OptimaGPT - product overview
OptimaGPT is an on-premise AI server designed to bring the capabilities of LLMs securely within your own infrastructure.
What is a generative AI server?
A generative AI server is a dedicated hardware and software solution that allows you to run sophisticated Artificial Intelligence models, particularly Large Language Models (LLMs), directly on your own premises rather than relying on external cloud providers.
These powerful models are capable of generating new content – whether it’s human-like text, code, or creative assets – in response to a user’s prompt.
By hosting this capability locally, a generative AI server acts as your private AI “walled garden,” ensuring all processing, data, and interactions remain securely within your organisation’s control.

Prioritise data privacy & security
Businesses handling sensitive customer data, proprietary information, or classified data.
Navigate complex compliance regulations
Companies needing to adhere strictly to regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, PCI DSS, and other industry-specific mandates that demand data residency and control.
Seek cost predictability at scale
Enterprises with high volumes of AI usage looking to move away from unpredictable “pay-per-token” cloud costs towards a more stable, long-term investment.
Require maximum performance & control
Organisations that need lower latency for real-time applications and want full command over their AI’s uptime, reliability, and fine-tuning.
Are Parker Software customers
Businesses already using our award-winning products like WhosOn live chat or ThinkAutomation for workflow automation, or those with existing OpenAI API integrations looking for a secure, private alternative.
How much does it cost to deploy GPT on-premise?
Deploying a GPT or other LLM on-premises requires an upfront capital investment and/or ongoing usage fees, dependent on the provider.
OptimaGPT offers flexible licensing to suit your needs: choose a convenient yearly subscription for continuous flexible access, or make a one-off purchase to own your private AI server indefinitely.
In the context of deploying AI models like OptimaGPT, a “node” refers to an individual server that is part of a larger system or cluster.
All our licenses include 1 Node, providing the core power of OptimaGPT for truly private, on-premises generative AI.

How many nodes do I need for OptimaGPT?
The number of nodes you’d need for OptimaGPT is highly dependent on your specific requirements:
Size of the LLM(s) you're using
For less demanding use cases or smaller open-source models, you might be able to get by with a single, powerful node. For truly massive models, heavy concurrent user loads, or complex fine-tuning tasks, you would likely need a cluster of multiple nodes, each equipped with several high-end professional GPUs.
Concurrency and throughput
If you have thousands of concurrent live chat conversations with your AI, you’ll need more computational power (and thus potentially more nodes) to handle the volume and maintain fast response times.
Redundancy and high availability
For critical production systems, you’ll typically want more than one node to ensure redundancy and failover. If one node goes down, others can take over, preventing service disruption.
Budget and scalability
Your budget will often dictate the starting point. You might begin with one powerful node and scale out to multiple nodes as your needs and budget grow.
