Most knowledge base tools force you to choose between modern AI features and keeping sensitive data behind your firewall. That tradeoff is over.
Why Docsie
Keep your data in-house without sacrificing the modern features your teams expect.
HIPAA, FedRAMP, GDPR, or internal data residency requirements—when everything runs on your infrastructure, you maintain complete control. No data transfer agreements to negotiate, no third-party processors to audit, no surprises during compliance reviews.
Forget multi-month implementation timelines. Our automated provisioning gets you from purchase order to production in under half an hour. Your team is documenting, not debugging deployments.
Your team expects smart search, automated suggestions, and intelligent content recommendations. With Docsie on-prem, they get all of it—powered by AI models running entirely within your infrastructure, using only your data.
IT directors across regulated industries trust Docsie for their most sensitive documentation needs.
A regional hospital network needed to document clinical procedures and maintain training materials containing patient information. Cloud solutions were off the table due to HIPAA requirements, but legacy on-prem tools couldn't deliver the search experience clinicians needed in high-pressure situations.
A government agency managing classified and controlled unclassified information needed modern documentation capabilities without cloud exposure. Their existing solution required filing change requests weeks in advance and offered no search beyond basic keyword matching.
A regional bank needed to centralize compliance procedures, loan documentation standards, and operational policies. Regulators required proof that customer financial data never touched third-party systems, which ruled out cloud knowledge bases entirely.
Everything you need for enterprise knowledge management, deployed entirely on your terms.
Deploy on your own servers, in your data center, behind your firewall—you choose the environment.
25-minute setup process handles installation, configuration, and initialization automatically.
Smart search, content suggestions, and AI assistance running entirely within your network.
Integrates with your existing directory services, SSO, and permission systems.
Complete history of every change, who made it, and when—essential for compliance documentation.
Continues working even if internet connectivity is lost—ideal for air-gapped environments.
Common Questions
Answers to questions we hear from IT directors evaluating on-premise solutions.
Q: How long does deployment actually take?
A: Automated provisioning completes in approximately 25 minutes on standard enterprise infrastructure. This includes installation, initial configuration, and readiness checks. You'll need to allocate time for your own security reviews and integration with existing systems like SSO.
Q: What infrastructure requirements do we need to meet?
A: Docsie runs on standard virtualized infrastructure or physical servers. We provide specific sizing guidance based on your expected user count and document volume during the sales process. Most customers deploy on existing infrastructure without new hardware purchases.
Q: Can we test it before committing to a full deployment?
A: Yes. We offer proof-of-concept deployments in your environment so your team can validate performance, security controls, and integration points before purchase. This typically runs for 30 days with full feature access.
Q: Does any data ever leave our network?
A: No. With on-premise deployment, all data processing, storage, and AI operations occur entirely within your infrastructure. There are no callbacks to Docsie servers, no telemetry data transmission, and no external dependencies for core functionality.
Q: How do updates and patches work without internet connectivity?
A: Updates are delivered as self-contained packages that your team can review, test in staging environments, and deploy on your schedule. For air-gapped environments, we provide offline update procedures that don't require any external connectivity.
