Why own the machine
Four things change when the AI runs on hardware you own rather than on someone else's servers.
- Privacy
- There is no third-party processor to name in your DPIA. Nothing is sent to an AI provider, because there is no AI provider.
- Fixed cost
- You pay for the hardware and its upkeep, not for each request. The bill does not move when usage does.
- No per-token metering
- No tokens, no seats, no per-document charges. There is nothing to meter, and the eleventh person is free.
- No model churn
- The model changes when you decide, not when a vendor does. No silent swap of the model, the terms or the price underneath your workflow.
