Comparison with ChatGPT

SynthGrid differs from ChatGPT in four key areas:

  1. Quality Focus: We focus on providing the absolute highest quality of output. Our bias is strongly towards quality over cost minimization.

  2. Proactive Agentic Platform: While ChatGPT can be configured to use tools, it remains a passive system that waits for user commands. SynthGrid is a proactive, agent-based platform. Synths are designed to run continuously in the background, monitoring business events and accomplishing tasks with a high degree of autonomy.

  3. Model Independence: SynthGrid is independent of any specific LLM provider. We allow multiple providers (like Anthropic and OpenAI) to be used within a single SynthGrid, de-risking your business against outages and technological change. ChatGPT is exclusively tied to OpenAI.

  4. Data Separation & Control: SynthGrid operates in dedicated environments with support for on-premises deployment. This provides total data isolation. None of your data is saved with MindFront or any third parties1, and it is not used to train any AI systems.

Superior Task and Chat Performance

SynthGrid uses a combination of the latest research, proprietary techniques and best practices to produce better output than ChatGPT for identical prompts.

At this time, there is unanimous agreement amongst our Exploratory Customers that the performance and ability of our Synths greatly exceeds ChatGPT.2

MindFront does not operate or create our own LLMs, and there is no secret technological breakthrough here - just consistently applied, excellent engineering at both the system and prompt level handling.

Proactivity

The most fundamental difference between SynthGrid and ChatGPT is that SynthGrid is proactive.

This means that, your SynthGrid is always running in the background, ready to perform tasks and operations on its own, proceeding as far as it can before requiring user input. Synths have already understood and worked with your business context, instead of needing to process things manually.

SynthGrid’s Architecture is built to support this kind of workflow from the ground up.

Offline and On-Premises Deployment

Each SynthGrid operates either on-premises or on virtual server provisioned exclusively for your company.

MindFront does not store, process or train data on your business information, as it is resident on your SynthGrid server.

Given our vertically integrated architecture, SynthGrid has the possibility to run entirely offline using your own hardware and compute capacity to operate local LLMs. This is not a configuration we advise for most Businesses, but can be accommodated for cases where legal, practical or ethical considerations necessitate total data isolation.

Enterprise Focused

SynthGrid is built from the ground up around integrating into your existing companies systems and leveraging your existing data through AI.

Many of our features are ahead of ChatGPT in terms of business usage, development, along with a wide suite of business-focused integrations.

  1. Data may be submitted to LLM provider APIs, but these APIs do not generally persist any of your business data for training or analysis. MindFront can use region-specific deployments of LLMs via Azure and AWS to comply with data management regulations, or operate SynthGrid entirely offline via local models if necessary. ↩︎

  2. This is reported by our users. Comparisons are typically performed against ChatGPT using the GPT-4 model, using identical prompts into both systems. ↩︎
