Persistence model

Surfaice assembles context at run time for a task. It does not keep a general-purpose copy of your document repositories. Skills are named workflows the agent (Hugo) can run; workspace configuration includes which skills and instructions your company enabled. New here? See What is Surfaice?.

What typically persists

  • Accounts and user identity
  • Encrypted connection tokens
  • Workspace configuration, skills, and instructions
  • Audit and agent-run logs
  • Content a user deliberately saves (for example an accepted lease abstract moved into workspace memory)

What Surfaice is not storing as a product default

  • Bulk copies of mailboxes
  • A mirror or sync of SharePoint or your DMS
  • A general-purpose lake of customer documents
  • Customer data used to train any model (ours or a vendor’s)

Hosting and isolation

  • Each customer gets a dedicated, isolated environment with its own database
  • Hosted on Google Cloud Platform in US regions
  • Encrypted at rest and in transit

Model providers

Inference may use commercial agreements with providers such as Microsoft Azure OpenAI, Google Gemini, and Anthropic, under zero-retention / no-training contractual terms for customer content as described on our security page.
