and its vectors are removed from all systems
- Data Processing Agreement (DPA) — Available for all paid plans
- No data sharing — Your private documents are never used for model training or shared with other tenants
What about tenant isolation?
Every client's data is strictly isolated:
- Private corpus: Stored in a dedicated partition filtered by your client ID
- Vector store: Qdrant points are tagged with your client ID and filtered at query time
- File storage: Documents stored in client-specific directories
- Corporate+ plans: Optional dedicated database instance
Can I export my data?
Yes. You can download your documents via the API (GET /api/v2/documents.php) or request a full data export through support.
AI Models & Infrastructure
What AI models does CaveauAI use?
| Model | Parameters | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| bnl-legal | 7 billion | Fine-tuned for Norwegian and European law. Fast, specialized responses. |
| Qwen 2.5 72B | 72 billion | Enterprise-grade reasoning. Handles complex multi-domain queries. |
| nomic-embed-text | — | Embedding model for document vectors (768-dimensional). |
Model availability depends on your plan. Professional and above get GPU-accelerated inference.
What is the knowledge distillation pipeline?
We use a multi-step process to create domain-specific AI models:
- Teacher models (NorwAI-24B and Qwen-72B) generate high-quality Q&A pairs from legal documents
- These Q&A pairs are curated and quality-scored
- A smaller model (Qwen 7B) is fine-tuned using QLoRA on this curated data
- The result is a fast, specialized model (bnl-legal) that punches above its weight on domain-specific questions
What is RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)?
RAG is the technique that prevents AI hallucination. Instead of relying solely on the model's training data, CaveauAI:
- Searches your document corpus for relevant passages
- Retrieves the most relevant text chunks
- Augments the AI model's prompt with these real documents
- Generates an answer that cites specific sources
This means every answer can be verified against the original documents.
Account & Access
