Your AI engine.
On your hardware. On your terms.
Harness Machina is the open-source AI harness for organizations that can't send all their data to the cloud. Deploy RAG, multi-model orchestration and agentic workflows inside your perimeter — on hardware you own, certified by partners you trust.
Most AI tooling assumes your data can go to the cloud.
For governments, banks, hospitals and defense organizations — it can't. Regulations, sovereignty, classified data, audit requirements: the cloud API stack simply isn't an option. So they get left behind, or they ship insecure point-solutions and pray.
Data residency
Sensitive data never leaves your infrastructure — full stop.
Multi-model freedom
Mix local models with selective external APIs, per workload.
Auditable & open
Open source, inspectable, and aligned with your compliance team.
Harness · Hardware · Certified partners
Three layers, fully open, fully on your turf.
The Harness
We build and maintain the Harness Machina software — model orchestration, RAG, agents, tool-use, evals and observability. Open source, free, yours to inspect and extend.
Your hardware
Buy hardware that matches our reference specification — from a single workstation to a multi-node rack. Run as much capacity as your workloads need.
Certified install
Hire a certified partner to install, harden and operate it. Start with GreenCo or OrangeCo.
Everything you need to run AI inside the perimeter.
RAG, built-in
Document ingestion, chunking, embeddings, vector search and re-ranking — all local by default.
Multi-model
Llama, Qwen, Mistral, DeepSeek, Gemma — plus optional API providers behind allow-lists.
Hybrid mode
Per-workload policy: full local, hybrid, or selective API egress with redaction.
Agents & tools
Tool-use, MCP, sub-agents, scheduled jobs — same building blocks as the modern cloud stacks.
Air-gap ready
Designed to run with zero outbound connectivity. Update via signed offline bundles.
Audit & evals
Every prompt, retrieval and tool call logged to your SIEM. Built-in eval harness.
Identity & RBAC
SSO, SAML, OIDC. Role-scoped models, corpora and tools per team.
Open source
Apache 2.0. No paywall, no telemetry, no vendor lock-in.
The best open-weight models, all running inside your perimeter.
Mix and match the latest open-weight models per workload — 100% local, no vendor lock-in, no per-token fees. Swap a model with one config line.
The default workhorse. Strong general reasoning, instruction following and tool-use across 8 languages — the safe pick when you don’t know which model you need yet.
Best multilingual coverage — Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese and Arabic at near-native quality. The right call for LatAm, APAC and MENA deployments.
Frontier-tier chain-of-thought reasoning, math and code. Use for agentic workflows, complex analysis and anything that benefits from an explicit thinking trace.
EU-built and EU-hosted-friendly. 128K context, excellent function calling — the natural pick for European regulated industries and GDPR-sensitive workloads.
Documents, screenshots, charts, receipts, OCR-heavy pipelines. Reads tables and forms reliably — perfect for back-office automation and intake.
Lightweight but capable. Fits on a single GPU and runs fast — ideal for edge nodes, RAG retrievers and high-QPS classification or routing workloads.
The retrieval layer of the local RAG store. Multilingual, multi-granularity (sentence, passage, document) — the default backbone for semantic search.
Speech-to-text for voice agents, meeting transcription and call-center analytics. 99 languages, robust to accents, runs on a single GPU.
+ DBRX, Phi-4, Command-R+, Llama 3.2-Vision and your own fine-tunes. Bring any GGUF / safetensors checkpoint.
Installed and operated by people you can vet.
Harness Machina is free. Certified partners handle installation, hardening, operations and ongoing support — under contracts that fit your jurisdiction.
Hardware procurement, install and 24/7 operations for regulated industries across LatAm.
Government and defense-grade deployments, air-gapped installs and compliance support.
Built for the organizations the cloud forgot.
Government
Citizen services, internal knowledge, classified workflows — fully on-prem.
Finance
Research, compliance, KYC and ops automation under strict data residency rules.
Healthcare
Clinical notes, RAG over patient records, regulatory-grade audit trails.
Defense
Air-gapped agentic systems, multi-classification segregation, signed update channels.
Inspectable. Forkable. Yours.
Harness Machina is released under the Apache 2.0 license. No usage limits, no telemetry, no “enterprise tier” gating the parts you actually need. We make money through certifications, training and partner support — not by holding your AI hostage.
Run AI where your data lives.
