dumping money into Gemma and shorting new data center buildouts is a level of Corporate Vision that ends up in an HBS case study

LM Studio (for example) is free, can you pitch me on your USP vs. it?

easiness of install (one download), zero configuration, zero online access by design - there will never we websearch, never any kind of tracking, your prompts stay on your device - you can totally put in user data, confident contracts, ...

plus over time the harness - coming version has a hotkey for screen capture, next release will have support for native excel, docx export

there is value in being offline by design

LM Studio's tagline is literally "local AI on your computer" and has commensurate benefits, as do similar choices like Unsloth Studio and Ollama's desktop app. The differentiators you have planned sound like they'll help you establish a unique value prop. Good luck!

Gemma 4 is really a beast. The 31B version is totally usable like for cases when I'm bored without internet

I found that Gemma 4:26b makes way more mistakes compared to Qwen and Gemma 3. Gemma3 27b QAT was my goto for some time as this was quite fast. Qwen is still king for a balance of accuracy and inference speed.

Gemma:31b was more accurate but speed was horrendous.
