Important: Hal9 enables startup founders to launch their AI-powered product in 30 days. Hal9’s startup plan includes Hal9 Onboarding (design, development, infrastructure, and maintenance) and our Hal9 Platform (compute, storage, llms) starting at $2K / month. Hal9 Onboarding is capped by hours per month and Hal9 Platform capped by compute seconds per month. Details at hal9.com/plans. Inspired on this data strategy post, we used generative AI to create a Lego set for your data infrastructure: We then asked a Lego artist to help us design a data server with real parts and instructions for you to download for free:hal9.com/lego/hal9-lego-data-strategy.pdf We also made this model available for you to purchase from BrickLink and should be purchasable for about $43 USD: Wishing you all the best in 2024 to you, your family and your data journey! -- The Hal9 Team |
