AI does the heavy lifting, people stay in charge
Use AI to interpret permitted inputs, suggest structured mappings and generate candidate outputs for the stated task modules. Use deterministic code for arithmetic, schema validation, hard constraints and reproducible tests. Review source-linked explanations and uncertainty before accepting results. Model conversion, quantization and routing rules stay under named owner review; final release decisions remain with the app team. A model suggestion is never a verified fact, professional decision or authorization to act.
What your team sees
Primary screens: Device and model registry, Runtime configuration, Evaluation and rollout console. Use a list of target devices and installed models, a central panel for routing rules and conversion settings, and a right-hand panel for logs, latency and privacy flags. Let users compare on-device and cloud-fallback runs side by side. Display draft, tested and released states. Provide a source-linked trace for each request decision. Make the task-specific outcome reviewed on-device runtime configuration visible beside its evidence, review state and value baseline.
Accounts and administration
Project ownership, device profiles, model versions, routing rules, approval states, usage allowances, release limits, download history and a rights record for supplied model files. Add organization access boundaries, named reviewers, usage caps, data retention controls, export logs and explicit approval for external actions.
Integrations and data access
App-owned model files, authorized device test farms and permitted model sources. Cloud asset storage, app build pipelines and analytics destinations. Start with file exchange and validate destination specifications before promising direct publishing. Start with authorized file exchange. Validate current provider access, usage rights and schema behavior before promising a connector.
How we build it
We build with our own AI software development factory, so most implementations take days to a few weeks of creation time, not months. You see working software at every step, and exact timing depends on availability.

Why we start with an MVP
An MVP, or minimum viable product, is the smallest version that your users can actually work with. It is not a cheap version of the full solution. It is a test, built to answer the questions that decide whether the rest is worth building.
- Pick the riskiest assumption. Here: will mobile app teams shipping AI features that must run privately on the device use it to solve "cloud inference sends user data off-device, fails offline, and forces separate builds per platform and model format"?
- Build only what tests it. One team, one use case, a few core modules. People do the rest by hand for now.
- Run a paid pilot. Agree quality and outcome thresholds before the pilot using this measure: On-device inference latency, offline completion rate and cloud calls avoided.
- Measure, then decide. Track on-device inference latency and offline completion rate and cloud calls avoided; accepted-output rate; material error rate; reviewer correction time; actual repeat purchase. Then expand, change course or stop, with evidence instead of opinions.
MVP scope for this solution. Pilot scope: One target platform pair and one model family; final release and privacy decisions remain with the app team. Implement one approved model format, a bounded representative device set and the first two task modules: run models locally on the device without sending data to the cloud; support iOS and Android through one consistent API. Support the third module with operator review: handle text, image, audio and video input in a single model. Include source references, corrections, basic organization access, approval states, export and value measurement. Use managed operator assistance for unresolved exceptions. The cost estimate covers this narrow prototype, not unrestricted multi-tenant scale, complex production integrations, specialist certification or physical operations.
After the MVP. Once paid pilots prove usefulness, automate repeatable reviewed steps and add one verified source integration. Expand supported devices and model formats only after new evaluation cases pass. Build reusable customer configurations and recurring value reports around reviewed on-device runtime configuration. Retain the explicit scope boundary: One target platform pair and one model family; final release and privacy decisions remain with the app team.
What the build depends on. Model upload and preview, asynchronous conversion jobs, editable version history, reviewer access and tested export formats. High-fidelity production requires specialist mobile QA. Obtain representative authorized cases, baseline measurements, qualified reviewers and a buyer-side decision owner. Specific limitation: One target platform pair and one model family; final release and privacy decisions remain with the app team.

Selling it to your own clients: the go-to-market playbook
Pricing to test
Test a USD 300-1,500 fixed pilot for one defined device and model package. Offer a monthly runtime allowance after repeat demand. Quote complex multi-platform or specialist model work separately. These are test prices, not market benchmarks. Package the initial sale as one bounded reviewed on-device runtime configuration. Recurring fees must specify device count, model volume and support depth. For exchanges, test a disclosed coordination or successful-service fee rather than holding customer funds. Reprice only after measuring real delivery labor; platform-build cost is separate from a commercial pilot fee.
Message to test
Run AI models directly on mobile devices for fast, private processing. Demonstrate a concrete reviewed on-device runtime configuration using the buyer's approved example and show the baseline, corrections and actual delivery effort.
Where to find buyers
Mobile app teams shipping AI features that must run privately on the device professional communities; specialist consultants serving this buyer; permissioned partner introductions; practical demonstrations at relevant trade or practitioner events.
Lead magnet
A reviewed sample reviewed on-device runtime configuration from a small authorized input set, with a transparent calculation of on-device inference latency, offline completion rate and cloud calls avoided and no promised savings.
The first 30 days
- Week 1: interview five mobile app teams shipping AI features that must run privately on the device and inspect a recent example of cloud inference sending user data off-device, failing offline, and forcing separate builds per platform and model format.
- Week 2: prepare a consented or synthetic demonstration of the three task modules.
- Week 3: seek one bounded paid pilot with agreed baseline and acceptance criteria.
- Week 4: measure on-device inference latency, offline completion rate and cloud calls avoided, reviewer effort and repeat-purchase interest. This is a demand-validation plan, not a thirty-day full-product delivery promise.
Paid pilot
Agree quality and outcome thresholds before the pilot using this measure: On-device inference latency, offline completion rate and cloud calls avoided. Continue only if the buyer accepts the actual output, the intended job outcome improves without unacceptable errors, and measured delivery cost fits willingness to pay. Revise or stop if access is unavailable, qualified review cannot be provided, or apparent savings disappear after corrections and support. Use held-out cases when comparing model quality; use a properly reviewed comparison design before making causal claims. Record missing cases and negative results alongside successful outputs.
Success metrics
On-device inference latency, offline completion rate and cloud calls avoided; accepted-output rate; material error rate; reviewer correction time; actual repeat purchase.
Retention and expansion
Repeat the workflow when the buyer again needs reviewed on-device runtime configuration. Retain permissioned settings and reviewed examples, report realized value honestly, and sell increased volume or adjacent approved workflows only after contribution margin and quality remain acceptable.
Why clients would pick it
A reusable library of approved device profiles, conversion settings and review examples, together with reliable delivery for a narrow mobile niche. Build a permissioned library of representative device cases, reviewer corrections and verified operating constraints for mobile app teams shipping AI features that must run privately on the device. Repeatable delivery and useful integrations matter more than access to a base model.
Alternatives and positioning
Lora, RunAnywhere, NexaSDK for Mobile and Gemma 3n. Compare this product with the buyer's present method on on-device inference latency, offline completion rate and cloud calls avoided. Offer a bounded paid workflow instead of claiming broad autonomous expertise. Market uniqueness and competitor coverage are not verified.
Main delivery costs
Model conversion runs, device test hours, storage, reviewer hours, client revision rounds and licensed model files. Additional initial validation requires representative authorized device samples, buyer interviews, buyer-side evaluation and bounded validation of reviewed on-device runtime configuration. Track cost per accepted configuration, including correction work, unsuccessful cases and support.
Safeguards
Preserve user data on-device, source attribution, model licenses and usage permissions. The app team approves substantive changes and release scope. One target platform pair and one model family; final release and privacy decisions remain with the app team. Keep all consequential actions under authorized human control and do not fabricate missing inputs, permissions, professional judgments or market evidence.
