Self-hosted ≠ private
That misconception is exactly why I built STACKELIER.
A tool can run locally and still send prompts, documents, telemetry or inference requests somewhere else.
And even when privacy is acceptable, there’s another problem:
Will the stack actually run well on your hardware?
STACKELIER is a Private AI Stack Finder that evaluates configurations based on:
TASK + PRIVACY + HARDWARE + EVIDENCE = FIT
It looks at the full setup:
app location
data location
inference location
model + runtime
hardware compatibility
evidence/confidence
The goal is not to build another boring AI directory.
The goal is to answer a much more practical question:
What private AI stack can I realistically use for my work, my data and my hardware?
I’d really value feedback from people working with:
local AI, RAG, cybersecurity, development, consulting, legal or finance.
The most useful feedback for me is not “looks good”.
It’s this:
Where does the recommendation feel wrong, unrealistic or incomplete for your setup?
thx in advance
