Fine-tuning on sensitive data creates an impossible choice: sacrifice competitive advantage by sharing data with a model provider, or forgo AI's potential. Our service eliminates this risk.

The Fine-Tuning Dilemma: Unlock AI Value Without Exposing Your Crown Jewels
Securely adapt foundation models on your proprietary data within hardware-secured enclaves.
We deploy and manage Intel SGX or AMD SEV Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) where your proprietary data and the resulting fine-tuned model weights are cryptographically shielded from the host OS, cloud provider, and even our own engineers.
- Protect IP & Compliance: Train models on PII, financial records, or trade secrets while meeting GDPR and HIPAA data-in-use requirements.
- Maintain Model Sovereignty: The final, tuned model is your asset alone, never exposed outside the secure enclave.
- Leverage State-of-the-Art: Fine-tune models like Llama 3, GPT-4, or Claude on your domain-specific corpus with dramatically reduced hallucination.
- Full Pipeline Security: From data ingestion to model serving, the entire workflow occurs within attested, hardware-rooted enclaves. Learn more about our broader approach to Confidential Computing for AI Workloads.
Move from prototype to production in weeks, not months, with a guaranteed security architecture. This foundational security enables other advanced paradigms, such as building Federated Learning Systems or deploying AI Model Confidentiality for Regulatory Compliance.
Business Outcomes: From Risk Mitigation to Competitive Moats
Our TEE-enabled fine-tuning services deliver measurable business advantages, transforming a compliance requirement into a strategic asset. Move beyond basic data protection to unlock new revenue streams and defend your core IP.
Regulatory Compliance & Risk Mitigation
Achieve and demonstrate compliance with stringent data-in-use protection mandates under GDPR, HIPAA, and the EU AI Act. Our hardware-based enclaves provide the technical controls for data residency and algorithmic transparency audits, significantly reducing legal and financial exposure.
IP Protection & Competitive Moats
Your fine-tuned model weights—a multi-million dollar asset—are never exposed to the cloud provider or model host. This creates a defensible technical moat, preventing competitors from replicating your proprietary AI capabilities and safeguarding your R&D investment.
Faster, De-Risked AI Adoption
Accelerate AI projects stalled by legal and security reviews. Our proven enclave architecture and attestation protocols provide the security guarantees needed for internal sign-off, reducing time-to-market for AI-powered features by weeks or months.
Enhanced Customer Trust & Brand Equity
Transparently communicate the use of confidential computing for customer data. This demonstrable commitment to privacy builds superior trust in regulated sectors like finance and healthcare, becoming a key differentiator in procurement decisions.
Future-Proofed AI Infrastructure
Build on a foundation designed for evolving threats and regulations. Our integration with cross-cloud TEE standards (AWS Nitro, Azure CVMs) ensures your confidential AI workloads are portable and resilient, protecting long-term investments.

Phase 2: Enclave Environment Setup | 1-2 Weeks | Provisioned TEE cluster (e.g., Intel SGX, AMD SEV), attested base images, secure CI/CD pipeline | Approve infrastructure design, provide encryption keys |
Phase 3: Confidential Data Pipeline Integration | 2-3 Weeks | Encrypted data loaders, in-enclave preprocessing, synthetic data validation suite | Supply sanitized sample datasets, validate preprocessing logic |
Phase 4: Secure Fine-Tuning Execution | 2-4 Weeks | Fine-tuned model weights (encrypted), training performance metrics, fairness/bias report | Review intermediate checkpoints, approve tuning objectives |
Phase 5: Production Deployment & Attestation | 1-2 Weeks | Deployed model API within enclave, automated attestation client, load testing results | User acceptance testing (UAT), final security sign-off |
Phase 6: Ongoing Monitoring & Support | Ongoing | 99.9% uptime SLA, security patch management, performance drift dashboards | Monthly review calls, incident response coordination |
Total Time to Secure Production | 7-13 Weeks | Fully operational, confidential AI model endpoint | Collaborative partnership from start to finish |
Industry Applications: Where Confidential Fine-Tuning is Critical
Fine-tuning foundation models on sensitive internal data is a strategic necessity. Our TEE-enabled services ensure this process never becomes a liability, protecting your most valuable assets—your data and the resulting proprietary models—from exposure to infrastructure providers, cloud vendors, or internal threats.
Enabling Efficiency, Speed & Accuracy
Intelligent Analysis, Decision & Execution
We build AI systems for teams that need search across company data, workflow automation across tools, or AI features inside products and internal software.
Talk to Us
Search across company data
Give teams answers from docs, tickets, runbooks, and product data with sources and permissions.
Useful when people spend too long searching or get different answers from different systems.

Automate internal workflows
Use AI to route work, draft outputs, trigger actions, and keep approvals and logs in place.
Useful when repetitive work moves across multiple tools and teams.

Add AI to products and internal tools
Build assistants, guided actions, or decision support into the software your team or customers already use.
Useful when AI needs to be part of the product, not a separate tool.
Frequently Asked Questions on TEE-Enabled Fine-Tuning
Get clear, technical answers on how we securely adapt foundation models like Llama 3.1 or GPT-4 within hardware enclaves to protect your proprietary data and model weights.
From kickoff to production deployment, a standard project takes 4-6 weeks. This includes 1 week for environment provisioning and attestation setup, 2-3 weeks for data preparation and iterative fine-tuning within the enclave, and 1-2 weeks for integration testing and security validation. For complex models or large datasets (>1TB), timelines extend to 8-10 weeks. We provide a detailed Gantt chart during scoping.
