Our approach to developing and exploiting the potential of AI is rooted in our founding mission: to prevent conflicts in construction projects before they cost a lot.
We believe that our approach to AI should be both bold and responsible. In construction, where trust, precision, and accountability matter, our AI development prioritizes transparency, safety, and human control while providing powerful capabilities that improve project outcomes.
A note for teams using AI for the first time
AI can be powerful and unfamiliar, especially in construction, where a missed notice period or a poorly understood requirement can have significant impacts.
Our approach is intentionally bold in what we build and disciplined in how we protect your business, data, and decision making.
Practical innovation that improves project results
We're building AI features that reduce the real pain on projects, not the novelty.
Our focus:
• Automated document discovery to identify contractual risks and key obligations
• Smart search that includes relationships between construction documents
• Risk analysis that highlights issues before they become disputes
• Monitoring of deadlines to never miss a critical contractual deadline
What does it look like in Telamont
• Automated document discovery: the AI analyzes your contracts and identifies clauses, risks and obligations in a few minutes
• Natural language research: ask questions about your documents as you would ask a colleague
• Proactive risk analysis: alerts on potential issues before they become problems
Privacy, Security, and Data Control by Design
Construction documents are sensitive. Your contracts, pricing, correspondence, and claims strategy are not training data.
Your data is not training data
We don't use your project data to train shared/public models by default
Retention limited to use
Data is retained only as needed to operate the product and meet your configured requirements.
Secure access
Least privilege permissions and strong authentication options (including SSO when available)
Protected in transit and at rest
Encryption across storage and network paths
What does it look like in Telamont
• Centralized cloud infrastructure managed by us
• Administrative controls for users, permissions, and access models
• Access and operational practices favourable to audits
AI under human control, transparent and responsible
AI should never silently change obligations, invent facts, or push teams into risky actions.
Based on your documents
Responses refer to source material
Precedence of project-specific documents
When contracts are in conflict, we learn the priority rules of your agreements, no static assumptions
No invented facts
We prefer “not found” over guessing
Clear review points
Reviews, complaint language, and high-stakes outcomes require human review
Explainability rather than magic
We show why something is being reported: what clause, what specification section, what record
What does it look like in Telamont
• Citations and traceability to underlying documents• Safeguards designed for workflows and construction risks
• Feedback loops so your team can correct and improve results
Our AI principles in action
Our principles guide how we build and operate Telamont:
Life cycle governance
Design → test → controlled deployment → monitoring → iteration
Due diligence on suppliers and components
Security, Privacy, and Reliability Requirements and Controls
Adversary tests
We test dangerous results (fabricated quotes, bad versions, confidential leaks)
Origin and traceability
Document versioning and source attribution to facilitate rapid verification
Operational responsibility
Defined processes for security, reliability, and incident response
Frequently asked questions
Is my data being used to train AI models?
No. Your documents and data are never used to train AI models. They remain exclusively in your secure environment and are only used to respond to your requests.
How does the AI generate its responses?
The AI only analyzes the documents that you have uploaded to your project. Each answer is based on specific passages from your contracts, with precise references to source clauses and documents.
Can AI make decisions automatically?
No AI assists and recommends, but all important decisions — sending contractual opinions, evaluating claims, legal actions — require explicit human validation. You are always in control.
Where is my data hosted?
Your data is hosted on secure servers in Canada. We use end-to-end encryption and strict access controls to ensure the confidentiality of your information.
