EpicStaff

EpicStaff is a source available agent runtime for organizations that cannot send work to a hosted AI service. It runs on infrastructure the customer owns, on top of whatever large language model the customer already operates, and combines three layers: an agent orchestration runtime, a knowledge base and an audit layer. It is sold into regulated and sovereign environments, including defense, and can run entirely inside an air gapped network. The current release covers five capabilities. Agents read and write files as first class artifacts, so one agent's output becomes another's input and routing is a primitive. A graph retrieval layer over uploaded documents gives paragraph level retrieval with citations, plus an entity and relation graph for multi step questions, with the extraction model and entity types exposed in configuration. Introspective flows answer plain language questions about what they do and what they need, grounded in their current definition rather than a configuration file. Identity, organizations and role based access control are enforced at the platform layer, with LDAP, OIDC and SAML. The audit trail logs every prompt, tool call with arguments and model response against a named principal in PostgreSQL, exportable as JSON or CSV. The model adapter is the only outbound boundary. The vendor states plainly that there is no price column, because pricing is a conversation. Community is free, source available and self hosted, with no feature gating. Enterprise adds single sign on, compliance support for audits, indemnity, vendor of record status and support backed by a service level agreement. Defence adds dedicated deployment engineering, classification handling hooks and an on premises partner supported deployment. The site describes an evaluation phase of 8 to 12 weeks, with license specifics agreed at onboarding. EpicStaff is built and supported by HYS Enterprise, a Dutch company.
