Frequently asked questions
The most common questions about security, licensing, hardware, and process.
Can we use AI without our data leaving the building?
Yes. Chimera AI runs closed-circuit: the model and your organization’s data stay on your own servers, and chats, documents and code are never sent to an external cloud. In the strictest scenarios the deployment can be fully isolated from external networks (air-gap).
Is Chimera AI a subscription?
No. Chimera AI is built on an open-source stack and is installed as a permanent asset: it stays where it is deployed and remains your organization’s property. There is no dependency on an ongoing subscription to keep it running.
How long until it is live?
The first system is typically live in 2 months. The timeline depends on scope: a narrow PHASE-0 pilot produces evidence sooner, while a broad, multi-module deployment proceeds in stages. A firm schedule is given after the Architecture Pre-Analysis, together with the scope.
