What Edge AI & Private Inference for Enterprise covers

A comprehensive guide to running AI models on employee devices, in the browser, and on-premises. Covers WebGPU, quantisation, vLLM, hybrid architectures, and privacy-preserving patterns for regulated industries.

This course is designed for professionals who need to move from AI curiosity to useful implementation. The lessons focus on the workflows, risks, data requirements, governance questions, and ROI arguments that teams need before putting AI into production.

Each module is written as a working guide rather than a theory note. You can read it end to end, share individual lessons with colleagues, or use the module sequence as the outline for an internal workshop.

What you’ll learn

Browser AI
Run Gemma 4 E2B in a browser tab via WebGPU with zero server costs
Quantisation
GPTQ, AWQ, GGUF and how to fit models on any hardware
On-device deployment
MacOS Metal, iOS CoreML, Android MediaPipe, Windows CUDA
Hybrid architectures
Route simple queries locally, complex queries to cloud with PII sanitisation
Privacy patterns
The gateway, federated RAG, and compliance mapping for GDPR/HIPAA/ITAR
Offline-first AI
Serving the 80% of workers without reliable internet

Outcomes

  • Explain where AI can help your team, and where it can’t, without overstating what the technology can do.

  • Identify the data, privacy, workflow, and governance constraints that determine whether an AI use case is ready for production.

  • Build a clear business case using operational metrics, implementation costs, and measurable outcomes.

  • Create a practical next-step plan that connects the course material to a pilot, internal training session, or stakeholder discussion.
