## AI on your terms

Run our AI anywhere with deployment options tailored to your unique infrastructure, security, and performance needs.

### Deployment Options

#### Private

Run our models on-premises or within an isolated virtual private cloud (VPC) environment for complete data sovereignty and governance.

- Highly regulated industries
- Meeting strict data residency needs
- Protecting highly sensitive data

#### Model Vault

Dedicated. Logically isolated. Fully managed. Deploy through Model Vault for scalable, high-performance inference without sacrificing enterprise control. Available for both model deployments and North.

- Enterprises constrained by infrastructure provisioning
- Companies balancing multi-tenant convenience with performance guarantees
- Teams managing products with highly variable inference demand

#### Public/Hybrid cloud

Integrate private infrastructure with public cloud resources to balance compliance requirements with flexibility and scalability.

- Enterprises needing local control and cloud flexibility
- Companies with variable workloads
- Optimizing cost and performance across environments

#### SaaS

Deploy through our fully managed SaaS platform to scale securely without the cost and complexity of managing your own infrastructure. Available for model deployments only.

- Small to midsize businesses
- Handling non-sensitive data
- Running AI without infrastructure overhead
