FDE program

Build sovereign A.I. for your clients. Become an FDE on Emblema.

FDEs (forward-deployed engineers) bring Emblema into companies: they understand the problem, build the solution and install it on the client's own servers.

Who is an FDE

The person who turns A.I. into a project that works.

An FDE works next to the client, not behind a ticket. It can be one person or a studio: what matters is understanding a process and delivering a solution that improves it.

Developer and integrator

Connects Emblema to the systems the client already runs and writes the missing nodes.

  • Workflows over documents and data
  • Integrations with ERP and business software
  • Python and TypeScript nodes

A.I. creative

Produces images, video, audio and 3D with Emblema's generative models, without sending anything out.

  • Brand content pipelines
  • Video and voice for training
  • 3D assets for catalogues

Studio or consultancy

Serves several clients with a team, reusing its own templates from one project to the next.

  • Vertical solutions by industry
  • Multi-department projects
  • Support and maintenance
The work

The problems an FDE solves.

  1. Documents nobody can find

    Contracts, procedures and archives become a knowledge base you can question, with sources cited.

  2. Repetitive work

    Reports, minutes, forms and checks that take hours every week become flows that start with one click.

  3. Slow answers

    Questions from clients and colleagues get a first answer drafted from the company's own documents.

  4. Data that cannot leave

    Where the cloud is not an option, A.I. runs on the client's servers, even with no internet connection.

Why Emblema

Less infrastructure to run, more projects to deliver.

  • One platform, installed once

    Emblema runs on the client's servers. You build the solution, not the stack.

  • Templates you reuse

    Every solution is a Workspace template: adapt it for the next client instead of starting over.

  • Compliance included

    Audit, permissions and traceability are built in, so you can sell to clients regulated by the A.I. Act.

  • Models ready to use

    LLMs, document search, image, video, voice and 3D, all running locally.

  • A marketplace for your work

    Publish your templates and nodes and get found by businesses and other FDEs.

  • A community of peers

    Pricing, contracts, second opinions: in the FDE-only lounge on Discord.

Delivery

How you deliver a project.

The same path for every client: from the first meeting to a solution running in their offices.

  1. 01

    Discovery

    Understand the process, the data and the constraints: cloud or on-prem, languages, existing systems.

    Proposal and estimate
  2. 02

    Prototype

    Build the solution in Workspace and test it on the client's real documents.

    Workspace template
  3. 03

    Installation

    Production environment
  4. 04

    Growth

    Train users, measure results and add new flows over time.

    Maintenance contract
The model

The client pays for two things, separately.

Emblema sells the platform as a subscription. The project is yours: the client pays you for your professional work.

To Emblema

The platform

  • Emblema subscription (SaaS)
  • Updates and new models
  • Platform support
To you

Your work

  • Consulting and analysis
  • Development and integration
  • Installation, training and maintenance

You set your own rates, contracts and quotes with the client.
