Capacity without the hire

Grow without your next hire.

A private AI that gives your current team hours back every week, for less than a third of the fully loaded cost of the person you were about to recruit. Built for entrepreneurs, founders, and executives who would rather grow than hire.

Calculator results are scenarios. Your assessment sets the baseline and quotes the scope and timing.

Your work

Start with the work your team already does.

Drafting

Prepare proposals, emails, and procedures in your company’s voice. Your people review the draft before it is used.

Summaries and research

Turn long documents into summaries and research notes your team can check against the source material.

Answers from your own files

Work from approved policies, past work, pricing, and procedures. Your company’s documents provide the context.

For professional firms

For CPA, law, insurance, and wealth management firms of 10 to 75 professionals on the In-Building track: a written 90-day time-recovery target, set from your baseline. If the target is not met and participation requirements were satisfied, we keep working at no additional charge.

Private AI for professional firms

What you redeploy the hours to

  • More clients without more payroll.
  • Faster turnaround.
  • Fewer hires, or the ones you can't find.
  • Your own time back.

For an owner-led company, the point is more capacity for your current team.

Why private AI

Private AI, not public AI. Six reasons.

Your data stays yours

Nothing your team types, uploads, or asks ever reaches a public AI provider. It lives on your machine, in the United States.

Trained on your business

USA-sourced open-weight models, trained on your documents, your process, and your voice, so the answers are yours, not generic.

Nobody else's model, nobody else's prompts

Your AI runs for your company alone. No shared model, no one else's data in it, no one else's questions on it.

No per-seat meter

One private AI for the whole team. Add people, not subscriptions.

Terms that cannot change on you

No policy update from a provider can change where your data lives or what it can be used for.

Built and managed for you

We set it up, train it on your business, host it, secure it, and keep it current. You use it.

How we handle wrong answers

What happens when your AI is wrong.

It will be, sometimes. Here is how it is built so that being wrong is cheap to catch and never reaches a client.

Every answer shows its source

The passage comes from your document. Your retrieval system pulls it from the actual file. Your model does not write the source passage.

It says 'I don't know'

When your documents do not contain the answer, your AI says so instead of guessing.

A person approves anything that leaves

Nothing goes to a client without approval from your named reviewer.

You get your own number

The first ninety days record how often drafts are accepted without correction, workflow by workflow. You decide where to rely on your AI.

Your people can talk to it. Only administrators can change it. Every question, answer, and change is logged.

Your AI can only see what you can already open. Permissions come from your systems, not from the AI.

It learns how your company writes. It looks up what your company knows, one question at a time, only from documents the person asking is allowed to open.

How trust and control work

Your business stays with your private AI.

NVIDIA and Apple hardware hosted in the United States. USA-sourced open-weight models, trained on your documents, your process, and your voice. Nothing your team types, uploads, or asks reaches a public AI provider.

See the capacity calculator

This is for

  • Leaders who have tried to hire and could not, or who want margin.
  • Teams of 5 to 75 knowledge workers ready to improve their workflows.

This is not for

  • Anyone wanting a free trial.
  • Companies that want AI to replace professional judgment.

Your questions, answered.

How many hours does a person get back?

The hours are set from your baseline in the assessment. The calculator defaults to 3 hours per person per week; it is a scenario, not a promised result. For professional firms: eligible In-Building programs use a written 5-to-10-hour weekly target range after baseline, with the actual target agreed in writing for CPA, law, insurance, and wealth management firms of 10 to 75 professionals.

Is this about replacing people?

It is about capacity. Your people review every output. The assessment identifies work your current team can improve and where recovered hours could be redeployed.

What does it cost after the assessment?

Cloud implementation and monthly service, or In-Building installation and quarterly Managed AI, are quoted in your assessment report. Most private AI implementations cost less than a third of the fully loaded cost of your next hire.

Cloud-hosted or in-building?

Cloud is the default starting point if you do not want to house equipment. Your private AI runs for your company alone in a US data center. Choose In-Building if you want it installed in your building. The fit call recommends which fits.

How fast?

Either assessment takes two weeks, remotely, and produces a written report. The report scopes Cloud implementation or In-Building installation and the rollout timing. No sandbox, trial, or demo is provided. No AI system is delivered until implementation is paid.

What if your team doesn't use it?

Leadership needs to use it and assign ownership for the approved workflows. The assessment scopes training and the rollout around your work. Cloud includes setup, training on your documents, and monthly change work. Your people review the outputs and identify where the workflow needs to change.

Does this work for a small business owner with ten people?

Yes. The cloud track is built for owner-led companies from about five people up. The assessment baselines your three most repeated workflows, and the calculator on this page shows what three recovered hours a week per person is worth at your numbers.
