The control plane for your AI.
apertus.ai is the control plane between your AI sources and everyone who uses them: employees, applications and agents. It brings every model together behind a single endpoint, creating the foundation to roll out AI across your company securely, at scale and without depending on US providers. GDPR-compliant and free of lock-in.
Does any of this sound familiar?
Most companies come to us when AI has grown faster inside the organisation than the structure around it.
Nobody knows what AI actually costs. Invoices arrive from several providers and none of them map to a team or a project.
API keys are everywhere. In scripts, tools and projects. Who has access to which model is close to impossible to answer.
The data protection question stays open. Which data ends up with which provider cannot be answered with confidence.
Every rollout starts from scratch. Because each application is wired to one provider, scaling means building another integration every time.
What that looks like in practice: connect models, issue keys, track usage and cost in real time.
What the control plane actually does
Three building blocks, one goal: a solid foundation for rolling out AI across the company.
Visibility & cost control
Every request runs through one point. For the first time you can see what AI really costs and what it is spent on.
- Requests, tokens and cost per model, team and application
- Real-time reporting instead of a bundled invoice at month end
- Budgets and limits before the cost becomes a surprise
No US dependency
Run European, open and local models in production without tying yourself to a US provider.
- One consistent way to reach every connected model
- Switch models without touching your applications
- Set up GDPR-compliant and documented end to end
Governance & rollout
Who is allowed to do what, with which data? Access is granted centrally and can be revoked at any time.
- Permissions per user, application and agent
- Distribute models to specific teams and applications
- Traceable for audit, internal review and data protection
The control plane creates the foundation to roll out AI across your company constructively, at scale and securely. Without making yourself dependent on individual US providers.
How the rollout works
No big-bang project. We start small and scale once it holds.
Take stock
Together we look at which models, tools and applications are already in use and where things currently break down.
Connect the first application
One existing application starts running through the control plane. From that point usage, cost and access are visible and controllable.
Roll out across the company
More teams, applications and agents follow. Permissions, budgets and model choice stay centrally in your hands.
Data protection to European standards, by design rather than as an afterthought.
European, open and local models through one single, consistent interface.
Combine models freely and switch at any time, your applications stay untouched.
The entire control plane can run inside your own environment if you want it to.
What we get asked most
The questions that come up most often before a first call.
—Do we have to rebuild our applications?
No. The control plane brings your different AI sources together behind one endpoint. From there you distribute and govern models across the company. For your applications, usually only the endpoint changes, not the code.
—We already have contracts with AI providers.
Keep using them. The control plane sits in front and consolidates access. You decide which models run behind it and can add or switch at any time.
—Can we run this locally?
Yes. The entire control plane can be operated on-premise in your own infrastructure.
—Can we connect local models?
Yes. We also support the managed operation of local models and roll them out across the company through the same endpoint.
—Where does our data run?
On European infrastructure and GDPR-compliant. Which data reaches which model is defined by your rules instead of being left to each individual integration.
—What does it cost?
We can be precise once we know your case. In our experience costs tend to go down rather than up, because you can pick the optimal model for each use case instead of routing everything through one expensive model.
