Already on Claude or Copilot? Put an open-source control layer in front.
Northwood routes each request to the best-fit model your policy allows, prices every call, and keeps a record you can audit, then helps move the workloads that shouldn't sit in a third-party tool into a deployment you control.
Where to draw the line between general-purpose and controlled deployment.
General-purpose AI tools are useful for broad access. Northwood focuses on the production workloads where the bill, the model choice, and the audit trail matter: high-volume inference, repeatable processes, sensitive context, and anything you need to price and prove.
What Northwood helps with
Cut the bill and keep a record of every call.
If your team already runs on an enterprise AI platform, Northwood adds an open-source control layer that routes each request to the best-fit model, prices every call, and records the reason, then helps move the workloads that need it into a deployment you own.
