Why BRICQS

Purpose-built
for AI companies.

Most cloud platforms weren't designed for AI workloads. BRICQS was. Dedicated infrastructure, five specialized runtimes, zero-credential security, and a global edge network โ€” all in one platform, no glue code required.

Use cases

Who builds on BRICQS

From two-person startups shipping their first AI product to enterprise teams running regulated AI infrastructure at scale.

AI Startups

Ship your first AI product faster

You're moving fast and don't want to spend weeks stitching together a model hosting service, a database, an edge network, and a secrets manager. BRICQS gives you all of it in one platform. Deploy a GPU runtime, connect your database, secure your API keys โ€” in one afternoon.

  • Free tier to start โ€” no credit card required
  • One platform instead of five separate services
  • GPU containers ready in minutes
  • Built-in WAF and edge security
  • Dedicated infrastructure (not a shared pool)
Enterprise AI Teams

Run AI infrastructure at enterprise scale

Your org needs dedicated infrastructure, audit logs on every action, approval gates before production deploys, secrets isolation between teams, and SSO. BRICQS is built for teams that need these controls, not teams that need to build them.

  • Per-org dedicated storage and secrets vault
  • Audit log on every platform action
  • Approval gate workflow for production deploys
  • Admin governance panel
  • Quota guardrails per org
  • 3-environment model (dev / preview / prod)
AI Research Teams

Focus on research, not DevOps

You need to run large open-weight models, store and query embeddings, and build retrieval pipelines โ€” without becoming a cloud infrastructure expert. BRICQS handles the Kubernetes, the networking, the SSL certs, the GPU allocation. You focus on the model.

  • GPU containers for LLaMA, Mistral, Phi-3
  • pgvector embedding storage built-in
  • RAG pipeline with PDF / DOCX / TXT ingestion
  • Realtime LISTEN/NOTIFY for live updates
  • No DevOps required
The alternative

One platform. Not five tools.

Here's what you'd stitch together without BRICQS โ€” and what BRICQS replaces.

Five reasons teams choose BRICQS
over piecing it together

Not just convenience โ€” BRICQS is architected differently from shared-pool platforms that bolt on AI features as an afterthought.

01

Dedicated, not shared

Your org gets its own Storage account and secrets vault at signup. No multi-tenant pooling. Data isolation isn't a compliance add-on โ€” it's the default architecture.

02

Security built in, not bolted on

BRICQS Identity means zero passwords in environment variables. WAF and bot protection on every domain by default. Audit log on every platform action โ€” create, update, deploy, delete.

03

Real observability out of the box

CPU%, memory%, GPU utilization, request count, and response time from Azure Monitor on every deployment. No OpenTelemetry configuration, no Grafana setup, no third-party agent to install.

04

Three environments, one platform

Development, preview, and production run simultaneously on the same platform. Promote from preview to production with zero downtime and a single click โ€” no YAML required.

05

AI-native from the start

Five runtimes designed specifically for AI workloads: an LLM gateway with model routing and caching, GPU containers for open-weight model inference, agent loop orchestration with memory and tool use, RAG pipeline runtime with document ingestion, and visual workflow orchestration. These aren't adapter layers over general compute โ€” they're first-class platform primitives built for how AI applications actually work.

Runtimes

Five runtimes for every AI workload

Each runtime is purpose-built โ€” not a thin wrapper around generic cloud compute.

Security first

Zero-credential identity.
Encrypted vault. Audit log on everything.

Built for teams that can't afford a security incident. Every BRICQS deployment ships with enterprise-grade security controls โ€” not as a paid add-on.

BRICQS Identity

Services authenticate via identity tokens โ€” no passwords in environment variables, no secrets in .env files. Credentials rotate automatically.

Encrypted Secrets Vault

Each org gets a dedicated Azure Key Vault backed secret store. AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit. Isolated from every other tenant.

Platform Audit Log

Every create, update, deploy, and delete action is logged with actor, timestamp, IP, and resource ID. Export to SIEM or query in-dashboard.

Approval Gate Workflow

Require a second approver before any production deploy executes. Gate by environment, resource type, or org-level policy โ€” configurable per team.

WAF on every domain

Web Application Firewall and bot protection activate automatically on every custom domain you attach. No Cloudflare plan required.

Role-based access control

Fine-grained RBAC per project and per environment. Invite teammates as admin, editor, or viewer. SSO ready for enterprise orgs.

DDoS mitigation

Azure-backed edge absorbs volumetric attacks before they reach your runtimes. Automatic rate limiting and geo-blocking available per project.

Developer experience

From zero to deployed in one afternoon

BRICQS is opinionated about the happy path. You shouldn't need to read a 40-page AWS docs page to deploy a GPU container. The CLI, dashboard, and API are all designed to minimize time-to-first-deploy.

  • bricqs init sets up your project in under 60 seconds
  • Push-to-deploy with automatic preview environments
  • Environment variable management built into the dashboard
  • Log streaming and health checks available immediately
  • CLI, REST API, and dashboard โ€” all in sync
