A chatbot in a browser tab helps a little. The real gains arrive when the AI can see the work: your inbox, your calendar, your documents, your job records. We wire the right AI into the tools you already use — Claude where it's strongest, and the rest of the toolbox where it isn't — with guardrails a business owner would insist on, because we insisted on them for ourselves.
Vendor loyalty is for vendors. We work across the frontier and the open-weight world, and we'll tell you straight which tool fits which job — including when the answer is "none yet."
Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, Kimi — the most capable models, run through accounts you own, scoped to what each task needs. Strongest for judgment-heavy drafting, analysis, and agent work.
Mistral, Llama-class, and other open-weight models running locally through Ollama — on a workstation or a shop server. Slower and simpler than the frontier, but the data never leaves the building.
Cursor and its kin for code and technical work; OpenClaw-class personal agents for the individual operator's daily workflow. The playbooks we write for you are plain files — they port across all of it.
For records that can't leave your custody — patient files, client ledgers, family data — an entirely on-premises stack: open-weight models, local storage, your hardware, your keys. Optional, and honestly scoped: we'll tell you what local models can and can't carry.
Drafts replies from the actual email thread. Preps your morning from the actual calendar. Quotes from your actual price sheet — not from generic internet averages.
Nothing leaves the building without a human yes. Drafts queue for your review; you edit, approve, or kill them. The AI proposes. You dispose.
It sees what you grant and nothing more. Connections are permissioned tool by tool, revocable in a click, and logged — so you can always answer "what did it touch?"
Everything runs under accounts you own. When the engagement ends, you keep the whole apparatus — we don't hold your credentials, and we can't hold your workflow hostage.
We walk your week and find the drafting, chasing, and re-typing worth automating — before any technology gets discussed.
Email, calendar, documents, records — wired up under your accounts, with access scoped to exactly what the job needs.
Your pricing rules, your voice, your procedures — written into instructions the AI follows every time. Your judgment, made repeatable.
We don't leave until your crew runs it without us. The goal is your independence, not our invoice stream.
Liberty Forge is an independent consultancy, unaffiliated with and not endorsed by any vendor named on this page — Anthropic (Claude), OpenAI (GPT), Google (Gemini), xAI (Grok), Moonshot (Kimi), Mistral, Cursor, or the open-source projects we deploy. We're practitioners who build on these tools daily, and our only loyalty is to what works for you.
We're building a productized local buildout and retrofit service with IT partners in the Watertown area: sovereign AI workstations for professionals, shop-server retrofits for businesses whose records can't leave the building, and a care plan that keeps models and playbooks current. The partner handles hardware, network, and on-site support; we handle the AI layer and the training. Founding clients and partner shops — we want to hear from you.
