A guide by Distilled Consulting Services

Set up your own private AI at home.

Distilled Consulting Services created this step-by-step guide from what we learned developing our own working private AI system, which we call Jexi. We are giving 20 people a free copy.

The free code is not public. You apply, we read your answers, and we email the people we choose. Or you can buy the guide today for A$9.99.

Why people want this

Why do this yourself?

01

You want to keep your own stuff private

Most AI tools send what you type to a company's computers. Some people would rather keep their notes and plans at home.

02

It is hard to know where to start

There is a lot of advice online and most of it does not fit together. The guide is one path that we have actually walked.

03

You want something useful for you

Instead of adapting to another AI tool, you can build something around the way you work and what you actually want help with.

The guide

What's in the guide

What you need

A simple list of the parts. What they cost. What each one is for. No guessing.

Step-by-step setup

The whole setup, in order, with screenshots. Follow it from start to finish.

Keeping it on your own network

How to set it up so your chats stay on the computer in your home.

Giving it a memory

How to let your AI remember your notes, projects and the things you tell it.

When things go wrong

The problems we hit, and what we did to fix them. This part saves the most time.

Honest notes

What worked well, what still does not, and where AI gets things wrong.

We have already done the trial and error. The guide gives you one clear path instead of another hundred options.

Being honest: there are some technical steps. You will install software and change a few settings. If you can follow written instructions carefully, you can do it. If you would rather not do it alone, we can help.

What you'll need

An Apple Silicon Mac (M1 or newer) with at least 16GB RAM and 60GB free storage. 24GB RAM is recommended.

The guide was built and tested on a Mac Mini M4 with 24GB RAM running macOS 26.x. Other Apple Silicon Macs should also be suitable, but have not been specifically tested.

Behind the guide

The working system behind the guide

The guide is based on a working private AI system developed by Distilled Consulting Services. It runs from local hardware and can be accessed through a normal browser on a phone, laptop or tablet. The guide shares what we learned while developing and testing it.

The same chat on any screen

Phone, laptop or tablet, it is the same helper, running on your own machine. There is no app to install and nothing to sign up for.

This website offers the guide, not the private AI system. The guide shares what Distilled Consulting Services learned so that you can build your own version.

The system was developed by Distilled Consulting Services around a simple idea: powerful technology does not need to be complicated.

Want help making AI useful?

Not everyone wants to build it themselves. Distilled Consulting Services helps people and businesses work out where AI will genuinely help, what they actually need and the simplest way to put it to work.

01

Work it out together

We help you understand what will actually be useful and what you can ignore.

02

Help with the setup

We help you get it working and show you how to use it day to day.

03

Build something around you

If you need more than the standard setup, we start with the problem and work out the simplest practical solution.

AI is useful, but it is not perfect. It makes mistakes and it needs a person checking its work. We will always tell you what it can and cannot do. Visit Distilled Consulting Services.
