Local AI Server
Self-contained AI infrastructure: Run capable local AI models without external API dependencies.
The Challenge
Pricing for cloud-based AI APIs continues to rise, rate limits tighten, and major providers increasingly acknowledge their inability to sustain services at current pricing levels. Organizations relying on AI-powered workflows and agents face a growing dependency on unpredictable, ever-increasing cost structures.
At the same time, many local alternatives fail at the hardware level: pure CPU inference is too slow, while enterprise GPU solutions are prohibitively expensive. The gap lies in a practical, cost-efficient architecture that can truly run high-performance models in production on available prosumer equipment.
Our Solution
We built a system based on a Threadripper Pro 3975WX processor paired with four AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX GPUs, optimally combining raw computational power with commercially available hardware. Through AMD ROCm, GPU acceleration is effectively harnessed for AI inference on consumer-grade silicon.
The server runs two inference backends side by side: llama.cpp and LM Studio for users who value simple configuration and low power consumption, vLLM for scenarios where maximum throughput and enterprise-grade features are paramount. The appropriate backend is selected based on the requirements of each use case.
The result is a fully autonomous server: no data leaves the network, no ongoing API fees, no rate limits. After the initial investment, the only cost is electricity - and the system performance allows productive use of the largest and most complex models available.

Prototype: AI agent proves fully automated travel proposal creation - request to PDF.
A working prototype demonstrates the full workflow: an AI agent receives a travel request, selects suitable flights, assembles the proposal, and outputs it as a PDF. Next step: pilot partnership with live GDS connection.
