The Intelligence Behind
Canadian Privacy
We built the AI infrastructure that powers Shielk and Valdra — a proprietary Canadian NER engine, purpose-built compliance agents, and a legal knowledge base that covers all 34 Canadian privacy laws.
Purpose-Built for Canadian Privacy
Every component of Canuckt AI was built specifically for Canadian law — not adapted from US tools.
Canadian PII Detection
A proprietary NER engine trained exclusively on Canadian legal and regulatory documents. Detects 421+ Canadian PII types that no off-the-shelf model can find.
Bilingual Processing
Native English and French support. Quebec French-specific patterns — RAMQ, NAM, Quebec court numbers, Law 25 terminology. Not a translation layer.
Legal Knowledge Base
A continuously updated knowledge base covering PIPEDA, all 13 provincial privacy acts, CASL, FINTRAC, and 34+ Canadian regulations with section-level citations.
Compliance Agents
8 specialized AI agents that understand Canadian law: document drafting, breach triage, vendor risk, gap analysis, regulatory monitoring, and more.
Compliance Certification
Auto-generated PIPEDA compliance certificates with section-level citations. Maps every detection to the 10 Fair Information Principles.
Zero-Knowledge Architecture
All PII processed in RAM and purged in under 2 seconds. Zero data retention. Zero training on your data. Canadian-controlled infrastructure.
Performance That Speaks for Itself
Benchmarked against leading off-the-shelf NLP models on held-out Canadian PII test sets.
GPU-Trained on Canadian Regulatory Data
We didn't fine-tune a general model. We built a custom NER pipeline trained exclusively on Canadian legal and regulatory documents — IRCC forms, OPC decisions, PIPEDA rulings, Law 25 guidance.
Corpus Collection
31 real Canadian regulatory documents: IRCC forms, OPC enforcement cases, PIPEDA decisions, CAI rulings, Law 25 guidance. No synthetic data.
Human Annotation
1,491 entities manually labelled across 244 Canadian PII types — SIN, RAMQ, NAM, passport numbers, work permit IDs, provincial health card numbers.
GPU Training
Transformer-based NER fine-tuned on CUDA-accelerated compute. Custom inference pipeline handles bilingual entities, partial redactions, and contextual disambiguation.
Production Inference
Containerized GPU inference on Canadian servers. Sub-200ms median response. Results purged from RAM on request completion. Zero data retention.
NER model F1 measured on held-out Canadian PII test set. Off-the-shelf scores are Canuckt internal benchmarks on the same test set. End-to-end product detection accuracy (NER + rule-based recognizers): 95%+.
Powered by NVIDIAGPU infrastructure
Transformer architecture fine-tuned on a proprietary corpus of Canadian legal and regulatory documents. NER model covers 244 entity types; combined with rule-based recognizers the full detection system reaches 421+ Canadian PII types. Covers PIPEDA, Law 25, PHIPA, PIPA, FINTRAC, IRCC document types, and bilingual Quebec-specific patterns.
AI That Knows Canadian Law
Every agent is powered by Canuckt AI with a proprietary Canadian legal knowledge base. Every answer cites the actual regulation. Every document is legally accurate.
Valdra Copilot
Answers any Canadian compliance question in context of your profile. Cites PIPEDA Schedule 1, Law 25 sections, CASL articles.
Document Drafter
Generates Privacy Policies, PIAs, DPAs, CASL consent forms, OPC breach reports — bilingual, legally accurate, tailored to your org.
Breach Triage
Conversational RROSH assessment. Knows PIPEDA vs. Law 25 differences. Starts OPC and CAI countdown clocks automatically.
PII Scanner
Leverages Shielk's full detection engine. Auto-populates your Data Inventory from scan results. 100% local — zero data leaves Canada.
Vendor Risk
Reviews vendor SOC 2 reports, flags CLOUD Act exposure for US vendors, generates and sends DPAs automatically.
Questionnaire Responder
Answers inbound security questionnaires from enterprise customers. 70-80% auto-answer rate from your compliance profile.
Regulatory Watch
Monitors OPC, CAI, CRTC, and Parliament daily. Summarizes changes in plain language. Alerts you when your org is affected.
Gap Analyzer
Continuous gap analysis after every profile change. Prioritized output with fix time estimates and fine risk calculations.
All agents operate on Canadian servers. Legal knowledge base covers PIPEDA, Law 25, CASL, OPC guidelines, CAI rulings — continuously updated.
Powers Both Shielk and Valdra
The same Canuckt AI engine drives both products — but they solve completely different problems.
Shielk
AI Privacy Proxy — anonymize PII before any AI, de-anonymize after. PIPEDA compliance certificates. Zero data stored.
