The Challenge

Each pilot rebuilds the same foundation.

By the third pilot, most companies have three sets of connectors, three permission models and no shared way to test or cost them.

01

Repeated foundations

Model access and connectors are recoded for each project.

02

Late cost and quality checks

Budgets and tests arrive after the pilot is live.

03

Drifting integrations

Agents reach the same system with different rules.

04

Dependence on the builders

Only the original team can maintain custom parts.

What You Get
Capabilities

Every new use case starts further ahead.

The Foundry connects approved systems and models, applies controls and shows quality, cost and ownership from the first build.

CONNECT

Reusable connectors

Expose business systems as governed tools through MCP servers, built once and reused.

Perfect for
  • MCP servers
  • Connectors
  • Tool contracts
  • Source permissions
ISOLATE

Multi-tenant security

Separate clients, units or brands with namespaces, signed tokens, a tenant registry, suspension and audit logs.

Perfect for
  • Tenancy
  • Tokens
  • Audit trails
  • Suspension
ROUTE

Model access and budgets

Assign approved models to tasks and track usage, speed and cost per workload.

Perfect for
  • Model routing
  • Budgets
  • Latency
  • Usage
ORCHESTRATE

Agents and review

Give each agent a defined job and tool scope, with people approving major actions.

Perfect for
  • Agents
  • Workflows
  • Approvals
  • Handoffs
VERIFY

Testing and traces

Keep test cases for each capability and record evidence when models or prompts change.

Perfect for
  • Evals
  • Traces
  • Versioning
  • Regression

How It Works

01. Assess

We find what your first two or three use cases have in common.

02. Configure

We set up the shared base and build the first custom workflow on top.

03. Reuse

We measure quality and cost, improve shared parts and ship the next use case faster.

What you get!
Business Outcomes

Each AI project gets cheaper to build.

→

Shared parts reused

Connectors and controls carry to the next project.

→

Visible business logic

Your workflow stays separate from the plumbing.

→

Measured from day one

Quality, speed and cost are tracked before rollout.

→

Consistent permissions

Access is enforced at each connector.

→

Tenants kept apart

Clients and units cannot see each other's data.

→

People at key gates

Approval is reserved for major decisions.

→

Testable model changes

New models are tested before they go live.

→

Maintainable systems

Contracts, versions and owners replace custom wiring.

Case in Point

Private equity AI platform

Client engagement, anonymized

Each private equity firm has its own templates, criteria and confidentiality rules, and building a custom system for each would be slow and hard to maintain. We built our PE platform on the Foundry: four MCP servers, 47 tools, AWS hosting and full tenant isolation, with each firm's rules in its own files. Onboarding a new firm means configuring its templates and presentation layer, nothing more.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an AI foundry?

A shared, governed environment for building AI applications. It provides reusable model access, connectors, permissions, testing and cost controls, so teams focus on business-specific work.

What is the Model Context Protocol?

MCP is an open standard for connecting AI models to tools and data through defined servers. You build a connector once and reuse it across agents and models, with permissions enforced at the server.

How do you keep tenants separate on a shared platform?

With separate namespaces, signed tokens per tenant, a tenant registry, instant suspension and audit logs. The code is shared; the data never is.

Should we build or buy an AI platform?

Buy commodity pieces such as model access and hosting. Build what reflects your business: workflows, templates, domain knowledge and presentation.

How many use cases justify a shared foundation?

Usually two or three. Once a second project needs the same connectors and controls, a shared base saves time on every project after it.

Get Started

Share anything your team built twice.

We will separate the reusable base from your custom workflow and pick the first use case.
