Abundy, Inc.

Sovereign AI Systems
Built In-House

We design, govern, and operate sovereign AI systems that are fast, private, and future-proof — without sending your data to the cloud. SovereignKeeper is our live capability demonstration for secure, verifiable knowledge assistants.

"We help organizations adopt AI with the same rigor they apply to legal and financial risk."

The Challenge

AI Is Mission-Critical.
But Cloud Risk Is Real.

Cloud AI Is Risky

Fast and convenient, but your sensitive data becomes someone else's asset. Usage costs are unpredictable, and compliance liability stays with you.

On-Prem AI Is Hard

Safe and private, but slow to deploy and difficult to manage without deep, specialized expertise that most organizations lack.

💰

Accountability Is Missing

AI decisions now carry regulatory, legal, and brand exposure. Yet most organizations lack a clear governance owner.

The result: stalled AI adoption, hidden risk, or dangerous "Shadow AI" usage across the organization.

Our Approach

Abundy Sovereign AI Advisory

We design and govern your AI strategy the same way outside counsel governs legal risk — with accountability, independence, and clear decision rights.

01

Architecture & Deployment

We design the right AI architecture for your specific risk profile — deciding when to use cloud, hybrid, or fully on-premises systems.

02

Governance & Policy

We establish frameworks for responsible AI use, including data privacy, model governance, vendor evaluation, and regulatory compliance.

03

Vendor & Model Oversight

We perform due diligence on AI vendors, evaluate models for fit and risk, and ensure you're never locked into a single provider.

04

Accountability

We stand accountable when AI decisions matter — providing board-ready reporting, incident response planning, and ongoing risk management.

Capability Demonstration

SovereignKeeper by Abundy

SovereignKeeper is our live demonstration of how a secure, private AI assistant should work inside regulated organizations.

Private by Design

Runs Inside Your Environment

All inference, retrieval, and storage live inside your infrastructure. No external model calls unless explicitly approved.

Verifiable Outputs

Citations Built In

Every answer ties back to your documents with citations, reducing hallucinations and improving auditability.

Operational Ready

Designed for Real Work

Fast AI for daily tasks, Deep AI for long-context analysis, and strict access controls for sensitive data — all governed under a single policy framework.

Sovereign AI

Your Data Stays Yours

We deploy AI systems inside your environment. No data leakage. No black boxes.

Fast AI

Instant Responses for Daily Work

Optimized for speed — document drafting, Q&A, summarization, and everyday operational tasks with sub-second response times.

Deep AI

Long-Context Analysis

Designed for depth — audits, strategy review, IP analysis, and compliance checks across thousands of pages of internal documents.

Custom Knowledge Base (RAG)

AI That Knows Your Organization

We build retrieval-augmented generation systems so your AI answers questions from your own contracts, policies, financial records, and manuals — with verifiable citations and source links. Your data stays in an encrypted local environment. When access is revoked, the AI instantly "forgets."

Who We Serve

If AI Failure Would Be Existential,
This Is for You.

Legal & Compliance

Document review, privilege protection, regulatory exposure management

Financial Services

Client data protection, algorithmic governance, audit readiness

Healthcare & Life Sciences

HIPAA compliance, research data sovereignty, clinical decision support

IP-Sensitive Engineering

Trade secret protection, proprietary R&D, competitive intelligence

The CFO Reality Check

Why Not Just Use the Cloud?

Cloud AI looks cheap — until it isn't.

Issue Cloud AI Sovereign AI
Cost Predictability Variable & escalating Fixed & predictable
Data Ownership Ambiguous Yours, completely
Regulatory Exposure High Controlled
Vendor Lock-in Strong Optional
Incident Liability Still yours Governed & mitigated

The hard truth: If a cloud AI system causes harm, regulators don't fine the cloud provider — they fine you. Sovereign AI isn't an IT decision. It's a fiduciary one.

Engagement Models

Retainer-Based, Like Legal Counsel

We structure engagements as retainers — not projects — because AI governance is an ongoing responsibility, not a one-time deliverable.

Tier A

AI Counsel

Advisory retainer for organizations beginning their AI governance journey.

  • Monthly AI risk review
  • Quarterly strategy sessions
  • Email & messaging advisory access
  • Vendor evaluation support
Discuss Fit
Tier C

Sovereign AI Operator

Full deployment and management for regulated and high-risk organizations.

  • Everything in Fractional AI Governance
  • Hands-on system deployment
  • RAG / knowledge base setup
  • Ongoing model management
  • Dedicated response SLA
Discuss Fit

Get Started

Strategic Sovereign AI Audit

Stop treating AI as an IT project and start treating it as a fiduciary responsibility.

Why We Charge for This Session

Most AI "consultants" give away free discovery calls because they're selling a specific tool or platform. We sell judgment, risk mitigation, and continuity. Like an attorney or compliance auditor, our value is in our independence. This fee ensures our time is focused entirely on your risk profile — without vendor bias.

The consultation fee is 100% credited toward your first month's retainer should we move forward with an engagement.

Quick-Look Risk Triage

30 Minutes

A rapid assessment of your current "Shadow AI" usage and immediate data leakage risks. We identify high-risk workflows exposing sensitive IP to public cloud models.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked

What is "Fractional AI Governance"?

Fractional AI governance provides the same strategic leadership, policy oversight, and accountability as a full-time AI executive — at a fraction of the cost. You get dedicated expertise without the $300k+ salary.

What does "Sovereign AI" mean?

Sovereign AI means your AI systems run inside your environment — on your hardware, under your control. Your data never leaves your organization. You own the models, the outputs, and the infrastructure. No vendor has access to your information.

Do you sell hardware or software?

No. We sell judgment and governance. We will recommend the right hardware and software for your needs, but we have no vendor affiliations or resale margins. Our independence is what makes our advice trustworthy.

Can you help us build a custom AI knowledge base?

Yes. We specialize in Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems that let your AI answer questions from your own documents — contracts, policies, manuals, financial records — with verifiable citations. All data stays encrypted and local.

How is this different from an AI consulting firm?

Most AI consultants sell implementation projects with a defined end date. We provide ongoing governance — like a law firm on retainer. AI risk doesn't end when a project ships. Someone needs to be accountable continuously.

What if we already use cloud AI?

That's fine. We design hybrid architectures where appropriate. Some workloads belong in the cloud. The key is making a deliberate, risk-informed decision about what goes where — not defaulting to cloud because it's easier.
