World's First Offline Edge AI Assistant forConfidential Meetings Debuts on HP Z2 Mini G1a
Paris, France – June 10, 2025 – Swiss Edge AI startup csky.ai today announced a strategic collaboration with HP Inc. to deliver breakthrough privacy-first AI solutions for enterprise boardrooms. The collaboration, unveiled at Vivatech 2025, showcases how cutting-edge hardware meets revolutionary AI software to solve one of corporate governance's most pressing challenges: automating sensitive meeting documentation without compromising confidentiality.
Transforming Board and Executive Meeting Automation
Board meetings and executive discussions generate critical business intelligence yet remain manual processes requiring dedicated personnel for documentation. As the world's first fullstack edge AI assistant designed for confidential meetings that operates completely offline, ClearMind v2 automates note-taking and minute generation through a comprehensive on-device AI pipeline—ensuring the most sensitive business conversations never leave the meeting room.
Restoring Enterprise Data Sovereignty: csky.ai's mission centers on giving enterprises complete ownership of their data through fully sovereign solutions with no third parties involved in hosting or processing. With ClearMind, all data is processed onsite and never shared with external parties, offering absolute privacy by design and eliminating the fundamental security risks inherent in cloud-based AI solutions.
The solution uniquely handles large in-presence and hybrid meeting environments, making csky.ai one of the only providers that properly covers complex boardroom scenarios with multiple participants both physically present and joining remotely. The system performs real-time transcription, speaker separation, speaker identification, and generates enterprise-grade meeting minutes meeting corporate governance standards—all without internet connectivity.
Proven Success Drives Strategic Collaboration
csky.ai has successfully deployed ClearMind for board meetings and executive discussions with enterprise clients across France and Switzerland, building particular traction with financial institutions where C-suite confidentiality is non-negotiable. The EPFL spin-off recently secured over CHF 2 million in seed funding from private investors across Switzerland and France, plus strategic support from the Swiss Confederation via Innosuisse.
"The enterprise market demands AI solutions that don't compromise on privacy," said Hugo Flayac, CEO and Co-Founder of csky.ai. "Our Collaboration with HP represents a fundamental shift toward Edge AI that keeps sensitive business conversations completely secure while delivering automation benefits enterprises need."
Next-Generation AI Hardware Meets MarketLeadership
The Collaboration leverages HP's revolutionary Z2 Mini G1a workstations, featuring AMD Ryzen AI MAX PRO processors with up to 125 TOPS of AI performance and 128GB of unified memory. This quantum leap from previous generations enables ClearMind's sophisticated AI pipeline—advanced speech recognition, proprietary speaker separation, intelligent participant identification, and enterprise-grade minute generation—to run locally with military-grade security.
"The Z2 Mini G1a enables our complete AI pipeline to run locally with enterprise-grade security," noted StefanoZamuner, Co-Founder and CTO. "Board members can focus entirely on strategic discussions knowing comprehensive documentation is generated automatically without any confidentiality risk."
Edge AI: The Future of Enterprise Computing
Industry analysis reveals local AI processingis becoming essential as data centers now consume 4.4% of all US energy. Edge AI delivers compelling enterprise advantages: unlimited usage without cloud metering costs, up to 75% reduction in carbon emissions, regulatory compliance including EU AI Act requirements, and real-time performance without cloud latency.
Local processing addresses growing demands fordata sovereignty while enabling organizations to embrace AI automation without security compromises—critical for handling mergers, acquisitions, financial planning, and competitive intelligence discussions.
Swiss Innovation Leadership
At Vivatech 2025 (June 11-14), csky.ai joins 31selected Swiss startups in the swisstech Pavilion, demonstrating Switzerland'sleadership in breakthrough technology to over 160,000 visitors. The HP Collaboration validation underscores the commercial viability of privacy-first AI solutions as csky.ai prepares for Series A funding in Q1 2026.
"We're not just solving today's privacy challenges—we're positioning enterprises for the future of AI computing,"concluded Hugo Flayac. "This Collaboration demonstrates that the most powerful AI solutions can also be the most secure, opening possibilities for AI adoption across industries waiting for technology they can trust."
