Agree on what good looks like
Before the session we pick the workflow, decide who it's for, and write down what a passing answer looks like and what data can touch the machine.
Pick one
A real workflow
Document search, drafting, code, or an internal app.
Run it locally
Your data or stand-ins
Sanitized samples, synthetic records, or a set your team signs off on.
Then decide
Go or no-go
How good the output is, what running it takes, and how big a system you need.
The working session
Pick one workflow and hold it to a real standard
The question is narrow on purpose: can a private system do this one job well enough to be worth it? Narrow questions get answered in days instead of quarters.
Run it on local hardware
We set up a local model and feed it your approved examples. Whoever knows the work best sits there and judges the output as it comes out.
Make the call
We write down what worked, what didn't, what running this would take, and whether buying a system is justified yet.
What you get
A clear answer on whether to buy
One report, written so the person paying and the person who has to run it can both read it.
The workflow and the bar it has to clear
Who uses it, what goes in, what a good answer looks like, who checks it, and what it's worth if it works.
What it did well, and where it broke
The actual outputs, plus the failure modes we ran into. Every model runs out of road somewhere, and you should know where before you buy.
What a deployment would take
How much hardware, how much network and identity work, which software pieces, where the data boundary sits, and who owns it day to day.
A straight answer
If the workflow isn't ready, or local hardware is the wrong tool for it, the report says so. Sometimes the honest answer is no.
A fixed quote for the next step
If it makes sense to deploy, you get a quote with real parts, real dates, and who is responsible for what.
Who this is for
Some teams shouldn't do this yet
That's what the free call is for. We sort it out before you commit to anything.
Good fit A strong pilot
- You can name the one workflow you'd want this for.
- Cloud AI is off the table, or too much of a fight to approve.
- Someone who owns the work and someone who owns the network can both show up.
- You can bring real examples, or help us build convincing fake ones.
- You want a decision, and you'd rather hear no than be sold to.
Not yet Wait a little
- You want an AI strategy and haven't picked a first workflow.
- You're expecting hardware alone to make you compliant.
- You want to load sensitive data before anyone has agreed on access rules.
Bring one workflow to the call
One call is enough to tell whether it's ready, what data we'd need, and who should be in the room. If it isn't a fit, you'll know before you spend anything.
