STEP 01
We listen first
A free, no-obligation conversation about what you're actually trying to solve, before we propose anything.
Self-hosted AI specialists
Owning your AI is the future.
Let us help you get there.
The value of AI shouldn't come with a trade-off in privacy, cost or control. We help you make deliberate choices that match your needs.

The problem
The usual options don't start with your problem.
Big-vendor platforms sell you their roadmap
You adapt to the tool, not the other way around, and your costs and your data both live on someone else's terms. By the time it's wired into how your team works, moving off it costs more than staying.
No one knows where the data actually ends up
Most businesses want AI in production, but the moment real customer data is involved, no one wants to be the one who put it through a black box they don't control.
DIY self-hosting leaves you alone with it
Keeping up with a fast-moving open-source ecosystem, with no one to call when it breaks. Generic consultancies bring frameworks and workshops, then leave before anything runs in production.
We heard the same thing from nearly everyone
“They weren't allowed to give away their data, and this meant a lot of them decided to just cut out AI instead.”
Martin, PineGrove
The actual blocker is proving, concretely, that your data stays under your control. With self-hosting, that's an architectural guarantee.
How we work
Three steps, no commitment to begin.
STEP 02
We show, not pitch
Where it helps, we build a working proof of concept, so you can see the idea running against your use case instead of a slide deck.
STEP 03
We build what fits
Open-source models, self-hosted on your choice of infrastructure, shaped around how your team actually works, not a generic template.
Why PineGrove
Founder-led, hands-on
You work directly with the people building the solution: full-stack development, product design, and team leadership. No account managers relaying to an engineering team you never meet.
Deep, current expertise
We know open-weight models and self-hosted infrastructure first-hand, so we can get your setup running and hand it over to you. We're not just resellers of some third party black-box API.
Your costs stop moving
Open models on right-sized infrastructure with transparent pricing, instead of per-token bill which grows every time your team uses the thing you built.
We'll say when AI isn't the answer
Sometimes the honest answer to a problem is a simpler system, or none at all. We'd rather tell you that in the first conversation than bill you for finding out.
Pricing
Every engagement is scoped to what you actually need. There's no package to fit yourself into.
It starts with a free conversation.
