AI Solutions
Turn AI language models into real features your business actually uses, with LLM integration that ships, not just demos.
Avaib wires large language models like OpenAI's GPT and Anthropic's Claude into your software, data and workflows, grounded in your own information, kept accurate, and controlled on cost. Real features inside your business, not staff pasting into a public chatbot.
Delivered for teams in Australia, the United States, Canada and the Middle East.
One partner, from idea to live feature
The model is the easy part. The engineering around it is the job.
LLM integration connects a large language model like GPT or Claude into your software and data, so it does real work like drafting, searching, summarising and extracting, inside your business.
Calling the API is a few lines of code. The hard part is everything around it: getting the model to answer from your data instead of making things up, choosing the right model so you are not overpaying, keeping the token bill from creeping up every month, and getting the whole thing past an impressive demo into something your team can actually rely on. That gap is where most LLM projects quietly stall.
Avaib closes it. We are a software company first, so we ground the model in your own data, pick the right model for each job, engineer in cost controls from the start, and take the integration all the way into supported production. If you are still figuring out which use case to tackle first, our AI consulting service helps you find the two or three that genuinely pay off. And once the model is grounded in your data, we can layer on an AI chatbot for customer-facing use or automate the downstream workflow the LLM feeds into. One accountable team, honest model advice, and code you own, at a cost-effective rate.

The LLM integration services we deliver.
Every integration is shaped around a real job to be done. Here are the ones businesses ask us for most, often more than one, working together.
Draft and rewrite at scale
Turn a model like GPT or Claude into a drafting engine for proposals, product descriptions, replies and reports, in your tone, from your own material, so a first draft takes minutes instead of an afternoon.
Search your own documents in plain language
Let staff and customers ask a question and get an answer pulled from your contracts, policies, manuals and records, with a link back to the source, instead of hunting through folders and shared drives.
Summarise long material
Condense call transcripts, threads, tickets, contracts and research into a short, reliable brief, so people read the two lines that matter rather than the twenty pages around them.
Pull structured data out of messy text
Read invoices, emails, forms and PDFs and turn them into clean, structured fields your systems can use: the unglamorous extraction work that quietly saves hours of manual data entry.
Classify, tag and route automatically
Sort incoming tickets, enquiries and documents by topic, urgency or sentiment and send each to the right place, so the routine triage that eats your team's morning simply happens.
Add a copilot inside your own software
Embed an assistant into the app or portal you already run, so your users get help, drafting and answers in context, powered by an LLM wired into your data and actions.

What makes an LLM integration you can actually trust.
The difference between a feature people rely on and one that gets switched off is in the engineering around the model. Here's what we build in as standard.
The right model for the job
GPT, Claude, or an open-source model you can run yourself: each has strengths and a very different price. We pick per use case rather than marrying you to one provider, and keep the setup model-agnostic so you can switch on quality or cost later.
Grounded in your own data (RAG)
We connect the model to your documents and records with retrieval-augmented generation, so answers come from your verified information with references, not from what the model happens to guess. This is the single biggest thing that stops confident, made-up answers.
Cost kept under control
Token spend can spiral quietly. We route each job to the cheapest model that does it well, cache repeated work, and set hard spend limits and alerts, so you get the value without a surprise bill at the end of the month.
Guardrails and evaluation
Before anything goes live we test the model against the real inputs it will face, set boundaries on what it will and will not do, and add guardrails, so it behaves predictably instead of impressing once in a demo and failing in production.
A human in the loop where it matters
For anything high-stakes, we design a review step so a person approves before an action is taken. The model does the heavy lifting; a human stays accountable for the decisions that carry risk.
Monitored after launch
We log what the model does, watch for accuracy drift and cost creep, and keep improving it, because an LLM feature that nobody is watching slowly rots as your data and the models themselves change.
Want an integration that's accurate, model-agnostic and cost-controlled? That's exactly what we build.

Why most LLM projects disappoint, and how we avoid it.
These are the complaints we hear most about LLM projects. Here's exactly how Avaib is set up to avoid each one.
"It gave a confident answer that was flat wrong, and in our industry that's a real liability."
We ground the model in your own data with retrieval-augmented generation and add guardrails and a review step for high-stakes work, so answers come from your verified information with references, cutting the made-up answers that create risk.
"The token bill crept up every month until finance started asking questions."
We treat cost as a design problem: route each job to the cheapest capable model, cache repeated work, and set hard spend limits and alerts, so the spend stays predictable and tied to real value.
"We plugged in the API, but on our messy data the results were unusable."
The model is rarely the problem; the data is. We do the unglamorous work of preparing and structuring the content it draws on first, which is what turns a disappointing demo into a dependable feature.
"We built everything around one provider, then their price and terms changed."
We keep your integration model-agnostic behind a gateway, so switching between GPT, Claude or an open-source model is a config change, not a rebuild. You are never held to one vendor's pricing.
"Our LLM pilot demoed brilliantly and then never made it into the actual product."
We are engineers, not demo-makers. We plan the integration, evaluation, cost controls and support from day one, so the model reaches production and stays there, where the value actually is.
"Nobody was watching it, so it quietly got worse and we only found out from a customer."
We log and monitor every deployment for accuracy drift and cost creep, and keep it tuned as your data and the models change. An LLM feature is a product to maintain, not a script to forget.
Had an LLM project stall or overspend before? Tell us what went wrong, and we'll show you the difference.

Why choose Avaib for your LLM integration.
Most providers can offer one or two of these. Our whole model is built to give you all of them at once.
Software engineers first
We build and run production software for a living, so your LLM feature is integrated, tested and supported, not a clever prototype that stalls before it reaches your users.
Model-agnostic, no product to push
We do not resell a particular AI platform, so our advice on GPT versus Claude versus open-source is genuinely impartial: the right model for your job and your budget, not ours.
Grounded, not guessing
We ground every integration in your own data with retrieval-augmented generation, so answers are accurate and specific to your business. That is the difference between a useful feature and a risky one.
Cost engineered in
We design for predictable spend from the start: cheapest capable model per job, caching, and hard limits, so the value is not swallowed by a runaway token bill.
Senior expertise, without the premium price tag
The same capability Australian, US, Canadian and Middle-East firms charge a fortune for, delivered by senior engineers from around USD 25 per hour. One Canadian client cut their build investment by roughly 75% against local quotes and still received the same high-quality solution, backed by a 30-day warranty.
AI-accelerated delivery
Our senior engineers work alongside modern AI coding tools in a disciplined, professional way to build your integration faster, directing the tools and reviewing every line, so you get quicker delivery at the same quality bar and a lower project cost, never cut corners.
You own it outright
You own the code, your data stays yours, and the setup stays portable, so you keep full control of the models, the prompts and the pipeline with no lock-in.
Supported, not abandoned
We monitor and improve the integration after launch with a 30-day post-launch warranty and one accountable team, so it keeps getting better instead of going stale.

A clear path from idea to a model in production.
From picking the right model and readying your data to a tested, monitored integration live in your product, with no fragile demos.
Pin down the use case & model
We define exactly what the model should do and what a good result looks like, then choose the right model, GPT, Claude or open-source, for that job and your budget.
Ready your data
We gather and structure the content the model will draw on, from documents to records to knowledge, the step that quietly makes or breaks the accuracy of the whole thing.
Build & ground it
We wire the model into your systems, ground it in your data with RAG, and put cost controls, caching and spend limits in place from the start.
Evaluate & guardrail
We test it against the real inputs it will face, add guardrails and any human-review step, and only sign off once it behaves dependably, not just in a demo.
Deploy & monitor
We put it into production and stay on to watch accuracy and cost, catch drift, and keep improving it as your data and the models themselves change.

Common questions
LLM integration, answered.
What is LLM integration?
LLM integration is the work of connecting a large language model, such as OpenAI's GPT or Anthropic's Claude, into your software, data and workflows so it does useful work inside your business. Rather than staff copying and pasting into a public chatbot, the model is wired directly into your systems: drafting text, searching your documents, summarising long material, pulling structured data out of messy text, or powering an assistant inside the app you already run.
In practice, good LLM integration is far less about the model and more about the engineering around it: choosing the right model for each job, grounding it in your own data so answers are accurate, keeping token costs under control, adding guardrails and evaluation, and monitoring it after launch. That discipline is exactly what Avaib brings, drawing on more than 600 projects delivered since 2004.
Should we use OpenAI's GPT, Anthropic's Claude, or an open-source model?
It depends on the job. GPT and Claude each have real strengths and quite different pricing, and for some tasks a smaller open-source model you run yourself is cheaper and keeps data fully in-house. Because we have no product to resell, we pick the right model per use case rather than marrying you to one provider.
We also keep the integration model-agnostic behind a gateway, so moving between GPT, Claude or an open-source model later is a configuration change rather than a rebuild. You are never locked into one vendor's pricing or terms.
How do you stop the model from making things up?
This is the most important part of a trustworthy integration, and the reason we use retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). Instead of relying on what a model happens to know, we connect it to your own documents and records and have it answer from those, with references back to the source. That keeps answers specific to your business and dramatically reduces the confident, made-up responses that create risk.
For anything high-stakes we go further, adding guardrails on what the model will attempt and a human-review step so a person approves before a risky action is taken.
How do we keep the cost of running an LLM under control?
Token spend can climb quietly if nobody designs for it, which is why we treat cost as an engineering problem from the start. We route each job to the cheapest model that does it well, cache repeated work so you are not paying twice for the same answer, and set hard spend limits and alerts.
That way the value stays tied to real business outcomes rather than a surprise bill, and you get clear visibility of what the integration is costing and why.
Can you connect an LLM to our own data and systems?
Yes, and that is the core of what makes an integration valuable rather than a novelty. We connect the model to your documents, database, CRM, helpdesk or internal tools through their APIs, and ground it in your content with RAG so it works from your real information.
Because we are a software company first, if a ready-made connector does not exist, our engineers build the bridge, so the integration fits the tools you already run instead of forcing you onto something new.
Is our data safe, and do we stay compliant?
Responsible handling is part of every engagement, not an afterthought. We advise on where your data goes, keep sensitive information in-house where that is required, and can run open-source models in your own environment for the strictest cases. We factor in the privacy, security and audit requirements your sector expects.
For regulated industries like healthcare and finance we go further, designing the integration around the specific data-handling and record-keeping obligations you have to meet.
How much does LLM integration cost?
It depends on scope. A focused feature like document search or a drafting tool is a small, fixed engagement, while integrating LLMs across several workflows and systems is larger. Avaib's model is senior engineering at a cost-effective rate, typically around USD 25 per hour, which is why businesses in Australia, the US, Canada and the Middle East work with us instead of paying big-firm prices. One Canadian client cut their build investment by roughly 75% against local quotes and still received the same high-quality solution, backed by a 30-day warranty.
There are two costs to plan for: the build, and the ongoing token spend to run the model, and we help you keep both predictable. Tell us what you want the model to do, and we'll send a free, no-obligation written estimate with a clear scope and a ballpark price.
What happens after the integration goes live?
An LLM feature is a product to maintain, not a project to finish and forget. We stay on to monitor accuracy and cost, catch drift as your data and the models change, and keep tuning it so it stays dependable.
You get one accountable team for the whole journey, from the first version through to ongoing improvement, with a 30-day post-launch warranty on the work we deliver.
