Self-hosted deployments are available under the Enterprise plan. Contact us to get started.
Why Self-Host?
Data Sovereignty
Zero data leaves. Every embedding, every query, every log stays inside your network boundary.
Compliance Ready
Meet GDPR, HIPAA, SOC 2, SOX, IRS 1075, CJIS, PCI, IATF, and FERPA requirements. Refusals and citations make every answer auditable.
Air-Gapped Deployment
Run completely offline with Ollama or your own LLM endpoint. No internet connection required.
Bring Your Own Model (BYOM)
Plug in your fine-tuned, hosted, or local LLM. OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Ollama, or a custom endpoint.
SSO + RBAC + User Groups
SAML/OIDC SSO, role-based access control, and user groups that scope what each team can see and ask.
White-Labeling
Remove Gurubase branding. Apply your own logo, colors, and domain across the widget and admin surfaces.
Built for Regulated Industries
Different sectors carry different rules. Self-hosted Gurubase is the path when:- Banking & Financial Services: SOX-aligned audit trails, refusals tied to policy, PII masking on every answer.
- Government & Public Sector: Air-gapped or on-prem for IRS 1075, CJIS, and FedRAMP-style requirements.
- Healthcare: HIPAA-aware deployment with audit logs and clinical-scope refusal posture.
- Manufacturing: IATF / ISO documentation grounded with citations; integration with PLC, MES, and ERP behind your firewall.
- Retail: PCI-conscious answers from order, inventory, and policy systems.
- Education: FERPA-aligned answers from student records, policies, and academic documentation.
