A controlled model gateway
Define which models and providers may be used for which tasks. Apply authentication, usage limits and routing policies, with a way to evaluate a provider change before it affects production.
Create the architecture, permissions and operating discipline needed to put AI to work across teams, systems and sensitive information.
Design your AI architectureThe starting question
A collection of working pilots is not yet an enterprise platform. Model access, knowledge permissions, evaluation, integrations and incident ownership need deliberate boundaries. We separate shared foundations from use-case-specific workflows so teams can build without duplicating the most important controls.
Target architecture, an integration and identity model, evaluation standards, a prioritised delivery roadmap and an operating-responsibility matrix.
The work / From design to operation
Define which models and providers may be used for which tasks. Apply authentication, usage limits and routing policies, with a way to evaluate a provider change before it affects production.
Connect selected repositories, retain document ownership and apply the caller’s permissions to retrieval. Answers should link to their sources and handle stale or conflicting material.
Give each agent a bounded job, limited tools and explicit escalation paths. Separate a proposed action from permission to execute it, especially where money, access or commitments are involved.
Agree who owns the platform, each workflow, its data and its evaluation. Create release gates, incident procedures and service expectations appropriate to the consequences of failure.

Provider and deployment review
Often, but they should be assessed rather than absorbed automatically. We review the pilot’s data access, dependencies, evaluation, ownership and actual usage before choosing to extend, replace or retire it.
Not always. The deployment decision depends on the information, providers, threat model, latency and operating capacity. Different workloads may reasonably use different patterns.
