Runs on hardware you control
Adel Labs · Design, engineering & applied AI
Private AI, dashboards and tools for individuals, and digital products for small businesses and research programmes. Adel Labs takes each project from the first brief to handover, and you review working versions with the person building them.
Built around your work. Commission the complete setup, with reusable workflows and the knowledge to operate it.
View all services →
01 / Brand, websites & apps
Brand assets, responsive pages or a working app, editable source and a walkthrough.
Commission your brand identity, website or personal app. Connect product information and clear navigation to the task your customers or colleagues need to complete.
02 / Agent setup & workflows
A configured environment, agent roles, skill library, workflow files and representative task checks.
Get Claude Code or Codex configured with specialist agents, reusable skills, project context and review steps. Reuse the same prepared workflows for research, design and development.
Claude Code and Codex are development environments built around your projects.
03 / Private AI & workspaces
A model workspace matched to your hardware, access settings, documented data routes and tested workflows.
Search confidential documents and prepare cited drafts on your workstation or private server. Define access, document sources and answer-quality checks for the agreed task. Provider-backed Claude Code and Codex configurations use connected model services; a fully offline model workspace is a separate configuration.
04 / Research & engineering
Visible inputs and assumptions, calculation checks, local import and export, and editable source.
Connect measurements, assumptions and calculations in a report, dashboard or technical tool. Package suitable workflows for offline use with local imports and exports.
Agents and reusable skills, configured around your task and review points.
Explore agent workflows →Private AI · Unrestricted models
Answers from your documents. Sources you can check.
Search approved documents and open the passage behind each answer. Documents and model processing stay inside the boundary you agree; a fully offline setup is tested with the connection off.
Agree the approved sources, authorised users, output formats and acceptance checks before implementation. Reduced refusals do not establish accuracy; source review remains part of the work.
Open models run on your workstation or private server. The refusal layer is a model’s learned refusal behaviour. Locus is the on-site GPU rental partner: it provides the leased infrastructure.
Unrestricted model options
Open-model variants with reduced refusal behaviour can be evaluated for the agreed task. Model choice follows the required output, operating boundary and representative checks.

Layer 01 / 05
Organise the documents and references agreed for your workspace.
Access boundaries: check which users can retrieve each approved source.
Layer 02 / 05
Scope source-linked answers and comparisons across the selected material.
Source traceability: check that cited passages support the answer.
Layer 03 / 05
Qwen3.8-27B Abliterated / GLM-5.3-Flash Uncensored
Choose a model after the task is clear. Compare answer quality, response time, hardware requirements, licence terms and operating cost on representative work.

Layer 04 / 05
A private model environment without buying the GPUs upfront. Locus provides the leased infrastructure; Adel Labs builds the working system around your research and team.
Fully offline operation needs the entire workflow to run locally.
Layer 05 / 05
Define the document formats, source trail and export route at handover.
Unsupported answers: check how the workspace handles missing or conflicting evidence.

Project delivery
Scope, fee and schedule depend on your content, integrations, data handling and acceptance checks.
01 / Scope
Users, content, constraints and acceptance checks. A defined brief and delivery scope.
02 / Design
Review the structure with representative content. A working prototype you can assess.
03 / Build
Check behaviour, boundaries and outputs. The agreed build and recorded checks.
04 / Handover
Review normal operation and responsibilities. Agreed source files, configuration, operating notes and a walkthrough.
Maintenance, updates and further development are scoped separately. Responsibilities are agreed before handover.
Before we begin
Adel Labs works with individuals, small businesses, engineering teams and research programmes seeking a defined piece of work and direct collaboration with the person building it. Start with the users, task and constraints. Scope, deliverables and acceptance checks are agreed before work begins.
You receive a proposal covering deliverables, fee, schedule and review points before work begins. If a technical question needs testing first, we can scope a prototype before committing to the full build.
The proposal states the agreed scope, inclusions, exclusions and recurring charges before work begins. The amount depends on the content, integrations, data handling and acceptance work required.
The proposal states the delivery schedule, starting condition and dependencies before work begins. Timing depends on content, integrations, reviews and agreed acceptance checks.
Confidentiality, data access, storage, processing, retention and deletion arrangements are agreed in writing before access is granted. Please do not send confidential files until those arrangements are confirmed.
We agree where your files are stored and which systems process them before setup. The workspace can use your own hardware, a private server or agreed external services. Any offline workflow is tested without an internet connection before handover.
Compare operating modes →The proposal identifies the source files, configuration, documents and access you receive. Third-party model and software licences remain applicable. You receive operating instructions and an agreed backup/export route.
Handover includes the agreed checks, operating instructions and a walkthrough. Ongoing support, maintenance, update testing and further development are scoped separately.
