Running an AI pilot project — what the service covers, how dgm delivers it through osFoundry, and how to book a first call.

dgm is an independent integration partner for osFoundry — it is not affiliated with the maker of osFoundry (OS LLC) and has not yet completed any integration project for a client.

osFoundry is a model-agnostic AI orchestration platform built on the bring-your-own-key (BYOK) principle: usage-based pricing with no per-user fee, local-first operation, and the option to self-host, with a choice of data region (the United States, the European Union or Japan) or running it in your own private cloud.

What this service would cover

This service would include running a narrow pilot with a clear success criterion and real data, so you can decide objectively whether to scale. dgm works in stages and transparently, so you see value early rather than waiting for one big launch.

How dgm works

dgm is an independent partner that specialises in osFoundry, in the way a leading partner implements Salesforce or AWS. It starts from your concrete problem, picks the use case with the best value-to-effort ratio, and builds on your own data. The pricing stays simple: a one-time initial consultation and a monthly integration, with no per-user fee.

Data and sovereignty

osFoundry lets you pin your data region to the United States, the European Union or Japan, supports local-first inference on your own device, and lets you self-host it in your own AWS, Azure or Google Cloud account (BYO Cloud). For a Nigerian business, the honest position is that no major cloud provider runs a full region inside Nigeria — AWS’s nearest region is Cape Town (af-south-1), Azure and Oracle are nearest in Johannesburg, and Google Cloud has no African region at all — so a managed region means your data sits outside the country. If you want data on Nigerian soil, you can self-host in a Nigerian data centre such as Equinix (formerly MainOne) or Rack Centre in Lagos, or run local-first. Remember that the real question is jurisdiction, not just geography: the United States CLOUD Act can compel a US-owned provider to hand over data it controls wherever it is physically stored, so self-hosting or running local-first is what removes that exposure for your most sensitive work.

Where dgm fits in

dgm is an independent integration partner that helps organisations in Nigeria adopt the osFoundry platform — from identifying the first practical use case, to configuration, to connecting AI to the systems you already run. This is a proposed service: dgm has not yet completed an integration project for any client, so everything described above is a proposal, not a proven result. dgm works separately from the maker of osFoundry (OS LLC) and has not yet completed an integration project for any client, so everything described above is a proposed service, not a delivered result. If you would like to weigh a practical first step, dgm is glad to look at it with you. Book an introductory call with dgm.
