Chapter 1

Your data is too sensitive
for someone else's cloud.

You've seen what AI can do. You know it could transform your operations — answering questions, processing documents, automating workflows, helping your team work faster.

But there's a problem. Your data — client files, contracts, financials, IP, internal communications — can't be uploaded to ChatGPT or any cloud AI. Your compliance team said no. Your clients expect confidentiality. Your industry demands it.

So you're stuck. The companies with nothing to protect get all the AI advantages, while you watch from the sidelines.

Chapter 2

What if the AI ran on your servers?

Not a cloud service. Not someone else's API. Your hardware. Your network. Your rules.

We deploy a production-grade large language model directly on your infrastructure. Then we build a custom AI agent around it — trained on your business context, connected to your systems, accessible to your team.

Every query, every document, every conversation stays inside your walls. No data ever touches the public internet.

"We run our own AI infrastructure in-house. This isn't theory — it's how we operate every day."

What you actually get

🧠

Local LLM Deployment

We install and optimise a production-grade language model on your hardware. Llama 3.1, Mistral, Qwen, DeepSeek — we pick the best model for your use case and GPU. Runs via Ollama or vLLM for enterprise throughput.

🤖

Custom AI Agent

A persistent agent that knows your business. We build custom tools, integrate your data sources (email, CRM, documents, databases), and train it on your context. It gets smarter over time with vector memory.

📚

RAG Knowledge Base

Retrieval-Augmented Generation — your documents become searchable AI knowledge. Upload policies, contracts, manuals, and the AI answers questions from them accurately. All stored locally in a vector database.

🔌

System Integrations

Connect to your existing tools — Microsoft 365, Salesforce, Xero, internal APIs, databases, file shares. The agent reads and writes to your systems, automating workflows that currently eat hours.

💻

Web Interface & Chat

A clean web UI your team can access from any device on your network. Chat with the AI, upload documents, generate reports. No training needed — if they can use ChatGPT, they can use this.

🛡️

Managed & Maintained

We don't just install and walk away. Monthly managed service includes model updates, performance tuning, new tool development, monitoring, and support. Your AI gets better every month.

Built for industries that can't afford data leaks

⚖️

Legal Firms

Client privilege. Document review. Contract analysis. AI that never shares a word outside your firm.

🏥

Healthcare

Patient data stays on-site. Clinical notes, research, administrative automation — fully private.

🏦

Financial Services

Client portfolios, risk analysis, compliance docs — processed locally with zero cloud exposure.

🏛️

Government

Classified and sensitive data. On-premise deployment meets IRAP and PSPF requirements.

🔬

R&D / IP-Heavy

Protect trade secrets, patents, and research data. AI assistance without IP exposure risk.

🏗️

Any Regulated Industry

If your industry has data residency, privacy, or compliance requirements — this is your path to AI.

Cloud AI vs Private AI — Annual Cost

10-person team, moderate usage Cloud AI (GPT/Claude) Private AI (Ours)
API / subscription costs $12,000 — $36,000/yr $0 (your hardware)
Setup & customisation $5,000 — $20,000 $5,000 — $25,000
Ongoing management $500 — $2,000/mo $500 — $2,000/mo
Data leaves your network? Yes — every query Never
Year 1 total (mid-range) $37,000 — $68,000 $17,000 — $49,000

How we deploy it

1

Discovery & Assessment

We audit your hardware, understand your use cases, and map your data sources. You tell us what the AI should do — answer client questions, review documents, automate reports, whatever you need.

1–2 days · Remote or on-site

2

Infrastructure Setup

We install the LLM runtime (Ollama/vLLM), configure the vector database (ChromaDB/Qdrant), set up the agent framework, and deploy the web interface. Everything containerised with Docker for easy management.

2–5 days · Remote access to your server

3

Agent Training & Integration

We build custom tools for your agent, ingest your documents into the knowledge base, connect your systems (email, CRM, files), and fine-tune responses for your business domain.

3–7 days · Iterative with your team

4

Launch & Handover

Team onboarding, documentation, monitoring dashboards. Your people start using it immediately. We stay on for managed support — model updates, new capabilities, performance tuning.

1–2 days · Training included

Total: 1–3 weeks from kickoff to production.

Most cloud AI vendors take longer just to scope the project.

Why Sparrofox?

We don't just talk about self-hosted AI. We live it.

🐉 We run our own

Our AI agent (Little Dragon) runs 24/7 on self-hosted infrastructure — managing 40+ Docker containers, triaging email, controlling smart home devices, and building software. This is our production system, not a lab experiment.

🏗️ Enterprise architecture

Led by a certified Solutions Architect (PMP, PRINCE2) with enterprise consulting experience across Microsoft, Azure, and Dataverse. We build things that scale and that IT teams can maintain.

⚡ AI-accelerated delivery

Our AI builds overnight. What takes traditional consultancies weeks of billable hours, we deliver in days. You're not paying for a team of 10 sitting in meetings — you're paying for results.
