How much does a private AI computer cost in Australia?

Prices below are our starting prices in Australian dollars, including GST, as at October 2026. They change with the computer parts market, so every system is quoted on the day. Check our builds page for current prices.

Our starting prices

• Standard, from $6,400. Two RTX 5060 Ti 16GB graphics cards, for 32 GB of model memory. The best-value way in for small offices.
• Plus, from $15,400. One RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell card with 32 GB of error-correcting memory. The same model memory as the Standard on one card, with a simpler build and lower power use.
• Workstation, from $19,950. One RTX 5090 card with 32 GB. It should start answers sooner and slow down less when several people ask at once, though results depend on the model and your documents.
• Performance, from $25,000. RTX PRO 5000 Blackwell with 48 GB, aimed at larger teams and bigger models.
• Enterprise, from $49,300. RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell with 96 GB, for the biggest models we build and firms with large document libraries.

What drives the price

• Graphics card memory. This is the biggest factor. More memory means a larger model, longer documents and more people at once.
• How many people use it. We size the build to your team and test it with several people asking questions together before handover.
• Customising. Case, colours, lighting and part brands can be changed, subject to availability.
• The parts market. Graphics card prices move, which is why a written quote is what counts.

What it is, and is not, included

• It is a one-off purchase with no subscription for the AI.
• We build, test and set it up, and walk your team through it at handover.
• Ongoing support or backup is not included unless we agree on it in writing. Your consumer guarantee rights under Australian law still apply.
• The computer uses electricity and has to be left on for your team to use it.

How payment works

When you accept a quote you pay a prepayment of 50% to 70% of the price, depending on the build, and the balance before handover. If you cancel before we order parts, you get the whole prepayment back. The full table is on the builds page.

An example comparison with paying per person

Cloud AI tools are usually priced per person per month. As an example only, and not a quote for any product: if a tool cost $30 per person per month and 10 people used it, that would be $3,600 a year. A one-off purchase has a very different shape, because you pay once rather than every month. The two do different jobs, though, so this is a comparison of cost, not a claim that one replaces the other. See Private AI vs ChatGPT.
