PlowzBox · The AI

The AI runs on the box. All of it.

Every answer is computed on the box at your shop, not in somebody's data center. No cloud account, no per-token fees, no meter running. Your customer list never leaves the building, and the assistant keeps working when the internet doesn't.

The models are on the disk you own. Running them costs you electricity, not a subscription tier.

Your data center is a shelf in your shop. The models never leave it.

How it thinks

Small questions get the small model. Hard ones get the big one.

There isn't one AI on the box, there are four, each doing the job it's actually good at. Here's the plain-English version.

Fast tier

Routine, in a blink

“When's my next mowing?” doesn't need a supercomputer. A small, quick model handles the routine stuff in about the time it takes to read it.

Hard tier

Tricky, done right

A tangled quote request or a long, winding email gets handed to the bigger model on the same box. Slower by a beat, better judgment. You never pick, the box routes it.

Vision

Reads the photos

A customer texts a picture of the brown patch or the overgrown backyard. A vision model on the box looks at it, so the drafted reply can reflect what they actually sent.

Search

Finds the right answer

An embedding model indexes your knowledge base and your job history, so answers get pulled from the right page instead of made up from thin air.

For the technically curious: fully open-weight models from the Qwen and Phi families, running locally on the box's own hardware. No API keys, no external model endpoints, no cloud fallback quietly sending your data out.

No cloud, no meter

Ask it anything, all day. The price is the box.

Cloud AI bills you per token, per conversation, or per “credit.” The models on your PlowzBox are already on the disk, so using them more doesn't cost more.

Flat cost

No per-token fees, ever

No AI usage tier, no surprise overage, no meter. Your busiest week of the season costs the same as the quietest week of January: nothing beyond the electricity.

Offline

Keeps working when the internet doesn't

Schedule, customer notes, and the assistant all run locally, so drafting and planning keep working through an outage. Texts and emails send when the connection comes back, same as any phone.

Private

Your book of business stays home

Customer names, numbers, addresses, and job history live on the box in your building. There is no vendor cloud copy of your customer list to leak, sell, or hold hostage.

Honesty by design

Built to say “I don't know.”

An AI that guesses confidently is a liability in your customer's pocket. This one is built to hand the hard ones to you. These are hard rules in the software, not settings.

Hard rule 01

Never invents a price

Every dollar figure comes from your price book. If the price isn't there, the assistant says so and flags it to you. It does not guess.

Hard rule 02

Never fakes a booking

It never says a job is booked unless it is actually on the calendar. What it tells customers is what the schedule actually says.

Hard rule 03

Waits for your approval

Every reply can require your one-tap approval before it sends, and disputes, refunds, and money talk always come to you. The AI drafts. You decide.

Your data

Yours to keep. Yours to take.

Owning the hardware only matters if the data on it is really yours. So it is, in both directions.

Owner PIN

You hold the keys

The owner dashboard sits behind your PIN. Crew phones see run-sheets, not the books. Approvals, money, and settings are yours alone.

Encrypted

Full-disk encryption

The drive is encrypted end to end. If someone walks off with the box, they walk off with a very heavy paperweight, not your customer list.

CSV export

Leave whenever you want

Customers, jobs, and invoices export to plain CSV files anytime. No hostage data, no export fee, no “talk to sales to leave.” It's your business; these are just its records.

Also true, and worth saying: the box accepts no inbound connections from the internet. There is no login page for the world to knock on.

Early access

See it think, on real hardware.

At the demo, the answers come off the box in front of you, with the network cable's status on display. No cloud behind the curtain.

You own the box. Your data stays on it. Pricing in plain numbers at the demo.
