Why I put AI inside the company, not in the cloud

The companies that need AI the most have a legitimate fear: sending their data outside.

Why I put AI inside the company, not in the cloud

The idea behind Broco was born out of stubbornness. Everyone was throwing AI into the cloud. But the companies that need it most have a legitimate fear: sending their data outside. Operational data is strategic.

So I took the harder path. Make AI run inside the company, on-prem and at the edge, with a local model, automating processes and talking to the ERP, CRM and sensors, without the data ever leaving the building.

Today Broco is an ecosystem: BrocoEngine, an agentic engine with 27 native skills that orchestrates models, tools and memory with a local LLM; BrocoBot, the customer service and sales chatbot that answers on our own site; the Broco PC I, Brazilian-made hardware to run all of it inside the company; and brocoAds, which builds the entire marketing structure and delivers results, not like an agency, already running with real clients.

It's not paranoia on my part. Research shows a meaningful share of what employees paste into public AI tools is confidential data, and regulation is tightening: the EU AI Act already brings obligations for high-risk systems starting in 2026. Anyone who takes data seriously is bringing AI back in-house, and Deloitte is already tracking the rush toward on-prem, agentic AI inside the enterprise.

The lesson I take from this: hard technology isn't the bottleneck. Trust is. You don't sell the model. You sell the peace of mind that the data never leaked and the number went up.
