Case Studies

Your AI. Your hardware. Your data stays yours.

Foundry turns an Apple Silicon computer into a private AI system that handles real work — document processing, client support, internal knowledge, code review — without sending a single byte to a cloud provider.

The problem we solve

"I'm spending too much on AI API bills"

You're paying £500-3,000+ every month to OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google. The workloads are real — document processing, support, search — but the bills keep growing. And every query sends your data through someone else's servers.

"My clients won't allow cloud AI"

Your clients — solicitors, accountants, healthcare, finance — have data obligations. GDPR, professional confidentiality, client contracts. They don't want their information going through a third-party API. But you still need AI to stay competitive.

"Local AI sounds great but I can't make it work"

You've heard about running models locally. You tried it. It was slow, confusing, and unreliable. You don't have an ML engineering team. You just want it to work — like a tool, not a research project.

Foundry is the answer to all three. See what it can do →

How it works (plain English)

What Foundry is

Foundry is a complete AI system that runs on an Apple Silicon computer in your office. It's not a website. It's not a subscription to another AI service. It's your own AI — installed, configured, and supported.

You know how a printer sits in the corner and just works? You send it documents, it prints them, nobody thinks about it. Foundry is like that, but for AI. You give it work, it does the work, and your data never leaves the building.

You don't need to understand machine learning. You don't need to know which model to use or how much memory it needs. You tell us what you want AI to do for your business, and we set it up so it just works.

What it does for your team

Five real deployments. Real numbers.

Why it's different

Built for real work, not demos

It does real work, not chat.

Most AI tools are a chat box — you ask a question, it answers. Foundry runs workflows. It watches folders for new documents and processes them. It monitors support inboxes and drafts responses. It reviews code when PRs are opened. It does the work in the background, and you approve it.

Your data never leaves the building.

Every AI provider wants you to send your data to their servers. Foundry runs in your office, on your hardware. The AI model, the processing, the results — all local. No API calls, no third-party access, no data leaving your network.

It's supported, not DIY.

Running local AI is hard if you're not an ML engineer. Foundry is installed and configured by people who do this every day. When something breaks — and with AI, things break — you call us, not a GitHub issue tracker. We support what we install.

It's honest about what it can't do.

Foundry doesn't replace your team. It doesn't make decisions. It doesn't send anything without your approval. Every output is a draft for a human to review. We'd rather under-promise and over-deliver than the other way round.
