A duty, not a preference
Belgian lawyers and accountants operate under professional secrecy (geheimhoudingsplicht / secret professionnel). Matter material stays inside the firm's environment.
Self-hosted AI / Belgium
Self-hosted AI for Belgian companies, under professional secrecy and the GBA.
Private AI deployed for Belgian businesses under the GDPR, with hosting in an EU region and a disclosed data path. Belgian lawyers and accountants carry professional secrecy duties enforced by their professional bodies, so the deployment keeps matter material inside the firm's environment by design.

Why it matters here
Belgian secrecy duties make the data path the conversation.
The GBA supervises GDPR compliance, and the professions enforce secrecy duties. Both are satisfied by one documented data path.
Designed for GDPR review
The Belgian Data Protection Authority supervises the GDPR. The deployment documents purposes, processors, and access for that review.
Dublin or Frankfurt
An EU region such as eu-west-1 (Dublin) or eu-central-1 (Frankfurt) is the default, with on-prem as the strict option.
The three levels
The architecture follows the constraint.
There is no single correct answer. Quality, privacy, residency, and budget decide the path.
Your cloud, in Belgium
App and document store in your account in an EU region such as eu-west-1 (Dublin) or eu-central-1 (Frankfurt), with the model on your key. No GPU required.
For location requirements
An approved cloud region or managed service when residency and procurement matter.
For strict control
Model, embeddings, and retrieval on your hardware when external inference is not acceptable.
What it really takes
Measured workloads, not GPU shopping lists.
Hardware is sized after the workload is real. These are starting points, not quotes.
4 to 8 vCPU, 16 to 32 GB RAM
No GPU required for the app and document store. Model usage bills stay on the client account.
From 24 GB VRAM
A starting point for a small quantized text model. Model size, concurrency, and latency decide the real requirement.
Power, cooling, updates, backups
A GPU is one part of the environment. A partner data centre can be more realistic than an office server room.
Not the first promise
We size hardware after the workload is proven. No GPU inventory before a signed scope and deposit.
Straight answers
Common questions.
Where would Belgian client data be hosted?
An EU region such as eu-west-1 (Dublin) or eu-central-1 (Frankfurt), or on-prem when the requirement is stricter.
Does professional secrecy apply to AI systems?
The duty applies to the professionals. The deployment is designed so matter material never leaves the firm's environment, which is what the duty demands in practice.
Is the system designed for GBA review?
Yes. Purpose, processors, regions, retention, and access are documented as part of the handover.
Do invoices come in euros?
Yes, from €3,300 for a first workflow, with USD and naira floors unchanged.
Secrecy is a duty in Belgium. The architecture is the compliance.
Why trust Pristine3D?
We build and operate production software.
Pristine3D Ltd builds and operates live digital products, and we run private AI workflows internally as part of our own operations. We scope around your real workflow: the documents you own, the questions your team asks, and the access boundary you approve. Based in Lagos, Nigeria, we work remotely with clients worldwide.
We already run live products
Based in Lagos, Nigeria, Pristine3D currently builds and operates smartcards.ng, venu.ng, photoshoot.ng, and ugc.ng in production.
We start with the actual workflow
One input, one output, one test set, and one person who owns the result. We scope a real workflow instead of a transformation programme.
The boundary stays visible
Cloud, model, storage, and messaging accounts stay in your name. The chosen data path, access rules, test record, documentation, and training are part of the agreed scope.

Full pricing and what changes the quote
Own your knowledge base
The model is not the product. The knowledge base is.
Documents, the retrieval index, access rules, and the workflows built around them are the asset, and they compound. We deploy so the knowledge base stays yours: on your accounts, in the environment you choose, under access rules your team defines. The model behind the answers is a connector, so the knowledge base moves with you, not with a vendor.
Your corpus, your index
The document store, metadata, and retrieval setup live on accounts you own. No vendor holds the corpus.
Models are swappable parts
Change the model provider, move regions, or go local without rebuilding the knowledge base or the workflow.
The knowledge base is the alpha
Every improvement to the corpus improves the answers, and the improvement stays with you, not with a vendor.
