For MSPs & IT service providers

Your clients are asking about AI. Say yes.

Law firms, advisories and clinics trust you with their infrastructure — and now they're asking you about AI. PrivateBuilds is your delivery team behind the scenes: you keep the relationship, we build the system, and your client's data is never sent to a public AI service.

The opportunity

Private AI is an infrastructure sale — and you own the infrastructure relationship.

Cloud AI subscriptions cut MSPs out of the value chain. On-premise AI puts you back at the center: a server in the client's rack, on the network you manage, under the security policies you enforce.

You bring the trust

The client relationship, the environment knowledge, the seat at the table when they ask "should we do this?" — that's yours, and it stays yours. We never approach your clients directly.

We bring the delivery

Model selection, document pipelines, workflow integration, evaluation and training — the specialist AI engineering that doesn't make sense for most MSPs to build in-house for a handful of deployments a year.

The client gets both

A system on hardware they own, inside a network you manage, delivered by specialists — with ongoing care split sensibly: you handle infrastructure, we handle the AI layer.

How partnership works

Two ways to work with us

Model A

Referral

You introduce, we deliver under our own name, you receive a referral share on the pilot, deployment and care plan. Lightest lift — one introduction email.

  • Referral fee on every stage of the engagement
  • You stay informed at every milestone
  • Infrastructure work (rack, network, backup) stays billable to you
Model B

White-label

The engagement runs under your brand. We deliver as your AI team — your proposal, your paper, your client meeting with our engineer alongside. You set the margin.

  • Your brand on the proposal and the deliverables
  • Joint scoping and client calls, engineer included
  • Ongoing care plan split: your infra layer, our AI layer

A commitment worth stating plainly: your client remains your client. Every partner agreement includes a non-solicitation clause — we will not approach, quote or contract your clients directly, during the partnership or after it.

Built to slot into your practice

What your engineers will want to know

Standard, inspectable stack

Open-weight models, standard Linux server administration, containerized services, documented ports and dependencies. Your team can audit everything — nothing is a black box you're asked to vouch for blind.

Your policies apply

The AI server is just another host in the environment you manage: your patching cadence, your backup regime, your monitoring, your access policies. We design to fit them, not around them.

Clean handover, real runbooks

Complete documentation written for working sysadmins. If the partnership ends, you and the client keep everything and the system keeps running. See our security architecture for the full model.

Start with one client, one pilot.

Pick the one client who's been asking about AI. We'll scope a pilot together — you'll see exactly how we work before putting your name near anything.
