Trust Center / what a procurement team needs

The architecture is the argument. Here is the paperwork behind it.

gothink software runs inside your boundary and no document ever leaves it. This page carries the SOC 2 status with a named auditor and a date, the subprocessor list, the DPA, a pre-completed security questionnaire, the data-flow diagram and the pen-test summary. Ask for any of it and it arrives as a document, not as a meeting.

01 / the data boundary

What crosses in, what never crosses out.

Crosses inward

Code, models, connectors, packs

Signed release bundles installed in your VPC, on-prem or air-gapped environment under your IAM and keys.

Crosses outward

Nothing

No page, no field, no metadata, no usage telemetry. The runtime has no network dependency on gothink to operate or to validate its licence.

Model providers

None see a page

Extraction runs on models deployed in your boundary. Where you choose to use an external model, it is your account, your contract and your decision, and it is off by default.

Licence validation

A signed file, checked locally

Licence state is a signed file with an expiry, installed alongside the runtime. Renewal is a new file, delivered like any offline release bundle.

Training

Your corrections stay yours

Steward corrections retrain extractors inside your deployment. Nothing you process is used to train gothink's models or any other customer's.

PII and PHI

Masked at the govern stage

Masking and entitlements are applied before anything is indexed or served, so downstream RAG and agents inherit your access rules.

02 / SOC 2 & documents

SOC 2, with a named auditor and a date on it.

A roadmap alone reads as “not yet certified”, so here is the specific commitment instead: the engagement, who is running it, when the window opens and when the report lands. This table is updated the day a status changes, not the quarter after.

Why two reports, and what to do while they are pending

Type II cannot be shortened — it requires a real observation window, and any vendor claiming otherwise is describing a Type I. So both run at once: the window opened the week the auditor was engaged, and the Type I report exists to give your risk team something to read in the meantime rather than to substitute for the real one.

Ask for the compensating controls document. It sets out what is in place today, control by control, against the SOC 2 trust services criteria, and it is written to be read by your security team rather than by your procurement team. The stronger argument in the meantime is architectural: at Enterprise and Sovereign the runtime executes inside your boundary, under your IAM, on your keys — the certification covers our corporate environment, and your documents were never in it.

Escrow terms

Source escrow with a named agent on Enterprise and Sovereign, released on defined trigger events. Because a small vendor should expect to be asked.

Ownership and escrow
Reports and bridge letters are shared under NDA once issued. Everything else on this page is available now, on request, without a sales conversation attached to it. Send security questionnaires to sundar@gothink.ai and they will come back completed rather than scheduled.
03 / the weights, technically

What “you own the model” means when an engineer asks.

Ownership claims in this market are usually made about weights that live on the vendor’s infrastructure, under a base-model licence nobody checked for transferability. Your architects will ask three questions. These are the answers, before they ask.

Question one

What is the base model, and can it be transferred?

The base model is named in your order-form schedule rather than described as “a leading open model”. gothink warrants that its licence permits the derivative weights to be transferred to you and run without gothink. Any base model whose licence cannot support that is not eligible for the runtime — the constraint sits in our model selection, not in your contract’s small print.

Question two

What format do we actually receive?

Standard open weight files with the tokenizer and configuration, plus adapter weights where tuning is adapter-based, plus the records and lineage as documented schemas. No proprietary container, no format that requires Forge to read. If your team can load a model from a public repository, they can load this.

Question three

Will it run anywhere else?

Open weights are served today by several independent inference providers as well as on your own hardware, so portability is demonstrable rather than promised. On request we will run your exported weights outside gothink’s software, in front of your engineers, before you sign. An ownership claim that has never been tested is a marketing claim.

What gothink keeps. The platform, the pipeline source, the base schemas and the pack intellectual property remain ours. You own what was built from your estate — the tuned weights, the records, the lineage and your eval set. We own the machine that built it. The full schedule, including escrow triggers and when you can take an export, is on the ownership page and is readable before you enter a sales process.
04 / how the product improves

Forge gets better across every estate. Your documents are not how.

“Nothing you run trains our models” raises a fair question: then how does the product improve? The answer is that we learn from the pipeline’s own behaviour, not from what passed through it — and the distinction is auditable rather than rhetorical.

Pipeline behaviour signalsOnly with consentWhich field types abstain most often, which layout structures defeat a classifier, which confidence thresholds later produced corrections, which schema shapes needed amendment after a regulatory change. Counts and categories, never content
The mechanism

Failure modes travel; data does not

If a clause layout defeats the classifier at one firm, the shape of that failure informs the next pack release — a new validation rule, a revised gate default, an added field definition. Every customer gets the improvement. No customer gets another customer’s documents, values or model.

Your control

Opt-in, per deployment, reversible

Behaviour signals are off unless you switch them on, the setting is per deployment, and turning it off later changes nothing about your accuracy floor or your support. The schedule listing exactly which signals are collected is an annex to the DPA, not a paragraph in a privacy policy.

Verification

Inspect the egress yourself

The signal payload is written to a local log before transmission, in the clear, so your security team can read exactly what would leave and block it at the network layer if they disagree. We would rather you verified this than believed it.

Why we are explicit about this. Most AI products improve by learning from customer data, which is why most of them are vague about what they retain. Ours does not, which costs us the usual compounding advantage and buys you the ability to answer an examiner in one sentence. The trade is deliberate, and every pack improvement that reaches you is listed on the public changelog with what prompted it.
05 / subprocessors

None touch your documents.

Because the runtime is in your boundary, the subprocessor list for customer data is empty. The list below covers gothink's own corporate operations only.

06 / practices

How releases, disclosure and support work.

Releases

Signed, versioned, offline-capable

Every release is a signed bundle with a changelog and an SBOM. Air-gapped deployments receive the same bundle by the channel agreed at onboarding.

Release notes
Supported versions

Current and previous major

Security patches for the current and previous major version. End-of-support dates are published twelve months ahead.

Support policy
Vulnerability disclosure

Contact

Report a vulnerability and we acknowledge within two business days, triage within five, and notify affected licensees with a patch or mitigation.

Access to your environment

Only what you grant, only during onboarding or Operate

gothink engineers use accounts you provision and revoke, with your logging. There is no standing access after onboarding unless an operations tier requires it.

Penetration testing

Each major release

Independent testing of the runtime and control plane; summary shared with licensees under NDA.

Legal entity

Who you are contracting with

The contracting entity, its jurisdiction of incorporation and its registration number are stated on the order form and in the DPA pack, both available on request before any commercial conversation.

The ask / send the questionnaire before the meeting

Bring your security questionnaire.

It comes back completed, alongside the architecture reference and the compensating controls document. The runtime never asks you to trust a promise the topology does not already enforce.
