Private LLM Growth Expected as Enterprises Shift GenAI From Experiments to Secure, Domain-Specific Systems

LLM.co Expands Private, Custom LLM Offering as Enterprise AI Spending and Adoption Accelerate

Seattle, Washington, United States, January 31, 2026 — Private, custom large language models (LLMs) are rapidly becoming core enterprise infrastructure as organizations push generative AI into production while seeking to retain control over sensitive data, intellectual property, and regulatory exposure.

According to Gartner, worldwide artificial intelligence spending is projected to reach $2.52 trillion in 2026, representing year-over-year growth of more than 40 percent, with enterprise infrastructure and custom deployments accounting for a significant share of new investment. Separately, International Data Corporation (IDC) estimates organizations will spend over $370 billion on generative AI implementation between 2024 and 2027, signaling a multi-year capital shift toward operational AI systems rather than experimental tools.

At the usage level, McKinsey & Company reports that more than 70 percent of organizations are now regularly using generative AI, up from roughly one-third just two years earlier—placing growing pressure on companies to address data security, compliance, and performance reliability at scale.

In response to these market dynamics, LLM.co today announced an expanded suite of private, custom LLM solutions designed for enterprises that want the productivity gains of generative AI without exposing proprietary data or relying on unmanaged public endpoints.

Why private LLMs are accelerating

Enterprise adoption is no longer constrained by curiosity—it is constrained by risk.

Gartner forecasts global generative AI spending alone will exceed $600 billion annually by 2025, while IBM research indicates that more than 40 percent of large enterprises have already deployed AI in active production environments, with another 40 percent in advanced testing phases.

At the same time, industry security assessments consistently show that most enterprise AI systems lack sufficient isolation, monitoring, or governance controls—making sensitive data exposure a primary executive concern as usage expands.

“Organizations aren’t pulling back from AI—they’re getting more selective about how it’s deployed,” said Samuel Edwards, Chief Marketing Officer at LLM.co. “The dominant pattern we’re seeing is a shift away from generic public models toward private, domain-trained systems that align with real business risk.”

What LLM.co delivers

LLM.co designs and deploys private LLM systems built for production environments, including:

• Private and controlled deployments aligned to internal security and compliance requirements
• Domain-specific model customization to improve accuracy and reduce hallucinations
• Enterprise knowledge integration using retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)
• Governance and audit controls for permissioning, logging, and policy enforcement
• Ongoing evaluation and monitoring to ensure long-term performance stability

“Most enterprises don’t need more demos—they need AI systems that can actually operate inside regulated, data-sensitive workflows,” said Timothy Carter, Chief Revenue Officer at LLM.co. “Private LLM architectures are becoming the default path for serious adoption.”

Market signal: customization is becoming mainstream

Even major analysts now treat specialization as inevitable. Gartner has formally separated spending on general-purpose generative models from specialized enterprise models, projecting double-digit annual growth in domain-specific AI systems as organizations seek tighter control and higher reliability.

Meanwhile, large-scale infrastructure investment continues to accelerate. According to Reuters industry reporting, global investment in AI compute and data center capacity has reached record levels as demand for private model deployment increases across financial services, legal, healthcare, manufacturing, and cybersecurity sectors.
