Private AI on infrastructure you control.

OpenWAS deploys open weight language models inside your cloud or data center, puts one governed gateway in front of every model you use, and builds the AI tools your teams rely on. Then we keep it running.

  • Any modelOpen weight or closed, chosen by testing on your own data.
  • Your environmentAWS, Azure, Google Cloud, your data center or an air gapped site.
  • Fully operatedMonitoring, upgrades, model refreshes and support after launch.

Your data is already flowing into AI. The question is who controls it.

18%

of enterprise employees paste data into generative AI tools, and 71.6% of that access runs through personal accounts the company cannot see.

What we do

Everything a company needs to use AI privately, from the first decision to daily operation.

AI strategy and assessment

Find the workloads worth automating, classify the data they touch and map the rules they must follow.

Model selection and fine tuning

Test open weight and closed models on your own tasks, review licenses, and adapt the winner to your data.

Private AI infrastructure

GPU capacity, model serving, networking, identity and monitoring, built as code in your own account.

AI gateway and data control

One governed entry point to every model, with masking, routing, budgets, guardrails and audit logs.

AI tools, agents and automation

Assistants over your documents, agents for operations and integrations with the systems you already run.

Managed AI operations

Monitoring, upgrades, model refreshes, evaluation and support, with agreed service levels.

Open and closed models behind one control layer

Open weight models give you ownership and predictable cost. Closed frontier models still lead on some of the hardest tasks. You should be able to use both without losing control of your data.

  • Sensitive data stays on models running inside your network
  • Personal and secret values are masked before any request leaves
  • Every request is authenticated, budgeted and recorded
  • Switching models becomes a configuration change, not a rebuild

What teams build with private AI

The strongest returns usually come from back office work: documents, checks and requests that take people hours every day.

Document intake

Read purchase orders, delivery notes and forms, extract the fields and post them to your ERP.

Knowledge assistant

Answers from manuals, procedures and policies, with links to the exact source page.

Report drafting

Turn shift logs, quality data and incident notes into consistent daily and weekly reports.

Deployed where your data has to stay

Your cloud account

AWS, Azure or Google Cloud, in the region you choose, inside your own network.

Your data center

On your GPU servers, sized and configured for the models you need.

Air gapped

Fully offline sites for defense, public sector and critical infrastructure.

Hybrid

Sensitive work stays private while approved tasks use hosted models through the gateway.

Designed for the frameworks your auditors use

We build controls and evidence that support these standards and regulations. Certification and legal responsibility stay with your organization.

Why companies choose OpenWAS

Model neutral

We are not tied to any model maker. We recommend what wins on your data, and design so you can switch later.

You own everything

Infrastructure, code, prompts, evaluation sets and fine tuned weights live in your accounts.

Open foundations

Built on proven open source such as vLLM, SGLang and Kubernetes, with no proprietary runtime to license.

Engineers end to end

The people who scope your project are the people who build and run it.
