MADE BY TOP ENGINEERS, DATA SCIENTISTS & AI/ML EXPERTS
WHAT WE DO
Your AI strategy, your LLM, your data … your AI
Consulting
AI strategy, roadmaps, policies, coaching, workshops. Identifying high-impact use cases unique to your goals and operations.
Applications
Developing and building custom AI tools for specific use cases. Using the latest, fit for purpose, correct weight, public AI models.
Infrastructure
Our sovereign GPU servers and workstations use the latest HPC for cost control, data privacy, energy efficiency, and ease of use.
KEY BENEFITS
AI that works for you and no one else
Big savings & cost certainty
Zainode avoids the high and uncertain cost, waste, and lack of visibility with public clouds and LLMs. Our servers can process petabytes/day far more cost-effectively than public models.
Trust & compliance
Safely and securely unlock the benefits of AI. Organisations who keep AI closed to their data unlock powerful insights and competitive advantages.
Secure, auditable inputs & outputs
Know everything in and out of your AI, including reasoning. Explains AI’s decisions and advice to better manage liability and risk. Prompts and outputs stay entirely in your environment.
Fast access
POCs and go live in days, not months or even years. Plug and play solutions enabling fast, low risk roll out.
Model neutrality
We’re not aligned to specific models allowing us to recommend the best models for the use case. As LLMs evolve, our flexible solutions quickly adopt new models which are immediately available to you.
Expert 24/7 support
Get hands-on, responsive, local and helpful support from dedicated human engineers.
Zainode’s private AI is ideal for training, deploying models locally & research
LLM inference & fine tuning
We’re model agnostic, taking the best, fit-for-purpose private models from Meta, Google, Qwen, Mistral & Alibaba etc. into production for your use case.
Agentic chatbots & copilots
Fully offline, private & fast. Optimised for text question-answering retrieval.
Local RAG pipelines
Private Q&A bots with real-time indexing. Our RAG systems enable a chatbot / virtual assistant to provide answers, accurately and truthfully.

OUR APPROACH
We don’t just sell products
We provide AI solutions. We listen, guide and help clients customise and use private AI. We don’t just sell products or provide model access, and let clients “figure it out”.
Our most successful solutions are built in collaboration with our clients. Our engagement model is agile, transparent and founded in human-centred design and change management principles, ensuring the final solution is powerful and practical.
Our goal is a long-term partnership to support clients’ ongoing AI journey while at the same time ensuring client agency and independence in the systems we deliver.
-
Assess client goals, requirements, tech landscape and strategy, AI use case possibilities, compliance obligations, context, risks, governance, project charter, scope. See more >
-
Rapid PoC to stakeholders. Use PoC feedback to iterate. Agile approach minimises risk, ensures tool evolves to meet the genuine user needs.
-
Develop PoC into robust, secure, scalable enterprise-ready system. Emphasis on integration, ensuring our solutions can seamlessly connect with existing systems.
-
Throughout dev & field trials, system is iteratively UAT. Benchmarks for evaluation set through collaboratively defined design guidelines, performance measures, and contextual criteria.
-
We manage full deployment & implementation into production env. Includes comprehensive training, change management. Ongoing support ensuring AI operates ethically.
Why us
1. Diverse expertise
Very few local teams have the diverse skills that we do. Our engineering team are experts in each system layer — hardware, firmware, hypervisor, OS, Kubernetes, containers/ apps, software & AI DCs. Our engineers work alongside our ML, HCI, data privacy, commercial, legal, product and UX/UI experts.
2. We listen then act
We listen to clients, then we provide a consulting led solution, which may or may not include us. We’re a solution provider, where we guide and help clients use private AI, software and hardware — not just give clients access to models and call it a day.
3. Great comms
Whilst AI is very good at communicating … everything is about people. Our team take immense pride being good communicators.
We keep our clients informed — concisely, timely, authentically and jargon-free. Our clients know we have integrity, protect their interests, and can be counted on in critical moments.
4. Our purpose & values
We want everyone who wants to benefit from AI to do so safely, securely and privately. We want data to be private. Big tech has done lots of good for society, but we’re wary of their motives. We’re often anti big tech and all the BS that goes with big tech.
Our purpose and values mean everything to us. You’ll see this in our team. It’s not just words on a page.
5. We’re local
Our team, premises & infra are all based in Australia and Germany, ensuring 100% data sovereignty for respective clients in Aus and EU.
The future is private.
Private AI enables innovation without compromise, empowering organisations to lead in a new era of intelligent, privacy-first technology.
