Private & On-Premise AI

Bring the model to your data. Keep sensitive processing inside.

We assess the workload, model, infrastructure and integrations, then deploy the approved design on your servers or private cloud. External AI calls can be disabled when the selected components support fully private operation.

Deployment fit

More control. More to operate.

Private or on-premise AI can reduce external data transfers and provider dependence. It also adds capacity planning, monitoring, updates and model operations. We compare public cloud, private cloud and on-premise before recommending it.

Worked example — document analysis inside your network
  1. jobanalysis of internal documents — started
  2. modellocal model running on your hardware
  3. networkoutbound calls: 0
  4. blockedapi.openai.com — denied by policy
  5. doneresults saved inside your environment

Configured example. Actual network behaviour depends on the approved architecture and integrations.

What we deliver

A private AI system in your environment

  1. 01

    Runs in your environment

    Deployed in your data centre or private cloud — your infrastructure, your rules.

  2. 02

    Fewer external data transfers

    Keep selected AI processing in your chosen environment and reduce reliance on external providers. Your wider GDPR and governance obligations still apply.

  3. 03

    Predictable costs

    For steady, suitable workloads, your own infrastructure can make capacity and operating costs easier to plan than usage-based cloud pricing.

  4. 04

    Agents and automation, deployed privately

    Run selected automations and agents on-premise, sized for the model, workload and performance target.

How it works

Bring the AI to your data

We test models that can run in your environment, select the right fit and connect the chosen model to your systems.

  • Models tested against your task, data and performance target.
  • Deployed on your servers or private cloud — inside your environment.
  • Connected to your internal systems. External AI calls can be disabled when the selected models, integrations and operating tools support fully private operation.

AI model

Data and model stay inside the defined environment. External AI calls can be disabled.

What you buy

One use case. One measure of success. A decision at every stage.

We assess feasibility and risk, build a focused pilot, then prepare only an accepted solution for production. Every stage has agreed deliverables and acceptance criteria.

01
Assess

Confirm scope and constraints

We map the process, data flows, integrations, security requirements, operating model and result to measure.

You receive

A process map, data-flow and risk review, solution options and a fixed proposal for the next stage.

02
Validate

Test one focused pilot

We build one use case in an agreed environment and evaluate quality, controls, performance and operating effort against the acceptance criteria.

You receive

A working pilot, test results, known limitations and a clear recommendation on whether to proceed.

03
Deploy

Prepare the accepted solution for production

We prepare the accepted solution and agree release, monitoring, rollback, support and operating responsibilities.

You receive

A production release and the agreed handover assets: source code and settings, deployment automation, monitoring and operating instructions.

FAQ

Worth knowing

Does private AI perform as well as cloud AI?

It depends on the task. We compare answer quality, the amount of information the model can handle, response time, hardware and operating effort. Then we test the best candidate against your acceptance criteria.

What hardware do we need?

It depends on the workload — we size it during discovery, from a single server up.

Does it help with GDPR?

It can support data-residency and supplier-governance requirements by reducing external transfers and sub-processors. Deployment location alone does not make processing GDPR-compliant; your lawful basis, access controls, retention and governance obligations remain.

Can we start in the cloud and move on-premise later?

Yes, where the chosen models and components permit it. We design for portability and document any third-party dependencies before the build.

How long does deployment take?

A focused prototype can often be ready within weeks. Production timing depends on scope; after discovery, the fixed proposal sets concrete dates.

When is on-premise the wrong choice?

When rapid access to the largest hosted models, low initial infrastructure effort or highly variable usage matters more than isolation. We recommend it only after comparing security, quality, response time, capacity, operating effort and total cost.
