What's viai.club?

VIAI's an AI helper for doing business in the US Virgin Islands. Ask in plain English — "where do I file an LLC", "what's the EDC tax program", "are there hiring grants" — and get back a sourced answer.

Built and maintained by spw1, hosted right here in the islands. Free to use. No accounts. No tracking.

How it works

VIAI reads from a curated knowledge base of authoritative USVI documents — government bulletins, EDC program pages, license guides, official FAQ. When you ask a question, it pulls the relevant snippets and writes a plain-English answer that cites every source it used.

The model behind the answer is large-language-model AI (Llama 3.3 70B served by Groq, with local Ollama as a fallback). The retrieval layer is the Kevin platform's RagRouter.

What it isn't

• Not legal advice. For binding decisions, talk to an attorney.
• Not financial or tax advice. Talk to a CPA.
• Not a replacement for the relevant agency. When the answer says "file at DLCA", you still have to go file at DLCA.
• Not always right. If something looks off, click the source link and check.

Sources we read

VIAI's knowledge base is sourced from publicly-available, authoritative outlets:

• USVI government portals (vi.gov, agency subdomains)
• USVI Economic Development Authority (usvieda.org)
• USVI Department of Licensing & Consumer Affairs (dlca.vi.gov)
• USVI Bureau of Economic Research (usviber.org)
• SBA Virgin Islands District Office
• University of the Virgin Islands research + entrepreneurship

Source list grows as the project grows. Got a public document VIAI should know about? Send it our way.
