Air-gapped AI: full intelligence, zero network connection.

For defence, critical infrastructure and classified work, even on-premise is not enough — no external connection may exist. Air-gapped AI runs fully network-isolated: models and decision layer are installed via data carrier, with no internet and no external APIs.

Even offline the AI stays traceable — with an audit trail per data point. Updates run through controlled airlocks instead of a live connection. Hardening, an operating concept and handover to your security team are part of it: no third-party access, no telemetry.

What you concretely get

Concrete results as a hand-off artefact.

Air-gapped AI for high-security environments: network-isolated language models and decision systems, installable offline, with an audit trail and a traceable basis — without any external dependency.

  • Fully offline-capable models — installed via data carrier, without a network.

  • Traceable decision layer with an audit trail, even without cloud connectivity.

  • Hardening and operating concept for network-isolated environments.

  • Update process via controlled airlocks instead of a live connection.

  • Handover to your security team — no third-party access, no telemetry.

Approach

How we work.

Three phases, clear outputs. You see every step — and can exit after any one of them.

  1. 01

    Design

    Clarify protection class, network isolation and operating constraints with your security team.

  2. 02

    Set up

    Install models and decision layer offline, validate in isolation.

  3. 03

    Hand over

    Operating concept, update airlock and training — entirely in your hands.

Pricing & Models

On request. Project-based. Individualised.

Every engagement is scoped individually based on scope, maturity level, and time horizon. We work project-based with fixed price, day-rate-based with transparent rates (junior to senior), or on a retainer model.

  • Project-based

    Fixed price per phase with a defined definition of done. Preferred for clearly scoped engagements.

  • Day-rate

    Rates tiered by seniority level — Junior, Mid, Senior, Principal. Transparent billing.

  • Retainer

    Fixed monthly hour budget. Useful for operate phases or fractional lead mandates.
