WHERE IT RUNS
Your office, your cloud account, or a mix. You own the hardware or account and hold every key. Nothing goes to an outside service without your approval.
01 / DEPLOYMENT
Discovery recommends one, with real quotes. Scope fixes the architecture before anything is bought.
01 / IN YOUR OFFICE
A machine you own.
On your network.
A server bought in your name and installed on your network. Questions and documents stay in the building, and routine work runs on no one else’s meter. You cover the hardware, the power and Care.
02 / IN YOUR CLOUD
Your own account.
Nothing to house.
The same system in a cloud account your company opens and pays for directly. No machine to house or power, and the account and its keys are yours, not ours.
03 / A MIX
Routine work at home.
The hardest work out.
Your own system handles routine work. The hardest tasks can still go to a hosted service you approve, under rules you set for what may leave. The bill drops. It does not go to zero.
02 / DATA REQUIREMENTS
Name the rules your firm answers to: where data may live, who may see it and what must be logged. Scope records each requirement. Deploy tests the controls before launch and hands over the test results. For data that cannot leave the building, use an office installation.

Responsibilities are written into Scope before anything is built.
You do. The machine is bought in your company’s name, or the cloud account is opened in it. We recommend and quote; you hold the invoice and the warranty.
You do. Every key, admin login and account is issued to your company. We work through access you grant, and you can take it back at any time.
Only what you allow. On site, questions and documents stay on your network. In your cloud, they stay in your own account. In a mix, you set which kinds of work may go to a hosted service.
We do, on Care: monitoring, security updates and fixes, with newer open models tested on your work and swapped in when they do better. Cancel any month.
Hardware or cloud servers, power, Care and any hosted service you keep. Discovery’s savings worksheet sets all of it against what you spend on AI and software today, on your own numbers.
04 / HANDOVER
Deploy takes two to three weeks. It ends with a working system and everything your team needs to run it.
Deploy is a fixed fee, agreed before we start, with acceptance tests written down in Scope. You can stop after any stage and keep what you paid for.
