Operational AI Strategy

Can AI integrate with Legacy ERPs?

Yes. We specialize in the 'Brownfield Integration' problem. Using Python-based RPA (Robotic Process Automation) and custom API bridges, we connect modern LLMs to legacy SAP/Oracle/Sage systems. We allow you to query 20 years of CSV data using natural language.

What is RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)?

Standard AI hallucinates because it relies on training data. We build RAG Pipelines that force the AI to 'read' your internal manuals, compliance PDFs, and databases before answering. This grounds the AI in your truth, reducing error rates to near zero for technical queries.

Is data privacy guaranteed?

We deploy Local LLMs (Llama 3 / Mistral) or Enterprise-tier APIs that explicitly do not train on your data. For highly sensitive sectors (Legal/Defense), we can air-gap the model entirely, running it on your own private cloud infrastructure.
