The NeuralTrust SaaS control plane manages TrustGate in every deployment mode. You only install infrastructure when you choose a Private (Hybrid) data plane.

SaaS: nothing to install

In the NeuralTrust console, open TrustGate, select New Gateway, and then select SaaS. NeuralTrust provisions and operates the data plane; you can continue directly to Quickstart.

Private (Hybrid): install the data plane

Private keeps management in the NeuralTrust SaaS control plane while LLM and MCP traffic pass through a data plane in your environment.
1

Create the Private gateway

In the NeuralTrust console, select New GatewayPrivate and enter a name.
2

Choose a runtime

  • Kubernetes — recommended for production.
  • Docker — recommended for local evaluation and development.
  • Manual — for custom deployment systems.
3

Deploy and bootstrap

Follow the generated instructions to deploy the data plane. Enter one bootstrap Dataplane URL, then select Save and Finish.
4

Set service URLs

Open SettingsAgent GatewayGeneral and set or verify the separate LLM URL and MCP URL. Then return to the provider, request, and trace flow in Quickstart.
The generated Docker quick path exposes the LLM/proxy service only. Use Kubernetes or a full deployment when you need MCP.
Use the infrastructure documentation for deployment details:

Hybrid deployment

The full Private data-plane install, from architecture to high availability.

Choose a model

Compare SaaS, Hybrid, External, and a central control plane.

Configuration

Configure the services in your environment.

Secrets

Supply deployment credentials securely.

Cloud notes

EKS, AKS, GKE, and vanilla Kubernetes particularities.

Troubleshooting

Install, pod, and config-sync failures.

Advanced: open-source self-hosting

The public TrustGate repository also supports fully self-managed deployments. That path is separate from NeuralTrust console onboarding. Day-to-day product guides in these docs assume the console (SaaS or Private data plane managed from NeuralTrust). For operators running the binary yourself, see TrustGate on GitHub and the control-plane API.
