Headquartered in Mumbai, working with clients internationally. ## Common questions - **What does Deep Thought Consultech do?** Deep Thought Consultech (DTC) is an AI consulting and technology company that works with clients internationally from its headquarters in Mumbai. One team covers AI strategy, applied research and production engineering, so the people who scope an AI project are the people who build it, deploy it and hand it over. - **What AI services does DTC offer?** AI strategy and roadmaps, proofs of concept on your own data, and full builds of production systems: generative AI and private LLMs, AI agents and MCP servers, computer vision, NLP and speech, search and recommendation, and generative media. DTC also builds the enterprise systems AI has to live inside, such as ERP, booking engines and HRMS. - **Who does DTC work with?** Enterprises and public bodies in hospitality, defence and government, education and edtech, healthcare, retail, professional services and the non-profit sector, from organisations taking their first step with AI to teams that need a production system built. - **Can DTC deploy AI on our own servers, with no data leaving?** Yes, and it is a particular strength. DTC deploys open-weight models on your own hardware, including fully offline and air-gapped installations, so your data has nowhere to go. - **How does an engagement start, and how long does it take?** With a discovery call and no commitment. Engagements then take one of four shapes: a 2–4 week discovery sprint ending in a prioritised roadmap, a 4–12 week proof of concept on your real data, a 3–12 month full build and deployment, or an ongoing embedded AI team. - **How is DTC priced?** Each engagement is scoped and quoted after the discovery call, because cost depends on the problem, the data and where the system has to run. If AI is not the right answer, we will say so. - **Does DTC have its own products?** Yes, four, each deployable standalone and customised to your organisation: Communication Bot, a self-hosted email and communication agent; FileManager Agent, local search across your devices by content; Comment Insights, which makes guest and staff feedback searchable; and ProactiveGuard, AI for the cameras you already have. - **Can an AI assistant look DTC up directly?** Yes. DTC runs an MCP server at deepthoughtconsultech.com/mcp. Assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT can connect to it to search the site, compare the products against a problem, and send an enquiry. ## Services - **Generative AI & LLMs** — RAG pipelines, private LLM deployment, fine-tuning, vector database design and prompt architecture. - **Computer vision** — Face and object recognition, licence plate reading, perimeter monitoring, video enhancement and restoration. - **NLP & speech AI** — Voice agents, multilingual translation, sentiment analysis, summarisation, diarization, voice synthesis. - **AI agents & MCP** — Advanced agents that plan, call tools and act on real systems — well beyond retrieval. Multi-agent workflows in Langchain, n8n and Make, Model Context Protocol servers over your databases and APIs, and the judgement about when an agent genuinely beats a straight RAG pipeline and when it does not. - **Analytics & algorithms** — Recommendation engines, semantic and contextual search, topic modelling, custom model design. - **Generative media** — Text-to-image with ControlNet, video generation and modification, automated creative pipelines. ## Privacy and data security Most AI vendors require your data to travel to them. For a defence installation, a hospital, a law firm or a bank, that is not a trade they are permitted to make. For every other enterprise it means handing over contracts, customer records, pricing and internal know-how — and trusting somebody else's retention policy with your competitive position. Neither is necessary. - **The private AI box** — A self-contained machine installed in your own facility. The models, your data and every inference run on it. There is no account to create and no vendor to trust, because nothing leaves the box. - **Works with no internet at all** — Once installed it needs no external connection. That suits an air-gapped site, a remote clinic, a field office, or any facility where outbound traffic is simply not permitted. - **Private by architecture, not by policy** — A promise not to send your data anywhere can be broken by a config change. A system with nowhere to send it cannot. We build the second kind. - **Industry-leading open models** — The strongest open-weight models available, deployed on your hardware and yours to keep. No per-token billing, no vendor deprecating the model you built on, no licence renegotiation two years in. - **Sized to the hardware you have** — Models tuned to run on what is realistic for you, from a single GPU workstation to a rack. The enhancement toolkit runs on one GPU-equipped laptop. - **Yours to audit and to keep** — Your team gets the deployment, the documentation and the ability to inspect what the system does. We build it to be handed over, not to create a dependency. ## Enterprise IT AI rarely arrives on a clean site. It has to work inside an ERP that runs the business, a booking engine that takes the money, and a workforce system people clock into every morning. We have built all three from scratch, which is why we can put AI inside them. - **ERP for food service and fashion** — End-to-end logistics, inventory, production and supply chain for multi-outlet food businesses and fashion operations — the back office that has to reconcile before anything else works. - **HRMS and workforce systems** — Task and time management, attendance, analytics and reporting. Including facial-recognition attendance and reports staff can query by speaking rather than opening files. - **Travel and booking platforms** — Customer and agent booking engines, reservations and the on-site systems behind them — built and run at CTO level for a national travel operator, including satellite communications. - **Point of sale and consumer apps** — Websites, mobile apps and point-of-sale tied back to the same inventory and analytics, so the shop floor and the back office see one set of numbers. - **Integration with what you already run** — Most of the work is meeting legacy systems where they are. We integrate with the databases, APIs and installed software you are not going to replace. - **Analytics across the whole estate** — Reporting that spans the systems rather than sitting inside one of them, so a question about the business does not need three exports and a spreadsheet. ## Engagement models - **Discovery sprint** (2–4 weeks) — A focused diagnostic engagement. We assess your data, workflows and opportunities, then deliver a prioritised AI roadmap with effort and impact estimates. - **Proof of concept** (4–12 weeks) — Take one high-value use case and build a working prototype against your real data — enough to validate feasibility and secure internal buy-in. - **Full build & deployment** (3–12 months) — End-to-end delivery of a production AI system including integration, testing, deployment, documentation and handover to your team. - **Embedded AI team** (Ongoing) — We work as an extension of your organisation — an on-demand AI research and engineering capability without the cost of building one in-house. ## Industries served - Hospitality - Defence & government - Education & edtech - Healthcare - Retail - Professional services - Non-profit & social impact ## Products - [Communication Bot](https://deepthoughtconsultech.com/products/communication-bot) (Enterprise · Self-hosted) — A bring-your-own-identity email and communication agent.
