Detailed Architecture & System Overview

PAI Starter 16 GB is a small server, about the size of a Mac mini, that runs open AI models in your home. It is for people who want a private assistant without building one: it arrives with the PAI software on it, and the box is the whole product.

Inside is a Ryzen 8745HS/8845HS-class processor with Radeon integrated graphics, 16 GB of DDR5 memory, a 1 TB NVMe drive, USB4, 2.5G Ethernet and Wi-Fi 6. With 16 GB we plan for it to run 7-14B models and gpt-oss-20b. It cannot run every model: nothing home-sized runs the largest frontier models.

On first boot PAI interviews you for about 15 minutes. Then it writes a plain-English page of what it will and will not do. You can read it and edit it.

You talk to PAI in the PAI app, an installable web app that only your own devices reach over your private network. Signal and Matrix, both end-to-end encrypted, are planned for month 1. Telegram and email work at launch, with a catch: Telegram relays bot chats on its servers and is not end-to-end encrypted, and your mail provider carries your email. WhatsApp and iMessage are optional and unsupported. Inference is local. If you choose WhatsApp or iMessage, Meta or Apple still carry the message.

No PAI account holds your data, and telemetry is off by default. Your personal memory and the search index over your own files live in a SQLite file on the box. Remote access goes through a private overlay network, so nothing listens on public interfaces.

The Starter is built to grow. Step one is more memory: the box has two memory slots and the second is left open. One memory stick runs in single-channel mode, which is slower until the second slot is filled. Step two is a GPU dock. Step three is a second box for bigger models. The dock port and the slot count are still to be confirmed on the supplier unit.

We have not measured speed, power or noise yet. We will publish measured numbers for each model and each upgrade stage after prototype testing. Which models fit on which memory size is an estimate until then.

Industrial Design & Architecture

Looks small. Lives large.

Five by five inches of sovereign AI compute. Precision CNC titanium unibody, NVIDIA-grade cellular acoustic mesh, and unified high-bandwidth silicon.

Studio Perspective

Bead-blasted champagne titanium unibody with 45° chamfers and elevated perimeter base.

Engineering & Thermals

Sovereignty from the inside out.

Engineered for continuous 24/7 autonomous agent execution. Zero noise at idle, ice-cold under continuous inference.

PAI Core exploded CAD architectural render
CNC Bead-Blasted Unibody

Titanium Monolith

Machined from a single block of aerospace-grade aluminum alloy with silky bead-blasted texture and diamond-cut 45° chamfers.

High-Static Pressure Centrifugal Fans

Dual Radial Blowers

Twin curved-blade radial fans pull fresh air across the 360° perimeter foot and channel it across the thermal core at near-zero dB.

Direct-Die Thermal Interface

Copper Vapor Chamber

Sintered copper vapor chamber contacts 100% of the unified silicon die, dissipating sustained 30W-50W workloads without throttling.

Rigid Aerospace Skeleton

Shielded Sub-Frame

Isolates vibration and grounds heavy I/O lanes including rear OCuLink 64Gbps, dual 2.5GbE, dual Thunderbolt 4, and HDMI 2.1.

Upgrade path

  1. Start here

    More memory

    Fill the open second slot. One stick runs single-channel until both are filled.

  2. Then

    GPU dock

    An add-on graphics dock. The port is to be confirmed on the supplier unit.

  3. Then

    Second box

    Add another PAI box for bigger models.
