A product-first AI company for regulated industries.
Machplace LLC builds privacy-first AI products deployed on dedicated NVIDIA infrastructure. We ship software you subscribe to — not hours you bill against.
The thesis.
The major cloud AI providers will never solve the privacy problem because their business depends on aggregating customer data. So we build the alternative.
Hardware where your data needs to be
Veqa deploys on dedicated NVIDIA GPUs at the customer's facility under a managed subscription. Vigilium runs on dedicated Machplace infrastructure in a U.S. facility. Neither product sends data to third-party AI vendors.
Open-source models, no vendor lock-in
We build on open-weight Llama, Qwen, Whisper, and the NVIDIA Nemotron family. Customers can audit, fork, or replace any model in the stack.
Compliance as a design constraint, not a checkbox
HIPAA, SOC 2, PCI DSS, attorney-client privilege, and data-residency rules informed the architecture from day one. Compliance posture is built in, not bolted on.
Two products today.
Both deploy on the same NVIDIA stack and the same compliance posture — separate problem spaces, shared infrastructure thesis.
Veqa
Multilingual Voice AI agents that replace IVR menus. Handle interruptions naturally, never lose context, deployed on dedicated NVIDIA GPUs at your facility.

AI-powered continuous security monitoring with plain-English reports and an A–F grade. Built for non-technical business owners.
Visit vigilium.aiWe ship products, not engagements.
Machplace is intentionally structured as a product company, not a consulting or services firm. Every architectural decision is in service of building software that scales across customers without bespoke labor for each one.
- We ship productized software with documented APIs and versioned releases — not bespoke engagements.
- Our products are deployed identically across customers; we don't rebuild the wheel per client.
- Pricing is tier-based, not hourly. There are no "statements of work".
- Customer support is structured against published SLAs, not staffed by the people who wrote the code.
