Taking work history out of a private AI application

Short answer

When you change a private AI application, the history export must contain the questions, the documents and which version of the result was used, because a file with answer text alone does not let the next person continue the work. You check portability with a trial export and read-back before you choose the tool and before you shut the old service down.

Statistics

Private AI and data: statistics 2026

2.7 mo.

payback of a €3,000 local application at 300 conversations a month: €1,745 of work today, €650 with checking and the GPU server. Scenario.

Figures checked: 22 October 2026

A history export to check
  • Questions and answers with dates
  • Documents attached to the conversations
  • The version of the result that was used
  • A read-back in the new environment before the old one is shut down

A conversation should serve the next person

Suppose an employee compared delivery options, corrected the model's first answer and used a later version. After the application changes, a colleague opens an export with several similar answers. Without the order and a mark on the chosen version, she has to reconstruct what was actually accepted for further work. In the proposed archive, she sees the course of the conversation and the linked, checked output document.

Not every old answer should feed the new assistant. The team can keep a conversation for reference and pick only the approved output for reuse. The owner of the material decides what becomes the source for further work. That way an earlier draft does not start to look like a company decision only because it could be imported.

A conversation export has a set scope

Open WebUI describes exporting messages with metadata, model information and the conversation structure, and importing selected formats. The documentation also says that importing again creates new conversations. In the trial, open a history that was actually exported, together with its documents, in the target application.

Links to documents need a separate check. An export may keep an address that worked only in the old environment. What matters to the employee is whether, after the move, they can open the source and recognise which conversation it belongs to. When you choose the scope, start with the history people really use, and avoid copying every attachment without need.

An archive or a continued conversation

A read-only archive may be enough when the company needs to go back to earlier outputs. It is also simpler to assess: the reader should see the kept material and where it came from. Continuing a conversation in the new tool also requires checking how the new model uses the old questions and answers. Importing text does not make the assistant behave the same way.

If the current application already gives a usable export, the work you order can be limited to how it is browsed and linked to documents. A custom converter makes sense when formats differ or when you need to keep context that the standard export does not show conveniently. You do not have to replace the whole application at once.

Moving between environments

When you choose the next tool, the scope of an assistant on company documents is useful. Exporting old conversations, the archive and the option to continue them each need separate agreements.

In a private installation, where the export is stored also matters. A package of conversations may contain content from many projects, so access to it should follow the agreed permissions. Shutting down the old service and keeping the required materials have to be agreed with the data owners. Downloading the package does not prove that its earlier copies were deleted.

Syntalith's proposed trial can cover a few different histories: a short question, a conversation with corrections and an output based on documents. The employee who uses them judges how readable the new view is. IT decides where the archive lives, and the business owner chooses the materials for further use. After this trial you can define the scope of the migration and how gaps are handled.

Describe a conversation your team has to go back to after changing tools. We will discuss the export, access to sources and the need to continue the work. We price a private model after a free conversation about the task, the data and the hardware. An application that uses the model starts from €3,000 net (pricing).

What it costs

Scenario: 300 conversations a month
Today
300 conversations × 10 min = 50 h (€1,745)
With the application, an employee checks the result in 25% of the time
€436
Hetzner GEX45 GPU server
€214
Saving
€1,095 a month

Payback of €3,000

2.7 months

The volume, the time and the checking share are the scenario's assumptions, which we measure in the trial. €34.90 an hour is the EU average hourly labour cost for 2025 according to Eurostat. Price of the GEX45 server with 24 GB of GPU memory from Hetzner's website on 22 October 2026, excluding the one-off setup fee of €209.

What to agree with IT besides the model
  • Where the application takes documents from and where it saves results
  • What stays in logs, backups and the question history
  • Who has access to questions, answers and outputs
  • Who updates the model, the application and the document set

Where to start

In the free review we choose one task and 20 to 100 cases the team has already handled, and within 2 working days you receive a written summary with a price. We deploy the local model as part of private LLMs, and the application around it as part of AI apps.

€3,723

a month for finding answers to 800 questions in documents

Payback: 1 mo.

Our assumptions are 8 minutes to find an answer in documents or ask a colleague, and checking in 15% of the old time. €34.90 an hour is the EU average hourly labour cost for 2025 according to Eurostat, for companies with 10 or more employees. Model cost: Claude Sonnet 5.5, about 6,000 + 500 tokens per answer from documents, at the ECB rate of 1.1205 USD per euro on 22 October 2026.

foap.com customer service: 95% of replies are sent automatically.

Users from several countries write to foap.com, in several languages. The system reads the entire conversation and the terms of that person, and then sends a response in that person's language. Questions about money and exceptions go to the team with a ready draft, so they have to check and send them.

We establish a prototype during a free analysis.

Data checked on October 25, 2026.

„Is my data safe?”

Yes. You choose where they go: from your company account to the model on your server.

  1. 00Employee's private account

    Customer and company data ends up in an account that the company cannot see or control. There is no data processing agreement, so it is a violation of the GDPR. When an employee leaves, the chat history goes with them.

  2. 01ChatGPT or Claude corporate account

    The provider does not use your data to train models. A copy of the queries remains in his logs for up to 30 days.

  3. 02API with zero retention (ZDR)

    The provider processes the request and does not save anything. It requires his consent, we prepare the application together.

  4. 03Processing in the EU

    Queries are counted and stored in Europe: OpenAI in the EU region, Claude via clouds with the EU region.

  5. 04Model at your place

    The open model runs on your server or in your cloud in the EU. The data does not go outside the company.

What we do with every implementation

  • Confidentiality agreement and data processing agreement before we receive any data.
  • You choose the cases for the prototype and we anonymize them upon request.
  • The data stays in the EU and we delete it after the test.
  • Corporate accounts with an administrator on your side.

When data cannot leave the company

The open model runs on your server or in your cloud in the EU. To choose from:

White-tailed eagle
Polish model, SpeakLeash and ACK Cyfronet AGH
PLLUM
Polish model, HIVE consortium commissioned by the Ministry of Digitization
Qwen
Alibaba
GLM
Zhipu AI
DeepSeek
DeepSeek

We select a model for the task and check it on your cases. We run it, tune it and maintain it.

Do you have a lot of your own data? We will fine-tune the small model.

  1. 1 Your examples
  2. 2 tuning
  3. 3 test on new cases
  4. 4 model at your place

When you have thousands of similar emails, documents or reports, we teach a small open model based on your examples. It works for you, responds quickly and costs less to maintain than a large model. We measure quality on issues that the model has not seen while learning.

Przemysław and Piotr did it in large programming and consulting companies. Artem did it before and does it today at Syntalith. It's about models on your own infrastructure, tuning and quality measurement.

Questions

  • How do you move history out of a private AI application?

    With an export that covers the questions, the answers, the documents and the version of the result that was used, checked by reading it back in the new environment before the old service is shut down.

  • Is an imported conversation a company decision?

    No. An earlier draft stays a draft after import, so when you move the history you mark which results were approved.

  • How much does an application on a local model cost?

    At Syntalith, from €3,000 net plus GPU hardware, for example a Hetzner GEX45 server with 24 GB at €214 a month. At 300 conversations a month the payback is 2.7 months.

Let's talk

Just write, call or choose a date.

We work fast because we hate corporate cotton wool. We don't have salespeople or managers to keep an eye on managers. You talk immediately to engineers who then build your system. We respect each other's time and yours too.

We will accept 3 more companies by the end of the year.
