100-word summary
StorageChain's new Bring Your Own Cloud tool lets companies run AI search across Amazon S3 and other storage platforms without moving data into a single vendor's system. The company claims 80% cost savings versus centralized setups from OpenAI, Amazon, or Google. Your files stay put. The AI layer sits on top, searching across whichever clouds you already use. It's a bet that enterprises care more about keeping data where it lives than picking the fanciest model host. The catch? Beyond S3, StorageChain hasn't named which other storage systems work yet.
