SOFTWARE STACK

Pre-configured. Plug in. It works.

Everything below is installed, tested, and ready before the box ships.

Sovereign Linux OS

Stable, headless operation. 5-year security support. Purpose-built for always-on AI serving.

Model serving layer — downloads, quantizes, and serves AI models via local API. Chat-style interface accessible on any browser on your network. No app required.

RigidVault Client

Local vault agent. Indexes and encrypts your files at rest. AI modules read from the vault, never from raw disk.
