Private AI translation · Monthly
Cypher
Use the most capable frontier models on your most confidential information. Cypher is a translation engine that sits between your data and the model. Before anything leaves your network, it replaces names, customers, numbers and other sensitive details with placeholders. The model works on the anonymized version, and Cypher puts the real details back into the answer.
You get frontier-model performance without handing over customer, financial or employee data. Your team can reach me to tune what gets masked and how.
Plus $4,500 one-time setup
- Rules for what counts as confidential in your business
- Names, customers, numbers and IDs masked before they leave
- Works with Claude and other frontier models
- Real details restored in every answer
- A record of what was masked and sent
- Monthly status report and access to me for your team’s questions
Local AI · Monthly
Keep
Your own AI, running on your own machine. We select an appropriate harness and open-weight models on hardware you own, build agents and agent clusters around your real workflows, and keep the whole thing running. Your data stays on your machine, and there are no per-token charges. You buy the hardware.
Your team can reach me to talk through changes to your Keep and how to leverage it further.
“Once the hardware is yours, every extra question is free. Cost will push more businesses to local AI than security will.”
Plus $5,500 one-time setup
- Help choosing the right machine
- Install and setup of the harness and open-weight models
- Your first agents and agent cluster, built around a real workflow
- Monitoring and updates for the harness and the models
- Agents tuned and added as your needs change
- Troubleshooting, a monthly status report, and access to me for your team’s questions
What to run it on
To run an effective on-site AI appliance you need at least 128 GB of memory. Here are typical prices for some devices that meet that, as of October 2026. Memory prices are rising, so these change often. You buy the hardware; I help you pick.
| Option | About | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| Strix Halo mini PC | $3,500 | Lowest cost way to run large models |
| Mac Studio (M5 Max) | $5,100 | Quiet, small, simple to run |
| NVIDIA DGX Spark | $6,950 | Built for AI work, compact |
| Windows server with a GPU card | $12,000 to $16,000 | Much faster and fits larger models; more power and noise |

Questions people ask
What are Guardrail, Foundry, Vault, Keep and Cypher?
Five monthly services from SMB AI. Guardrail looks after how Claude is deployed and controlled across your organization, Foundry looks after your GitHub instance, Vault looks after your wiki or knowledge base, Keep sets up and runs your own AI on hardware you own, and Cypher anonymizes your confidential information so frontier models can work on it safely.
How much do they cost?
Guardrail is $300 a month plus $2,500 setup, Foundry is $400 a month plus $3,500 setup, Vault is $500 a month plus $4,500 setup, Cypher is $600 a month plus $4,500 setup, and Keep is $700 a month plus $5,500 setup. Discounts are available when multiple products and services are bundled.
What do I get each month?
I monitor the system, send you a monthly report on its status, and I am available to your team for questions on that topic: governance issues, GitHub troubleshooting, or changes and additions to the wiki.
Can I combine them?
Yes. Buy one or several on their own, or have them built as part of Ascent and Summit. Discounts are available when multiple products and services are bundled.
Do I need to be technical?
No. Foundry and Guardrail exist to give people who don’t write code a safe place to build with AI, and I handle the monitoring.
What is Keep?
Your own AI on hardware you own. I select and set up an appropriate harness and open-weight models, build agents and agent clusters around your workflows, and maintain it each month. You buy the machine; I help you choose it. Your data stays on your hardware and there are no per-token charges.
What is Cypher?
A translation engine for confidential information. It replaces sensitive details with placeholders before your request goes to a frontier model like Claude, then restores them in the answer. You get the performance of the best models without exposing customer, financial or employee data.
What does Vault cover?
Monitoring of your wiki or knowledge base: finding stale records, checking that semantic and keyword search layers work properly, improving front matter, and making information easy to find.
