Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about deploying and managing your own AI infrastructure.
How is LaravelGPT different from ChatGPT Plus or ChatGPT Enterprise?
ChatGPT Plus and Enterprise are still cloud-hosted services where OpenAI controls your data and infrastructure. LaravelGPT is completely self-hosted - you deploy it on your own servers, in your own cloud account, or on-premises. This means absolute control over data privacy, compliance, customization, and costs. You're not dependent on OpenAI's uptime, pricing changes, or policy decisions.
Can I use OpenAI's models with LaravelGPT?
Yes! LaravelGPT supports OpenAI's API, so you can use GPT-4, GPT-4 Turbo, or GPT-3.5 while maintaining control over your interface, user management, and conversation data. You can also seamlessly switch to Anthropic's Claude, open-source models like Llama or Mistral, or run models entirely offline.
What infrastructure do I need to run LaravelGPT?
For basic deployment, you need a Linux server with 4GB RAM and 20GB storage - this can run on AWS, DigitalOcean, or your own hardware. For production deployments with local model hosting, we recommend GPU-enabled servers (NVIDIA A100 or similar). LaravelGPT includes Docker Compose files for easy deployment and Kubernetes configurations for enterprise scale.
Is LaravelGPT compliant with HIPAA, GDPR, and SOC 2?
LaravelGPT provides the technical controls needed for compliance - encryption at rest and in transit, audit logging, access controls, and data isolation. However, compliance is a organizational responsibility. When you self-host LaravelGPT in your compliant infrastructure, you maintain the compliance posture you've already established. We provide documentation and architecture guidance for common compliance frameworks.
Can I customize the UI and branding?
Absolutely. LaravelGPT is open-source with a fully customizable Vue.js frontend. Change colors, logos, layouts, or rebuild the entire interface. You can white-label it completely for your organization or clients. The API-first architecture means you can even build entirely custom frontends while using LaravelGPT's backend.
How do knowledge bases and document uploads work?
LaravelGPT includes a built-in vector database (using Qdrant or Weaviate) for semantic search over your documents. Upload PDFs, Word docs, spreadsheets, or code repositories, and LaravelGPT automatically chunks, embeds, and indexes them. When users ask questions, relevant context is retrieved and provided to the AI model. All document processing happens on your infrastructure - nothing is sent to external services.
What kind of usage analytics and monitoring do I get?
LaravelGPT includes comprehensive analytics: per-user usage metrics, conversation length and complexity, model performance benchmarks, token consumption tracking, and cost analysis. The admin dashboard provides real-time monitoring of active sessions, API usage, and system health. All metrics can be exported to your existing monitoring stack via Prometheus endpoints.
How are updates and security patches handled?
LaravelGPT follows semantic versioning with regular releases. Updates are deployed through Docker image pulls or Kubernetes rolling updates with zero downtime. Security patches are released immediately when vulnerabilities are discovered. The self-hosted model means you control when and how to update - no forced changes or deprecations that break your workflows.
