Ruthless Prioritization
We assess where AI will pay off in your workflows, and just as importantly where it won't. You get a ranked roadmap tied to real cost and real risk, not a vendor's wish list.
Gammaxon provides AI focused Forward-Deployed Engineers (FDE) as members of your team, to help you decide what to build, what to buy, and what to run in-house. FDEs then build the production workloads side-by-side your engineers. This includes AI deployments that live entirely on your own hardware, disconnected from the internet.
Solving problems is our passion · We use what we recommend
Most organizations don't have an AI problem, they have business opportunities waiting to be unlocked. We work side-by-side with your team, in your systems, to design solutions that will solve your problems and make your business more profitable, more streamlined, and more awesome.
We assess where AI will pay off in your workflows, and just as importantly where it won't. You get a ranked roadmap tied to real cost and real risk, not a vendor's wish list.
Model selection and routing, retrieval and data pipelines, evaluation harnesses, guardrails, observability, cost controls and more. We outline these concretely, so that your engineers can effectively build against it.
Forward-Deployed means exactly that, our engineers sit with your team and ship production workloads together, so the capability stays in your organization and lives on forever.
Prompt-injection and data-exfiltration threat modeling, tenant isolation, audit trails, policy enforcement, and more are designed in from the start by a team whose day job used to be adversary tradecraft.
Token economics, caching strategy, model right-sizing, and the build-versus-buy math are included in our analysis. We know when moving a workload onto your own hardware pays for itself.
Tool design, evaluation, and failure containment for agents that touch production. We build and operate these ourselves everyday, so the advice comes from running them, not theorizing about them.
That's the normal starting point. You will find that a short conversation with our team, will usually clarify more than weeks of research.
Metered API calls to someone else's models are a permanent operating expense and a permanent dependency. We design and stand up on-premise AI so your workloads run on hardware you control. This means there is no per-token meter, no data leaving your network, and full function when the internet is gone.
Trade a variable per-token bill for capital hardware you already know how to budget for.
Air-gapped operation. Inference, retrieval, and agent workflows keep running with zero external calls.
We size GPU and memory to your actual workload, from a single workstation to a rack.
Regulated, classified, and contractually restricted data stays inside your boundary by construction.
Illustrative comparison of deployment models. Actual savings depend on workload, utilization, and hardware. We model yours before you buy anything.
A lightweight managed sensor you install on a box you already own. It watches which ports actually get probed, rebinds itself to the hottest ones, and answers with infrastructure that looks real and is entirely fake. An anomaly score is a guess. A hit on a decoy credential is an answer.
AWS, GCP, and Azure instance-metadata endpoints. This is the first thing an SSRF or a compromised workload reaches for.
A convincing API-server surface. Enumeration attempts against it are unambiguous, because nothing in your cluster should be knocking here.
A fake repo host seeded with zero-permission AWS canary keys. The keys grant nothing; using one tells us exactly who took the bait.
Answers initialize and tools/list like a real MCP server,
exposes a get_ci_secrets leak point, and plants a per-session semantic
canary, purpose-built to catch agentic attackers probing your tooling.
Decoy apps that chain into the IMDS persona and surface open-redirect bounce, DNS rebinding, and XXE attempts.
Model-driven responses on unclassified ports for deeper engagement. Kill-switched and cost-capped; ships disabled until you turn it on.
One command on macOS or Linux. Runs as a LaunchAgent or systemd unit.
The sensor checks in every 30 seconds and picks up runtime config from the web app.
Toggle which decoys are live. Passive observation auto-rebinds to the ports actually being probed.
Notifications, integrations, and OCSF 1.3.0 export straight into Splunk, Elastic, or Sentinel.
Canary credentials are non-privileged and exist only for detection. RipTide detects and alerts; it does not take automated destructive action against attacker infrastructure.
The same RipTide agent that runs your decoys will, when you opt in, walk your RFC1918 space and fingerprint what answers. You get a live internal asset inventory, the capability you'd normally buy a separate discovery platform for, as a side effect of a sensor you already deployed.
Internal discovery is deliberately separate from external scanning. Turning it on never relaxes the safety controls that keep external scans off private and link-local targets.

It starts with a scoping conversation, not a proposal. From there we typically run a focused assessment of where AI pays off in your workflows, deliver a reference design your engineers can build against, then embed to ship the first production workloads with your team. The goal is that the capability stays with you after we leave.
No. We work inside your environment and your boundary. For regulated, classified, or contractually restricted data, the on-premise deployment model exists specifically so nothing has to leave. Inference, retrieval, and agent workflows all run on hardware you control.
They're zero-permission by design. The credentials grant no access to anything. Their only function is to fire a high-confidence alert the moment someone tries to use one.
Yes. Self-hosted and co-managed deployment is supported, and our on-premise AI practice exists specifically to make disconnected operation practical. Talk to us about your environment.
Tell us where you are with AI and what you're trying to build. We read every message and get back to you personally, usually within one business day.
