35 / VC & PE Funds
On-Premise Enterprise Brain for a Venture Capital Fund
We put one brain over all of a climate fund's scattered systems, running on a Mac Studio inside their firewall, so a partner can ask one question and get a cited answer across every email, call and database they already pay for.

The problem
Avaana's operating knowledge sat across Taghash CRM, Google Workspace, M365 email, WhatsApp, Zoom calls in Granola, Drive, Tracxn and LinkedIn Sales Navigator. A question like 'which companies have we seen in gas turbines, what did we conclude, and who can I speak to' could not be answered reliably from those systems; it was answered from memory or not at all.
Solution & architecture
We deployed the Omni agent platform and Enterprise Brain as an AI-native back-end on Avaana's own Mac Studio, inside the firewall. It reaches each system through the right door (native MCP, official API, or our Crawl360 browser only where no channel exists), builds a de-duplicated entity graph, and answers in natural language citing the source of every fact. Proprietary data and local models never leave the machine; human approval gates every write.
Why it is built this way
Inside the firewall
Enterprise Brain runs on Avaana's Mac Studio
Proprietary data never leaves
Local models on-prem; cloud only via Avaana's keys
Human-approved writes
Agents read freely; every write is approved
