What is private or on-prem AI?
Private AI means running AI models inside your own infrastructure — on-premises or in your own cloud account — instead of sending data to a third-party API. Alpine Edge deploys open models (such as Llama and Mistral) in your environment so your data never leaves it and is never used to train someone else’s model.
Is Alpine Edge’s AI GDPR-compliant?
Yes. Because the models run in your environment with EU data residency, no personal data is shared with external AI providers. We add PII redaction, encryption, access control, and audit logging, and align deployments with the GDPR and ISO 27001 practices from our EU & ISO compliance work.
What is an MCP server and why would I want one?
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server lets AI assistants and agents securely use your internal tools, APIs, and data with scoped permissions and full auditability. Alpine Edge builds MCP servers so your teams’ AI agents can act on your systems safely, instead of hallucinating or being cut off from your data.
What kind of AI-native software does Alpine Edge build?
Retrieval-augmented (RAG) assistants over your own documents, copilots embedded in your workflows, and automation. We already ship AI in production for call centers — call transcription, summarization, objection detection, lead-intent scoring, and automated QA.
How does an AI project with Alpine Edge work?
We work in three phases: an audit of your data, use cases, and constraints; a build phase where we deploy the models, MCP servers, and software; and a run phase where we host, monitor, and improve the system with the same DevOps discipline as the rest of your infrastructure.
