Question 1

Where does my data actually go?

Accepted Answer

Your messages go via Telegram's infrastructure to your machine and then to the AI provider (Anthropic in v1.0). Nothing else. VantagePoint never sees anything. When local Ollama lands in v1.1, even the AI provider sees nothing — everything stays on your machine.

Question 2

Is this a ChatGPT alternative for UK SMBs?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It is built specifically for UK SMBs that cannot send client data through a shared ChatGPT account. Your AI provider keys are your own, your conversations live on your machine, and 21 UK SMB sector profiles are tuned in (law firms, accountancy practices, healthcare clinics, financial advisers, etc.). It is a one-off purchase from £1,997, not a per-seat SaaS subscription.

Question 3

How does it compare to Microsoft Copilot?

Accepted Answer

Copilot is per-seat per-month forever, locked to the Microsoft 365 graph, and routes through Microsoft. AI In Your Pocket is a one-off purchase, runs on an existing Windows machine, uses the AI provider keys you choose, and never sends data through VantagePoint. For a 30-person firm the year-one cost is typically a fraction of Copilot.

Question 4

Can I use this for regulated client work (SRA, ICAEW, FCA, CQC)?

Accepted Answer

Yes for decision support, drafting, and summarisation — treat AI output as a junior assistant's draft, always review. Not appropriate for unsupervised client communication or storing UK GDPR Article 9 special-category data without a DPIA. Enterprise tier includes a Data Processing Schedule available on request for regulated sectors (5 working day lead time).

Question 5

Does the AI actually remember previous conversations?

Accepted Answer

Yes — persistent per-user memory is a v1 feature, not a future plan. Memory survives container restarts and is private per team member (no one else on the team can see your conversations). You can wipe your own memory at any time with /forget.

Question 6

What does my IT team need to do?

Accepted Answer

For Self-Install (£1,997): a non-developer IT person follows the setup guide. ~20 minutes including downloading the AI engine. For Managed Install (£3,497) and Enterprise (£7,997): VantagePoint runs the install on a 2-hour remote session — your IT only provides API keys and Telegram IDs.

Question 7

What is the refund policy?

Accepted Answer

All sales final. Digital-content waiver under UK Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 Reg 36 — required at checkout. If something genuinely doesn't fit, email support and we may credit against a different VantagePoint product at our discretion.
