Australia's AI Infrastructure Company
for the Next Generation of Builders
LocAI is an Australia-born platform built to make advanced AI access faster, more controllable, and fully local by design. User data stays local. Servers, APIs, and GPU compute are positioned in Sydney. The operating ambition is simple: build Australia's strongest AI company and a platform the country can take pride in.
Compatible with 30+ coding tools, SDKs & editors
Australia-Born. Platform-Grade. Built to Lead.
A premium AI access layer for teams that want local control, Australian operating credibility, and a serious path from prototype to national-scale deployment.
LocAI 1.0 Platform Engine
A proprietary platform layer designed around coding agents, structured workflows, and high-frequency developer tasks.
Absolute Local Data Posture
User data handling is built around a strict Australia-first operating model, with localisation treated as a platform feature rather than a brochure line.
Sydney Data And Compute Footprint
Servers, APIs, and GPU-backed compute capacity are positioned in Sydney so the platform path stays local, governed, and easier to trust.
Native Dual Protocol
Full OpenAI Chat Completions + Anthropic Messages. Streaming, non-streaming, tool use — all work identically. One API key unlocks both worlds.
Secure Key Management
SHA-256 hashed keys. Per-key budgets, rate limits, model allowlists. Keys shown once, stored never. Revoke any key instantly.
Real-Time Analytics
Track every token, millisecond, and cent. Filter by model, protocol, key, or date range. CSV export. Prometheus + Grafana ready.
Simple Prepaid Credits
Pay only for what you use. Top up in seconds. Real-time cost estimates before every request. Never get a surprise bill.
Battle-Tested with 30+ Coding Tools
Claude Code. Cline. Roo Code. Cursor. Windsurf. Aider. Copilot. Continue. We test every tool, every release. Multi-turn tool loops verified at scale.
Enterprise Rate Controls
Per-key and per-user RPM, TPM, concurrency caps. Sliding-window algorithm on Redis. Priority queues. Guaranteed tenant isolation.
Enterprise Security Posture
JWT with automatic rotation, admin audit trails, webhook signature verification, privacy-first prompt handling, and a local-infrastructure trust story that reads cleanly in procurement.
Seamless Model Upgrades
Stable model aliases that never change. Canary rollouts. A/B testing. Traffic splitting. Upgrade your backend without touching a single line of user code.
Start Building in 60 Seconds
No paperwork. No sales calls. No waiting.
Create Your Account
Register with your invitation and receive A$100 in prepaid wallet credit when your account is created.
Generate Your API Key
Click once to create a key. Set per-key budgets, model access, and rate limits. Your key appears exactly once — we only store the hash.
Connect Your Tools & Build
Copy your key into Claude Code, Cline, Cursor — any tool you use. Zero code changes needed. Start shipping AI features immediately.
Same SDK. One Line Changed.
