Deployment modes

Choose where your data actually lives.

Four ways to deploy AI2BI Hub — same product, different boundary. Switch any time. Your AI credits and saved queries stay with your account, not with the mode.

Cloud

Default

Data stored in the AI2BI cloud (S3, encrypted at rest). Every feature enabled.

Available on every plan

Included in every account — no extra setup needed.

What you get

  • Files stored in AWS S3

    Encrypted at rest with AWS-managed keys. Customer-Managed Keys (CMEK) available on Pro+ plans.

  • Works across devices

    Sign in from any browser or device and see the same files + saved queries.

  • All features enabled

    Chat, Auto-dashboard, Anomaly scan, NL chart builder, Schema editor — everything.

  • Fastest startup

    No local engine to boot. First query hits Athena or a warm Lambda in ~1–2s.

Heads up

  • Data travels to our cloud

    Raw rows are stored in S3 and queried server-side. If that’s a concern for your data, see Browser-Private.

Browser-Private

No install

Files live in this browser tab only. Raw rows never leave your machine.

Available on every plan

Switch any time from Settings → Privacy mode.

What you get

  • Files stay in this browser on your laptop

    Your CSVs are saved inside this browser tab. They are not uploaded to our servers and are not synced to other devices.

  • No install required

    A small analytics engine loads into the browser the first time you use the mode (~8 MB). After that it runs instantly on every visit.

  • AI billing unchanged

    Chat still spends tokens. Only your question + column names go to our servers for the AI reply — the actual rows never leave your machine.

Heads up

  • Anomaly scan disabled

    It needs server-side access to your rows, which is the opposite of this mode. Dashboards, manual charts, and chat all work fine.

  • Tied to this device + browser

    Your data doesn’t follow you if you sign in from another laptop or clear your browser storage.

Enterprise Agent

On-premises agent runs on your Windows / Mac / Linux machine. Nothing leaves your device.

Register for early bird

We’ll email you when on-premises rollout opens up.

What you get

  • Installer runs locally

    Small signed agent runs as a background service. Data files live wherever you choose on your disk.

  • No cloud dependency for data

    Only a periodic subscription heartbeat leaves your network. Every query, every LLM call runs against the local agent.

  • Enterprise features

    SSO (SAML / OIDC), custom retention, SOC 2 evidence pack.

Heads up

  • Currently in private preview

    Register for early bird below and we’ll reach out with a timeline.

MCP Server

Use AI2BI Hub directly from Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, or any MCP-aware AI tool. Your data stays where it is — the AI client connects to AI2BI as a tool.

Register for early bird

Be first in line when the MCP server opens up.

What you get

  • No new UI to learn

    Ask questions inside Claude Desktop / ChatGPT / Cursor. The MCP server exposes "ask", "query", "list_files" etc. as tools the AI can call on your behalf.

  • Same backend, new front door

    Auth via your AI2BI session, results streamed back into the LLM client. Your existing tier + credit balance applies.

  • Healthcare path requires Claude Enterprise

    For T4 (PHI) tenants, MCP needs admin opt-in plus your own BAA with Anthropic / OpenAI Enterprise. We don’t enable it by default for healthcare accounts.

Heads up

  • Currently in roadmap

    We’re building this once Phase D (upload scanner) is rolled to all products. Watch the Trust page for the launch date.
