What You Get

Everything a technical decision-maker needs to scope, budget, and defend a private AI deployment to a security-conscious board — without a consulting retainer.

50-Page Practitioner Playbook

Private vs cloud AI trade-offs, hardware sizing (GPU / CPU / memory / storage), model selection, retrieval pipelines, guardrails, rollout phases.

10 Architecture Templates

Editable reference diagrams: single-node inference, multi-GPU RAG, fine-tune pipelines, on-prem chat with SSO, hybrid cloud burst, CMMC-aligned enclave, HIPAA ePHI isolation, airgap, agentic workflows, audit logging.

Vendor Evaluation Matrix

45 weighted criteria scored against the top private-AI stacks (Ollama, vLLM, NVIDIA NIM, Llama.cpp, RunPod, on-prem H100, NVIDIA DGX Spark). CMMC-compliant procurement language included.

Bonus: 30-Min LIVE Fleet Tour With Craig ($250 value)

Live virtual walk of our ai5 / ai7 / Dell / DGX nodes running real inference, RAG, and fine-tune workloads — hosted by Craig Petronella himself. Bring your hard questions; bundled free with every Starter Kit.

Questions We Get Asked

Is this just a PDF, or do I get working templates?
Both. The 50-page PDF is the playbook. The 10 architecture templates are editable source files (Draw.io / PNG / Markdown). The vendor matrix is a live spreadsheet you can reweight for your environment.
What does the bonus fleet tour actually include?
A 30-minute live screen-share of our production AI lab — the same hardware we use for client prototypes. You see inference latency, RAG retrieval, cost per token, and we answer your specific stack questions.
How is this different from the free AI guide on your site?
The free guide is a 22-page primer. The Starter Kit is a 50-page implementation playbook plus 10 templates plus the vendor matrix plus the live tour — built for teams who are past "should we" and into "how do we".
Do you offer a refund if it isn't a fit?
Yes. 30-day money-back guarantee, no questions. Email sales@petronellatech.com with your order ID.
Can we upgrade to a full engagement?
Absolutely. The $997 credits toward our $7,500 AI Readiness Assessment or our $50,000 Private AI Prototype. Ask during the fleet tour.
