Sotyok’s Closed-Door AI Lab
A Japanese consultancy designs local and on-premise AI systems for organizations that cannot send sensitive data to cloud services.
Field notes
The described deployment keeps a browser-based chat system, model server, vector database, and source materials inside a university criminology lab. Sotyok specifies one RTX 4090, a 32B-class model compressed with AWQ, and vLLM as the serving layer, then uses RAG to retrieve literature and court decisions with citations. The page presents the reported 70 percent reduction in document-sorting effort as a case-study result, while noting that the institution and deployment scale remain confidential.
