Sometimes your developers need to work right next to the data. Same VPC, same subnet, same heartbeat as production.

Sounds real simple. It isn’t.

Most teams today are remote. Security policies, VPNs, zero trust, compliance frameworks… all great in theory until someone has to debug a production system or train a model on sensitive data, debug production from a moving train.

Then what?

You give them jump boxes.

Or Citrix.

Or a half-working terminal server with no IDE support, let alone AI tools.

And somehow you still expect innovation to happen there. The business needs to run; things need to be fixed.

That’s the paradox of “secure” development in 2025. We built walls to protect our systems and forgot to leave a door for our engineers.

That’s why I started Calliope AI.

A secure, AI-enhanced development platform that runs inside your own infrastructure. Cloud or on-prem, wherever your data lives. Cross-region, co-located, multi-region, who cares!

Your code and data stay inside the perimeter.

Your developers get complete tools, full flow, and full AI support.

You pick the models and even bring your own keys/agreements.

Think “VS Code/Jupyter and LLMs had a kid and raised it inside your VPC/Network.”

No more VPN roulette.

No jump server gymnastics.

No compliance hangovers.

This isn’t just AI-assisted coding.

It’s AI-assisted, compliant, co-located development and data science.

• Closer to your data.
• Closer to production.
• Without giving up control.

That’s where things are headed. We’re just making it practical and available to you, now. Sign up for a demo https://calliope.ai/
