PRIVATE AI ANALYTICS
Two products, one controlled path
EntailDB turns questions into reviewable database analysis. Ardua AI controls which models may receive the data and records the decisions it governs. Each product can stand alone; together they form Private AI Analytics.
ENTAILDB
Explore connected databases in plain language, refine the analysis through conversation, and open the Work panel to inspect SQL and rows.
ARDUA AI
Apply local policy before data reaches a model, keep restricted work on approved local paths, and preserve evidence of governed decisions.
Ask follow-up questions when a fixed report cannot anticipate the next one.
See the query and returned rows behind the answer instead of accepting a black box.
Use local or approved cloud models according to the data and the task.
Review the handling decisions Ardua AI governed and why they were made.
A failure worth catching
In a live exercise using sample data, a join inflated category totals by 14–71× while still naming the correct leader. EntailDB now has a targeted check for that exact aggregate-join pattern.

Ardua AI supports deployments in which protected information, policy decisions, and eligible model processing remain on infrastructure an institution controls. Local inference can reduce dependence on recurring per-use charges, while approved cloud models remain available when policy and economics justify them.

A focused engagement configures the products around your data, recurring questions, operating constraints, and success criteria. The result is evidence for whether to operate, expand, or stop.

Consulting
Ardua advises organizations on complex systems where technology, governance, operating practice, and public accountability have to work together.
Use-case selection, data classification, model-routing policy, deployment design, and production-readiness assessment.
Local-first and controlled-hybrid architectures, model infrastructure, governed capabilities, and integration planning.
Architecture, procurement support, implementation oversight, and modernization for IFMIS and related platforms.
Government platforms, central-bank payment systems, institutional reform, quality assurance, and capacity building.
Experience
The best technology decisions account for the institution that must operate, govern, and defend them.
