DocsGPT is a private internal knowledge assistant for consultancies: a dedicated instance over your engagement archive, with SSO and cited answers, operated for you under an SLA. No Deviation, a specialist consultancy, runs one over 5,000+ documents on a flat monthly fee.
Last updated:
Five stages: past reports, assessments and methodologies are synced from SharePoint, Drive or Confluence; they are ingested with team permissions; a question is answered from the archive by the model; the answer cites the slide or page, or a draft deliverable is produced; a consultant reviews before anything reaches a client.
Dispersed knowledge
Institutional knowledge in a consultancy is dispersed across reports, assessments and methodologies, so the same analysis gets repeated by people who do not know it exists.
Onboarding
New joiners take months to find out how the firm does things, because the answer sits in someone's old engagement folder.
Confidentiality
Client confidentiality rules out tools that train on or store data outside the firm's control — and nobody in-house wants to run servers.
Workflow 01
Connectors sync SharePoint and OneDrive, Google Drive, Confluence and S3; 30+ formats are ingested, including the PPTX and XLSX that consultancies live in. Hybrid retrieval finds the passage and the answer cites the document and page or slide.

Workflow 02
One agent per practice, with its own system prompt and selected sources. Wiki sources are kept current by agents with provenance stamps, and share links make an assistant available across the firm without a rollout project.

Workflow 03
The artifact generator produces DOCX, PPTX and XLSX from approved prior work, versioned so the reviewer can see what changed. Guardrails redact client PII where a draft must not carry it.

Workflow 04
A dedicated managed instance: SSO with the firm's IdP (OIDC), SCIM, teams and workspaces for practice groups, per-team usage quotas, analytics by team, and support under an SLA. Your team connects sources, sets permissions and writes each practice's prompt; Arc53 operates the rest.

5,000+ documents · flat monthly fee
Dedicated managed instance for a specialist consultancy: 5,000+ documents, SSO, one flat monthly fee with no per-seat licence.
Source: No Deviation
Managed is the usual posture here: a private instance without operating it.
Consultancies take the Managed posture: Arc53 provisions a single-tenant instance in the region you choose, connects your SSO, and hosts, upgrades, backs up and supports it under an SLA. Firms with residency rules can run the same platform on-premises with their own IT and Arc53 support.
Scope, measure, then decide.
Provision the dedicated instance and connect SSO
Days, not weeks; the instance is single-tenant from the start.
Connect one archive and set team permissions
For example the SharePoint library of past engagements, shared to the practice groups that may see it.
Benchmark and tune
20–30 test questions from partners and the onboarding lead; iterate until the answers cite the right documents.
