Why us
1. Commercial & technical expertise
Commercial outcomes are critical. Very few local teams have the commercial and tech skills that we do. Our engineering team are experts in each layer — hardware, firmware, OS, containers, software, HPC, networking & DCs. Our engineers are teamed with our HCI, privacy, commercial & legal experts.
2. Our purpose & values
We want everyone who wants to benefit from AI to do so safely, securely and privately. We want data to be private. Big tech has done lots of good for society, but we’re wary of their motives. We’re often anti big tech and all the BS that goes with big tech.
Our purpose and values mean everything to us. You’ll see this in our team. It’s not just words on a page.
3. We’re local, fast
Our team, premises and infrastructure are all based in Australia and Germany, ensuring 100% data sovereignty for respective clients in Aus and EU. It also means we’re fast to respond and there’s minimal latency.
The future is private.
Private AI enables innovation without compromise, empowering organisations to lead in a new era of intelligent, privacy-first technology.
