What if you could use AI to analyze sensitive business data without ever risking a leak? Most companies can’t. Public AI tools like ChatGPT require sending data to the cloud, exposing it to third parties. But there’s a better way: local AI.
Introduction: AI in the Age of Privacy Concerns
Businesses today face a dilemma: How can they leverage advanced AI tools without exposing sensitive data to third-party servers? Public AI solutions (like ChatGPT or Bard) often require sending data to the cloud, which many organizations simply can’t accept due to security and compliance risks.
The solution? Local AI models running entirely on your own infrastructure. That’s where Nexa CLI comes in. This open-source tool lets businesses safely deploy AI internally, without ever sharing data externally.
What Is Nexa CLI?
Nexa CLI is a lightweight, open-source application that enables:
✅ Running AI models locally (e.g., Llama, Mistral) on your own computer or server.
✅ Processing data without an internet connection - ideal for companies with strict security policies.
✅ Integration with other systems (like ERP or databases) via API.
✅ Easy setup - just download and run on your laptop or company server.
Why is this a game-changer?
- No risk of data leaks - everything stays within your local network.
- Full control over the model and input data.
- Customizable to fit your specific business needs.
Nexa CLI uses the following project NexaAI

Run AI cross-platform with a few lines of codeReal-World Applications
1. Secure Data Analysis
Companies can process sensitive data (e.g., financial records, HR files) without worrying about leaks. Examples:
- Generating reports from ERP systems (like IFS Cloud) using a local AI model.
- Automatically summarizing documents (contracts, specifications) without uploading them to the cloud.
2. Business Process Automation
Nexa CLI allows seamless integration with existing systems (like ERP or CRM) to automate tasks such as:
- Classifying documents (invoices, orders).
- Generating responses to inquiries (e.g., for customer support).
- Predicting trends based on historical data.
3. Building In-House AI Assistants
Instead of relying on public chatbots, businesses can create their own AI assistant that:
- Understands industry-specific terminology.
- Keeps all data in-house - no external sharing.
- Works offline (e.g., in manufacturing plants without internet access).
Example: Integration with IFS Cloud
One practical use of Nexa CLI is connecting it with ERP systems like IFS Cloud. This allows you to:
- Extract data from IFS Cloud (e.g., orders, inventory levels).
- Process it locally using an AI model (e.g., Llama).
- Generate reports, alerts, or recommendations - all without sending data to external servers.
Use Case Example:
"We pull delivery delay data from IFS Cloud, analyze it with a local AI model, and generate alerts for the logistics team - all within our private network."
Why This Beats Public AI Solutions
| Criteria | Public AI (e.g., ChatGPT) | Nexa CLI (Local AI) |
|---|---|---|
| Data Security | ❌ Data sent to external servers | ✅ Everything stays local |
| Model Control | ❌ Limited customization | ✅ Full personalization |
| Offline Access | ❌ Requires internet | ✅ Works without connection |
| Cost | ❌ API/token fees | ✅ One-time setup |
| Compliance | ❌ Risk of violations | ✅ Fully compliant |
How to Get Started: Step-by-Step
- Download Nexa CLI from GitHub.
- Install it on your local machine or server.
- Configure your AI model (e.g., Llama, Mistral) - documentation included.
- Connect to your systems (e.g., IFS Cloud, databases) via API.
