FAQ
Frequently asked questions about sovereign AI, NGARi pricing, deployment, security, and how we’re different from ChatGPT.
What is NGARi?
NGARi is the first Sovereign Business Operating System (SBOS) — an autonomous AI platform that runs on your own infrastructure, operates your business functions 24/7, maintains complete data sovereignty, provides audit-grade governance, and requires zero cloud dependency. Think of it as an operating system for your business that you actually own.
How is NGARi different from ChatGPT or Claude?
ChatGPT and Claude are cloud-based AI assistants that send your data to third-party servers for processing. You pay a subscription to rent access to someone else’s AI.
NGARi runs entirely on your own hardware (NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin or similar). Your data never leaves your infrastructure. You own it, you control it, you audit it. No one else can change the rules, raise the price, or shut it down.
What hardware do I need?
NGARi is purpose-built for the NVIDIA Jetson family of edge AI computers. We support:
- **NGARi ONE** (Orin Nano Super, 67 TOPS, $499) — Personal sovereign AI
- **Jetson AGX Orin** (275 TOPS, 64GB) — Production deployments
- **Jetson Thor** (600+ TOPS, 128GB) — Enterprise fleet
We handle the hardware procurement, configuration, and deployment for subscription plans. Or bring your own Jetson.
## What agents are included?
Six autonomous agents:
1. **CEO** — Strategic oversight and revenue monitoring
2. **CRO** — Sales pipeline analysis and outreach
3. **Engineer** — System health monitoring and diagnostics

Can I accept payments with NGARi?
Yes. NGARi includes built-in e-commerce via Medusa.js with Stripe integration (live mode, charges and payouts enabled). We also support BTCPay Server for sovereign Bitcoin payments — zero fees, zero middlemen.
Is NGARi compliant with regulations?
NGARi is built for compliance from day one. Every AI decision is logged with verifiable artifacts — SHA-256 hash-chained audit logs. We’re working toward SOC 2 Type I certification, and our architecture supports FedRAMP readiness and EU AI Act compliance. Because your data never leaves your hardware, you maintain full control over regulatory requirements.
Can I use NGARi offline?
Yes. NGARi runs local LLM inference. Your data never leaves your device. It’s fully sovereign. Works in DDIL (denied, degraded, intermittent, low-bandwidth) environments, classified facilities, or anywhere without internet.
What is NVIDIA Inception?
NVIDIA Inception is a global startup accelerator program. NGARi was accepted, giving us access to NVIDIA’s marketplace, technical support, VC network, and co-marketing opportunities. You can verify our membership on the NVIDIA Inception directory.
