Build vs. Buy: Why Enterprises Choose QuaerisAI
Why Enterprises Choose QuaerisAI
Every enterprise leader is asking the same question in 2025:
Should we build our own Generative AI platform, or should we buy one that’s ready to go?
On paper, building sounds tempting—total control, custom fit, and the illusion of cost savings. But in reality? Building your own GenAI platform is a slow, expensive, risky path.
That’s why companies across industries are turning to QuaerisAI—a proven, enterprise-ready GenAI analytics platform that delivers speed, security, and scalability without the headaches of DIY development.
The Features Every GenAI Platform Should Deliver
Before choosing "build" or "buy," it's critical to define what a mature GenAI platform really needs. These aren’t “nice to haves.” They’re the baseline requirements for any GenAI platform that claims to be enterprise-ready:
- Document Search – Search across SharePoint, Google Drive, Box, and more—while respecting folder-level security.
- Structured + Unstructured Data Access – Answer questions across databases and enterprise datastores, not just docs.
- Accurate Responses – Especially for structured data—speed means nothing if the answer is wrong.
- Collaborations: For effective Collaboration within the platform users should have full access to data and docs; but in Communities, users should be able to only consume what is shared.
- Dashboards & Reporting – Insights only matter if they can be visualized, shared, and acted upon.
- Security & Compliance – Enterprise-grade governance, audit logging, and privacy controls are non-negotiable.
- Multi-Tier Agents – Future-proofed automation with agents that act on your behalf.

Why Building In-House Falls Short
Even the best-intentioned internal projects run into the same roadblocks:
- Months (or years) of development cycles before value is realized.
- Hidden costs for AI specialists, data engineers, infrastructure, and compliance.
- Ongoing maintenance burden—security patches, bug fixes, and model updates.
- Limited feature set compared to constantly innovating vendor platforms.
In short, the build path often leads to cost overruns, missed deadlines, and frustrated stakeholders.
