Structuring AI deployment across an industrial group

AI Crafters deployed CraftOS at Smardt, working with its partner ASN. The platform uses Claude via API for business agents, with internal-system connectors, data pipelines and shared governance.

The challenge

Smardt needed to centralise its teams’ AI use, control data access and connect agents to the group’s systems. The project brings these needs together in a shared platform hosted on infrastructure controlled by Smardt.

The solution

Claude integrated into CraftOS

Claude is used primarily via API in business agents. CraftOS orchestrates exchanges between the model, authorised knowledge, tools and Smardt applications.

Development and connectors

AI Crafters develops the platform code, custom agents and integrations. API and MCP connectors link selected systems according to user permissions.

Data pipelines

Business documents and data are ingested, processed and indexed. Document retrieval and knowledge updates provide agents with relevant context for their responses.

Data governance

Classification, masking, routing and blocking govern model calls. The local control layer applies policies before authorised data is sent to the APIs.

Access and permissions

SSO, roles, department access and agent permissions define which resources each user can access.

Audit and consumption

Audit logs, usage monitoring, quotas and consumption tracking by user, model and department give Smardt visibility into AI activity.
