Frequently asked questions.
The questions companies actually ask — answered before the first call.
Does it run on our infrastructure?
Yes. Determa builds on your or EU infrastructure — no subprocessors, no third-country transfer, no black box.
Who operates the system after the project?
Your team. Every build ends with a handover — documentation, training, runbook. Operation packages are optional, not a lock-in.
What does it cost?
An hourly rate agreed up front, billed for the hours worked, phase by phase. Every phase comes with acceptance criteria and an hour estimate before it starts; a complete sample scope with hour estimates is published on renezander.com.
Are you an agency?
No. Determa is founder-led: the person who designs the system delivers it. No sales team promising what another team has to keep.
We already have a vendor or a PoC — can you work with that?
Yes. The AI System Review independently checks an existing use case, PoC or vendor architecture for production-readiness — including a build-or-buy recommendation.
Does this satisfy the EU AI Act?
Determa engineers the technical duties into the system — genuine human oversight, a complete audit trail, data governance on your infrastructure. Engineering perspective, not legal advice.
Which AI vendors or models do you use?
Vendor-neutral. The right model, hosting and tooling are an outcome of the review — build-or-buy is a deliverable, not a foregone conclusion.
How fast do we see something working?
The intro call takes 30 minutes and ends with a concrete next step. Delivery runs in phases, and the first accepted phase is typically weeks away, not quarters.
