TonsleyAI is the private AI platform we deploy for European customers. Open-weight models up to 200 billion parameters, fine-tuned on your data, running entirely inside your environment. No data ever leaves your control. Built for the AI projects that cannot afford to leak - finance, healthcare, government, regulated SMEs.
That is the question that decides whether an AI project ships or stalls. The hosted models are powerful. They are also a one-way data pipe to a third-party vendor. For finance, healthcare, government and any SME in a regulated sector, that is the end of the conversation.
If your proprietary documents, customer records and internal IP have to leave your environment to be useful, the AI project sits behind your legal team forever.
Vendor-hosted models update on the vendor's schedule, not yours. Compliance evidence built against version A is invalid against version B.
TonsleyAI answers all three the same way: the open-weight model runs in your environment, the data stays in your environment, the version moves only when you decide.
A working framework for buyers - the six ways AI gets deployed today, and what each costs in data control. TonsleyAI is the no-risk option at the bottom of the table.

AWS, Azure or GCP - your tenant, your account, your VPC. Open-weight frontier models deployed inside your private network with no internet egress for model traffic. EU-resident regions by default for European customers, with full audit logging and IAM-based access control. The most flexible mode and the one we deploy most often.
Your private cloud plus the hyperscalers’ frontier models. Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock or Google Vertex AI accessed from your tenant - data and orchestration stay inside your perimeter, the heavy lifting runs on managed AI services. EU-resident endpoints by default. The pragmatic middle ground when full private deployment is overkill.
Your data centre, your hardware, air-gapped where required. We deploy the full TonsleyAI stack onto GPU servers you own - typical configurations run open-weight models up to 70B parameters on a single node, larger ones across a small cluster. The mode for finance, defence, healthcare and any work where data physically cannot leave the premises.
Pre-configured hardware appliance shipped to your office and live in a day. Built for SMEs that want private AI without provisioning cloud infrastructure or running their own data centre - open-weight models up to 200B parameters, the same orchestration layer as our larger deployments for a friction of the costs, and ongoing remote operations from our team included.
Open-weight frontier-class models, fine-tuned on your proprietary data inside your environment. No third-party retention.
CRMs, ERPs, databases, cloud services. Low-code visual builder for multi-step AI workflows.
The same Model Context Protocol that powers Digit Automate. Safe, observable, agent-ready workflow execution against your real systems.
