ErmosIQ™. The intelligence layer inside every Ermos unit.
It learns your business, and never leaves the building. Every question your team asks, every correction they make, every document they work with: your Ermos unit learns from it all, on hardware behind your own walls.
An AI that gets better at your work, not everyone’s.
Cloud AI models are trained on the internet. They know a little about everything and nothing about your business. ErmosIQ is the learning engine inside every Ermos unit. From the day it’s installed, it begins adapting to the way your business actually works:
Matter names, client entities, internal shorthand, practice-area terminology.
The templates, precedents, and file structures your team uses every day.
How your people phrase things, what a “good answer” looks like in your business, which sources they trust.
When a user refines or overrides an output, ErmosIQ weights that feedback into future responses.
Six months in, your Ermos unit behaves like a well-briefed member of your team.
The longer it runs, the wider the gap.
Your Ermos unit is installed with your document base indexed. Useful from day one: search, drafting, summarisation across your own files.
Terminology and entities locked in. The system recognises your matters, clients, and internal language. Fewer clarifying questions, faster answers.
Preference weighting is visible. Drafts come back closer to house style. Users edit less and accept more.
Adaptation layers reflect your practice areas. The unit handles your team’s recurring work patterns with a fluency no off-the-shelf model can match, because no off-the-shelf model has seen your work.
Every month an Ermos unit runs, the asset gets more valuable, and everything it builds up belongs to your business.
Four layers of on-device adaptation.
Knowledge indexing
Retrieval gets sharper the longer the box runs.
ErmosIQ builds and continuously refines a private index of your documents and data. New files are incorporated automatically; stale material is down-weighted.
Terminology & entities
It stops guessing and starts recognising.
The system learns the names, acronyms, and phrasing unique to your business and your clients.
Preference weighting
Every interaction is a signal.
Accepted answers are reinforced. Edited or rejected answers are down-weighted. Over time, output style converges on your own standards without anyone writing a style guide.
Model adaptation
Tuned to your domain, on the unit itself.
Periodically, ErmosIQ consolidates what it has learned into lightweight adaptation layers applied to the underlying model, typically overnight, with no external connection required.
The learning never leaves. Neither does the data.
This is the part cloud providers can’t offer. When a cloud AI “learns from your usage”, your usage is on their servers. Your prompts, your documents and your corrections feed a model shared with the world. With ErmosIQ:
Your competitors using cloud AI are training their provider’s model.
Your business is training its own.
Learning without the compliance headache.
For legal, accounting, medical and financial professionals, “the AI learns from your data” is usually a red flag. ErmosIQ is designed so it’s a feature you can put in front of your compliance officer:
Client data is never disclosed to an AI vendor, because there is no vendor in the loop at runtime.
The learning system’s entire footprint is one physical unit. Your security team can point to it.
Privileged and confidential material informs your private model only. It cannot surface in anyone else’s.
We maintain the unit and the learning system under your service agreement. The knowledge it accumulates serves your business alone.
Straight answers about the learning.
Does ErmosIQ send anything back to Ermos?
Can it learn something it shouldn't repeat?
What happens to the learning at end of term?
Does learning slow the system down?
Is this the same as the AI "training on our data" that we've told staff to avoid?
Every business gets the same cloud model. Yours gets its own.
ErmosIQ is included with every Ermos unit: no add-on fee, no tiers. It starts learning the day the unit is installed.
