Enterprise AI: Beyond the Basics
As AI adoption moves from experimental to mission-critical, enterprises face new challenges: How do we secure sensitive data? How do we manage costs across departments? How do we ensure compliance? How do we collaborate at scale without chaos?
ARKA AI's enterprise features address these challenges with robust security, granular access controls, comprehensive token management, and collaboration tools designed for organizations that take AI seriously. This guide covers everything you need to deploy ARKA AI at enterprise scale.
Security Architecture
Multi-Layer Encryption
Your data is protected at every stage:
In Transit: TLS 1.3 encryption for all data transmission
At Rest: AES-256 encryption for stored data
In Use: Encrypted processing in memory
Key Management: HSM-backed key storage and rotation
Granular Access Controls
Role-based access control (RBAC) with fine-grained permissions:
Admin: Full platform access, user management, billing
Manager: Team oversight, usage reports, preset management
Power User: Advanced features, integrations, automation
User: Standard access to presets and AI models
Viewer: Read-only access for auditing and compliance
Compliance and Certifications
ARKA AI meets stringent compliance requirements:
SOC 2 Type II: Annual audits of security controls
GDPR: EU data protection compliance
CCPA: California privacy law compliance
HIPAA: Available for healthcare organizations (Enterprise plan)
ISO 27001: Information security management certification
Data Residency Options
Control where your data is stored and processed:
US (multiple regions)
EU (Frankfurt, Dublin)
UK (London)
Asia-Pacific (Singapore, Tokyo)
Australia (Sydney)
Comprehensive Token Management
Understanding Token Economics
Tokens are the currency of AI interactions. Understanding and managing them is crucial for cost control:
Input tokens: Your prompt to the AI
Output tokens: AI's response
Typical ratio: 1:3 to 1:5 (input:output)
Token costs vary by model: GPT-4 costs more than GPT-4o-mini
Department-Level Budgeting
Allocate tokens across teams with precision:
Set monthly token budgets per department
Auto-alerts at 50%, 75%, and 90% usage
Automatic throttling or upgrade prompts at limits
Rollover unused tokens (optional)
Real-time usage dashboards
Cost Optimization Strategies
Reduce AI costs by 60-80% with smart management:
1
Model Selection: Use GPT-4o-mini for simple tasks, reserve GPT-4/Claude for complex ones
2
Caching: ARKA AI caches common queries to avoid duplicate API calls
3
Batching: Process multiple items in single requests
4
Compression: Optimize prompts to use fewer tokens
5
Monitoring: Identify and optimize high-cost users or workflows
Advanced Usage Analytics
Detailed insights into AI consumption:
Token usage by user, team, department
Most-used presets and models
Peak usage times
Cost per department/project
ROI calculations based on time saved
Trend analysis and forecasting
Enterprise Team Collaboration
Workspace Organization
Structure your ARKA AI deployment for maximum efficiency:
Organization: Top-level entity (your company)
Workspaces: Departments or major teams
Projects: Specific initiatives or campaigns
Shared Libraries: Presets, templates, and prompts
Centralized Preset Management
Create and manage custom presets across your organization:
Develop brand-specific presets
Version control for preset updates
Share across teams or keep private
Track usage and effectiveness
Approve presets before org-wide deployment
Centralized Knowledge Base
Feed your organization's knowledge into AI:
Upload company documents, policies, and procedures
AI references this knowledge in responses
Secure, siloed access by department
Automatic updates when documents change
Version history and audit trails
SSO and User Provisioning
Single Sign-On (SSO)
Integrate with your existing identity provider:
SAML 2.0: Standard SSO protocol
OAuth 2.0: Modern authentication
Supported Providers: Okta, Azure AD, Google Workspace, OneLogin, Auth0
Just-in-Time (JIT) Provisioning: Auto-create users on first login
SCIM User Provisioning
Automatically sync users from your HR system or identity provider:
New employees auto-added to ARKA AI
Departing employees auto-removed
Role changes synced automatically
Group membership maintained
Reduces administrative overhead by 90%
Comprehensive Audit Logging
Activity Logs
Complete visibility into all platform activity:
User login/logout events
AI interactions (prompts and responses)
Preset usage and creation
Settings changes
Integration connections
Export and download activity
Log Retention and Export
Standard Retention: 90 days
Enterprise Retention: Unlimited
Export Formats: CSV, JSON, Syslog
SIEM Integration: Forward logs to Splunk, DataDog, etc.
