Platform
Enterprise Search One search bar for everything you know Knowledge Graph Every fact carries a receipt Agent Studio AI teammates that follow policy App Builder New One prompt to a live applicationPricing
Every tier includes all four offerings on one contract — search, graph, agents, and apps — with the same governance substrate underneath. You choose where it runs and how far it reaches.
The full platform, managed by us.
For organizations that want search, graph, agents, and apps running on their data — without running infrastructure.
Your cloud or your data center.
For regulated enterprises that need the platform inside their own boundary — private cloud (VPC) or on-premises.
Air-gapped. Accreditation-ready.
For federal, defense, and intelligence programs where the deployment boundary is the mission boundary.

Apps as products
Applications built on the App Builder ship with subscription and billing infrastructure out of the box. An internal tool can become a revenue-generating product without a re-platforming project — launch, price, and sell on the same governed platform, at near-zero marginal cost per new app.
FAQ
As a platform subscription: one contract covers all four offerings — Enterprise Search, Knowledge Graph, Agent Studio, and App Builder — priced by deployment scope and usage. AI usage runs under budgets you set, with hard caps enforced by the platform.
Yes. LACE deploys to managed cloud, private cloud (VPC), on-premises, or fully air-gapped environments with no external AI calls. The governance substrate — provenance, permissions, budgets, audit — is identical in every footprint.
LACE resolves models by purpose through a model registry and settings plane. You can run our managed defaults, bring your own endpoints, or restrict specific workloads to specific models — with usage and cost attributed per tenant, user, and purpose.
We scope a technical evaluation on your documents and one real workflow, under NDA. You judge LACE on cited answers and working output — not slides. Typical evaluations run in weeks, not quarters.
No — it connects to them. Connectors sync SharePoint, Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, Notion, Slack, email, S3, databases, and existing indexes, and federated discovery reaches sources that can't move. Source-system permissions carry through to every result.
Yes. The lace-app-sdk — the public, versioned contract surface for building apps on LACE — is available to developers on every tier, along with local development that mirrors production and push-to-deploy through the governed release pipeline.
