Islamic digital banks do not need another AI chatbot. They need a system that turns legal and Shariah requirements into day-to-day operating controls, lets teams use AI responsibly, and gives management, Shariah boards, auditors, and regulators something they can verify. Our technology starts before the cloud. Data does not leave the institution’s control unless the relevant disclosure policy has been applied first, so that institutions can actually use the cloud.
Sami Mian
Chief Executive Officer, Blade Labs
Islamic banks want to use AI.The rules say no, unless you are compliant, and can prove it.
Data sovereignty laws, privacy regulations, and Shariah governance all demand the same thing: evidence the policy was applied. Most AI deployments enforce this inside the cloud, after the data has already left.
Sensitive data leaves before policy is applied
Generic AI sends raw text to the model first, then tries to manage it after. By then the data has already crossed the institutional boundary.
Generic models hallucinate citations
A confident but wrong AAOIFI reference is worse than no answer. Compliance teams cannot ship structures based on fabricated standards.
Scholar capacity does not scale
The top 20 Shariah scholars hold 621 board seats. Reviews queue up, products slip, and rework after late-stage rejection costs more than early screening.
Audit evidence assembled at the last minute
When a regulator examines you, the question is always the same: prove your policy was applied. Reconstructing that record after the fact is what most platforms force you to do.
Inside ZeroH Disclosure
Your data stays under your policy.The model only sees what you allow.
ZeroH Disclosure applies your institution’s policy at the prompt boundary. By the time anything reaches an external AI service, sensitive fields have already been redacted and the disclosure has been audit-trailed inside your sovereign region.

Built for how Shariah governance actually works.
Every answer cites the standard. Every analysis covers the four schools. Every decision maps to the higher objectives. Every disclosure produces a record.
Source attribution
Every answer cites its source.
Ali names the AAOIFI standard, clause, and version, plus IFSB and BNM equivalents where relevant. If the source is not in the corpus, Ali says so. No fabricated references.
Multi-madhahib analysis
Four schools of thought, side by side.
Hanafi, Shafiʻi, Maliki, and Hanbali positions presented together with the scholarly source for each. Your Shariah board selects the applicable view. Ali documents the reasoning.
Maqasid al-Shariah
Compliance mapped to purpose.
Every analysis maps findings to the five higher objectives: Faith, Life, Intellect, Lineage, and Wealth. Connects technical compliance to the question regulators are asking.
Ali in action
Murabaha contract review.
A real example. One contract, three tiers of findings, board-ready output. Ali handles the research; your Shariah board makes the call.
