Why Global Enterprises Choose On-Premise

Meet strict regulatory requirements, eliminate recurring seat fees, and retain absolute ownership over customer data and AI inference.

100% Data Sovereignty

Customer conversations, attachments, and vector embeddings stay exclusively inside your firewall. Built for GDPR-aligned data handling and strict regulatory requirements.

Private AI & Local LLMs

Connect any OpenAI-compatible inference server, such as Ollama, vLLM, or a private Azure OpenAI instance. Run vector similarity queries against your local PostgreSQL pgvector instance.

Containerized 1-Command Deploy

Deploy anywhere in minutes using official Docker Compose configurations or enterprise Kubernetes Helm charts with automated zero-downtime rolling upgrades.

Source Code & Custom Extensions

Obtain full source code access to the Go API and React web application. Build proprietary domain modules, custom webhook integrations, or bespoke authentication adapters.

Unlimited Seats & Workspaces

Eliminate unpredictable per-seat pricing. Create hundreds of isolated workspaces, support operators, and customer records on your own infrastructure without incremental billing.

Direct Core Engineer SLA

Direct access to our senior core architects via dedicated Slack/Teams channels. Includes assisted deployment onboarding, security audits, and guaranteed emergency patch SLAs.

FAQ

On-Premise Licensing FAQ

What are the minimum hardware requirements? ↓

For small to mid deployments (up to 50 active operators), a single VM with 4 vCPUs, 8 GB RAM, and 50 GB SSD storage is sufficient. For high-volume enterprise clusters with local LLMs, we provide Kubernetes Helm sizing guides.

Can Indexu operate in an air-gapped environment without internet access? ↓

Yes! When using local AI inference through OpenAI-compatible endpoints (such as Ollama or internal vLLM) and offline license keys, Indexu requires zero outbound internet connectivity.

How are software updates and security patches delivered? ↓

Updates are published as versioned Docker image tags and Helm chart releases to our private container registry or tarball packages for air-gapped imports.
