KxAI runs in the cloud.
It can also run in yours.
KxAI is a data and AI governance layer. It indexes your datasets, connects to third-party sources, stores small data, and controls how AI agents interact with it all. Run it in the cloud alongside Koordinates, or deploy it to your own infrastructure as a standalone licence.
Every Koordinates site includes KxAI
Your datasets are automatically indexed. AI governance controls are available immediately. KxAI sees everything in your Koordinates catalogue — plus any third-party sources you connect. Nothing to deploy. Nothing to manage.
Auto-indexed
Your Koordinates datasets are indexed on upload
Connect sources
Third-party data sources connected from the dashboard
Governed
AI access policies and audit trail from day one
Zero ops
Auto-scaling cloud tenancy. Nothing to manage
Need data and AI governance inside your own perimeter?
KxAI is available as a standalone on-premises licence for organisations that need to index and govern data that can't leave their network — or that need AI governance running under their own compliance framework.
Index your data wherever it lives
Point KxAI at your internal file shares, databases, object storage, or third-party APIs. It builds a governance catalogue without moving data. No need to publish through Koordinates.
Store small data locally
Reference datasets, lookup tables, configuration layers, boundaries — the kind of data that supports governance decisions but doesn't need a full data platform behind it.
AI governance in your perimeter
MCP connection management, access policies, audit trail, token lifecycle — all running on your infrastructure under your compliance framework.
The enterprise play
Run Koordinates as your cloud data platform and KxAI on-prem as your governance layer. KxAI indexes both your Koordinates cloud data and your internal sources from a single dashboard.
One governance view across cloud-published and internal data. One audit trail. One set of AI access policies.

Three options for on-prem
We ship KxAI as a container image. You run it where your security requirements dictate.
Kubernetes
Helm chart provided. Horizontal scaling. Health checks and liveness probes included. Works with EKS, AKS, GKE, or on-prem K8s.
Virtual Machine
OVA or Docker Compose deployment. Single-node or multi-node. Suitable for environments without container orchestration.
Air-Gapped
Offline installation package. No internet connectivity required. Manual update process with signed release bundles.
Your responsibilities
The cloud version has zero operational responsibility. Here's what the on-prem licence adds to your team's plate.
Need governance
behind your firewall?
KxAI on-prem is for organisations that need to index and govern data that can't leave their network — or that need AI governance under their own compliance framework. Talk to us and we'll tell you honestly which mode you need.
