Private AI for Business

Model decision / Phi

Phi earns its place on small jobs where efficiency beats raw breadth.

Phi models are designed to run efficiently on smaller hardware, which makes them useful for extraction, classification, and focused drafting on a tight footprint. We confirm the current variant, licence, and performance against the actual task.

When Phi makes sense

The smallest model that passes the test wins.

Phi is a good candidate when the workflow is narrow, the hardware is modest, and a large model adds cost without adding answer quality.

01 / TASK

Keep the job narrow

Extract fields, classify documents, or draft from a defined template.

02 / FOOTPRINT

Check the hardware

Confirm memory, storage, and speed for the selected Phi variant and user load.

03 / QUALITY

Test the outputs

Evaluate accuracy on the team's real documents before go-live.

The Phi boundary

Efficiency is useful only when the answer is right.

LICENCE

Current terms win

The current licence and allowed use are confirmed before deployment.

SCOPE

Narrow workflows suit it

Broad, open-ended questions may need a larger or API model instead.

REVIEW

Human review stays final

High-stakes outputs keep a named reviewer and approval step.

A first Phi decision

Start with one narrow workflow.

Choose the task

Pick extraction, classification, or template drafting with a clear success test.

Review the model

Confirm the current variant, licence, hardware, and quality against the task.

Build the grounded setup

Connect the client-owned corpus, retrieval, and permissions.

Test and hand over

Run real documents, fix failures, and deliver the runbook and support route.

Phi is a good sign that small can be enough, when the task is small.

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.

METHOD

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.

OWNERSHIP

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.

Pricing / fixed scope

Know the starting numbers before you ask.

The final quote follows the workflow. Infrastructure and model bills stay on your accounts.

Annual support

Starting from
$3,000 / ₦1.5m
per year

Standard care for one delivered workflow. Optional. Larger deployments and active monitoring are separately scoped.

See support

Architecture review from $500. Standard annual support is $3,000 / ₦1.5m per year for one delivered workflow. New workflows, integrations, active monitoring, and infrastructure are separately scoped; infrastructure, model, storage, and messaging bills stay on client accounts. Full pricing and what changes the quote

Straight answers

Common questions.

Can Phi handle legal or financial documents?

It can extract and classify when the workflow and evaluation set are scoped correctly. The professional still owns review and sign-off.

Does it need a GPU?

Many Phi variants run efficiently on modest hardware. Exact requirements are confirmed for the chosen variant and workload.

What if the task grows later?

The workflow can move to a larger model or an API route without rebuilding the knowledge base.

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.

THE ASSET

Your corpus, your index

The document store, metadata, and retrieval setup live on accounts you own. No vendor holds the corpus.

THE LOCK-IN

Models are swappable parts

Change the model provider, move regions, or go local without rebuilding the knowledge base or the workflow.

THE ALPHA

The knowledge base is the alpha

Every improvement to the corpus improves the answers, and the improvement stays with you, not with a vendor.
