The Stand8 Model Gateway, deployed in the client’s cloud, routes each task to the right model, while a 90-day delivery path turns proof of concept into secure, compliant enterprise AI
LOS ANGELES, Sept. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Stand8, a global technology consulting firm, today launched the Stand8 Model Gateway, expanding its enterprise AI services to reduce the cost of AI applications and move organizations from proof of concept to secure, compliant production in 90 days.
The practice centers on the Stand8 Model Gateway, deployed in the client’s own account on AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud, where it sits between the client’s applications and the models they use. Stand8 designs and tunes the routing strategy but never sits in the data path. The gateway evaluates each discrete task, then routes it to the most appropriate model, including leading closed models, open-source and open-weight models, or smaller and fine-tuned models, while applying caching, identity, policy, and audit controls. This approach can reduce unnecessary model spend, improve visibility into AI usage, and help organizations adopt new models without rebuilding their applications.
“Organizations should not have to commit every AI task to the most expensive model, or redesign an application every time a better model becomes available,” said Eric Gula, Vice President of Enterprise Solution Architecture and Delivery at Stand8. “The Stand8 Model Gateway gives clients a flexible control layer for choosing the right model for each task, balancing quality, speed, cost, and governance. Combined with our 90-Day Enterprise AI Sprint, it helps clients move from a promising proof of concept to an enterprise application people use and trust.”
The 90-Day Enterprise AI Sprint takes one defined use case through data validation, model strategy, gateway integration, security and compliance controls, testing, and handoff to a named owner, measured on output quality, cost per outcome, and time saved.
Stand8 delivers AI solutions within an ISO/IEC 27001:2022-certified security program with an annual SOC 2 Type II examination and incorporates security, compliance, and governance into the delivery process from the outset.
