Notes

Decisions that come up before a scope.

Short notes on the questions Australian teams ask when they are considering AI, automation, or a connector into their own systems.

  1. What is an MCP server?

    What a Model Context Protocol server actually exposes, when a custom one is worth building, and when a normal integration is the better shape.

  2. Local AI or cloud AI?

    Where the data goes, who operates the model, and how to choose between hardware you own, a managed cloud, and a public AI tool.

The services behind these notes: AI automation, custom MCPs, and private and local AI.
