Cloud AI costs are spiralling. Data sovereignty is a growing headache. And enterprises are tired of rebuilding their AI infrastructure every time workloads scale. **Dell Technologies** just answered all three problems at once — and the solution sits right on your desk.

Announced at **Dell Technologies World in Las Vegas**, the new **Dell Deskside Agentic AI** is a production-ready addition to the **Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA**, giving enterprises a local, secure, and cost-predictable way to run agentic AI — from individual workstations all the way to the data center.

## Dell Deskside Agentic AI: Key Specs

| Feature | Detail |
| --- | --- |
| Platform | Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA |
| Model Range Supported | 30 billion to 1 trillion parameters |
| Cloud Cost Reduction | Up to 87% over two years |
| Break-Even vs Cloud APIs | As little as 3 months |
| Security Layer | NVIDIA OpenShell (sandboxed runtime) |
| Multi-Agent Support | NVIDIA AI-Q 2.0 Blueprint |
| Industries Targeted | Finance, Public Sector, Manufacturing |
| OS Support | Canonical Ubuntu, Red Hat AI\ |

## Why This Launch Matters

Here’s the uncomfortable truth about cloud-only AI: as agentic workloads compound token usage, costs become unsustainable — even as token prices fall. Add data sovereignty concerns and latency issues, and cloud-only starts looking like a liability at enterprise scale.

Dell’s answer is to move intelligence closer to the data. Jeff Clarke, COO of Dell Technologies, framed it simply: the most efficient token is the one produced closest to the data — and most enterprise data isn’t in the cloud.

That’s the philosophy baked into every layer of Dell Deskside Agentic AI.

## The Three Workstation Tiers

Dell isn’t offering a one-size-fits-all box — it’s a tiered portfolio matched to real workload needs:

**Dell Pro Max with GB10** — Compact and efficient, designed for individual agent prototyping with models from 30B to 200B parameters.

**Dell Pro Precision 9** — Enterprise tower with Intel Xeon 600 processors and up to five NVIDIA RTX PRO Blackwell GPUs, handling models from 30B to 500B parameters for heavier workloads.

**Dell Pro Max with GB300** — The flagship, powered by NVIDIA’s GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra Desktop Superchip with Dell’s exclusive MaxCool technology. Built for frontier-level models from 120B up to 1 trillion parameters.

Each pairs with the **NVIDIA NemoClaw reference stack** — an open-source framework for persistent, autonomous, multi-step AI agents — and **Dell Services** for end-to-end lifecycle guidance.

## NVIDIA OpenShell: One Security Layer, Everywhere

One of the standout elements of this launch is **NVIDIA OpenShell**, now supported across the entire Dell AI Factory — from deskside workstations to Dell PowerEdge XE servers. It creates a sandboxed, governed runtime so developers can build, test, and deploy AI agents with consistent privacy and security controls, regardless of where in the stack they’re working.

Combined with **NVIDIA AI-Q 2.0 blueprint support**, enterprises get a tested, scalable foundation for multi-agent workflows covering research, decision support, and complex reasoning tasks — purpose-built for regulated industries.

Justin Boitano of NVIDIA summed it up well: enterprises can now develop locally, scale securely, and deploy on one consistent platform across the full enterprise stack.
