Subject: Transforming AnyTown from a Municipal Liability to a Global AI Asset through the Rural Infrastructure Operating System (RIOS)
Mr./Ms. City Manager,
You manage a municipality facing the same core challenge as countless others across Middle America: a critical infrastructure gap—in connectivity, energy resilience, and modern service delivery—that traditional economic models refuse to address. AnyTown, USA, is viewed by legacy infrastructure providers (ISPs, utilities) as a financial non-starter.
The proposal before you is not a grant application or a contract for a new utility; it is an invitation to engage in a paradigm shift. We are proposing to deploy the Rural Infrastructure Operating System (RIOS), a groundbreaking, self-funding, AI-native platform that will permanently solve AnyTown’s infrastructure deficits by turning your community into a high-margin, global AI compute asset.
Our commitment is to deploy the core RIOS infrastructure, leveraging our expertise and partner network, to cover an essential 15-mile diameter operational area, establishing AnyTown as a blueprint for national rural revitalization.
I. The Core Economic Engine: Global Demand Pays for Local Access
The DeReticular RIOS model is built on one financially immutable principle: Global AI Demand must pay for Local Rural Infrastructure.
The $1.25 Million Compute Anchor
The heart of the RIOS deployment in AnyTown is the establishment of a Community-Owned AI Compute Cluster. This is achieved by installing 1,000 Revofi Link Pro Commercial Edition edge computing devices across the municipality, a deployment valued at $1.25 million (fully installed by DeReticular).
These Revofi devices are not passive servers; they are an active, secure, high-performance distributed network, which we call the Trusted Compute Network. Their sole purpose is to execute high-value computational tasks for the global AI and Machine Learning industry—tasks like model training, data processing, and complex simulation.
- The Revenue Loop: Revenue generated from selling this high-demand compute capacity goes directly into a dedicated fund, providing the consistent, high-margin, non-subscription revenue stream required to fund the entire municipal infrastructure build-out and maintenance.
- The Community Dividend: We dedicate a minimum of 10% of this compute capacity directly back to AnyTown to run the RIOS itself, providing the processing power necessary for free municipal connectivity and AI-driven services.
II. The Three Interconnected Network Tiers
The RIOS architecture in AnyTown is a multi-layered, resilient system built on the principle of redundancy through diversity.
A. Tier 1: The Trusted Compute Network (Revofi & Wi-Fi 7E)
This is the secure internal network where the financial engine operates.
- Core Function: Houses the 1,000 Revofi devices.
- Technology: Uses high-throughput Wi-Fi 7E routers and industrial 10GbE switches to ensure ultra-low-latency data transfer between the Revofi units. This is critical for efficient, high-speed collaboration on intensive AI workloads.
- Security: This network is completely isolated from the public internet by Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs), ensuring maximum data integrity and security for the high-value commercial compute contracts.
B. Tier 2: The Public Access Network (Trifi Wireless & SD-WAN)
This is the high-speed access layer for residents, visitors, and municipal operations across the 15-mile diameter campus (The Trifi Wireless RIOS Campus 15 package).
- Access Points: 125 Trifi Wireless Far X Routers are deployed, utilizing their mesh capability and embedded vSIM technology. This vSIM automatically detects and connects to the strongest available signal from major national carriers, providing Multi-Carrier Redundancy and eliminating service gaps.
- Backhaul Resilience: The system leverages a dual-source backhaul managed by an SD-WAN Appliance. The primary link is through Starlink Business Kits, providing high-speed LEO satellite connectivity. If Starlink fails, the SD-WAN immediately shifts traffic to the embedded Trifi vSIM channels. This never-fail resilience is paramount for emergency services.
- Coverage: Provides full 2.4GHz & 5GHz Wi-Fi coverage for the community and is the communications layer for essential services like police, fire, and remote health telemetry.
C. Tier 3: The Ultra-Low-Power IoT Network (NeoMesh Protocol)
This is the environmental and telemetry data-gathering layer, feeding the DeReticulat AI with real-time, ground-level intelligence.
- Core Function: Collects critical, low-bandwidth data across the 15-mile area for applications like:
- Healthcare Telemetry: Remote patient monitoring for the elderly or geographically isolated.
- Agricultural Intelligence: Soil, weather, and water sensors that feed the Agra Dot Energy microgrid management system.
- Digital Experiences: Tracking and safety monitoring for guests of our partner, Digital Adventures R Us, in the wilderness areas.
- Technology: Uses NeoMesh Protocol Gateways and low-cost sensors that can operate for years on a single small battery. This ultra-low-power, self-organizing mesh network provides affordable, pervasive data collection that traditional high-power IoT solutions cannot match.
III. Anticipating Your Concerns: The Managerial Perspective
1. What is the Long-Term Cost to AnyTown?
The long-term operating cost is minimized, if not entirely covered, by the AI Compute Cluster revenue. Our goal is to shift AnyTown’s infrastructure spending from a perpetual operational expense (OpEx) to a self-funding asset. You will own a percentage of the compute cluster’s financial returns, which are mandated to cover the majority of maintenance and bandwidth costs.
2. How Does This Address Service Delivery Beyond Internet?
The RIOS is an Operating System, not just a Wi-Fi network. The data collected by the NeoMesh sensors and the Trifi network is analyzed by the DeReticulat AI to create predictive services:
- Predictive Maintenance: Data from Kurb Kars’ autonomous vehicle telemetry can inform the AI to predict which roads will fail next, shifting your Public Works department from reactive pothole filling to proactive, cost-saving maintenance.
- Optimized Energy: Data informs Agra Dot Energy’s microgrid management system, allowing for the predictive balancing of power loads, reducing waste and utility costs.
3. What is the Risk of Project Failure or Obsolescence?
Risk Mitigation is Structural:
- Technological Obsolescence: The RIOS is built on a modular design. The core value is not the specific hardware (Revofi, Trifi), but the DeReticulat AI logic that ties them together. As technology evolves (e.g., from Wi-Fi 7E to Wi-Fi 8), we can swap the edge hardware without disrupting the core economic model or the AI’s learned intelligence.
- Deployment Risk: The total cost of physical hardware and initial deployment is $2,131,500 USD. Our phased Statement of Work (SOW) ensures that we achieve milestones before subsequent funds are committed, minimizing risk exposure for the municipality. The fixed $1.25M SOW for the Revofi core is our upfront commitment to establishing the financial engine.
IV. Conclusion: An Invitation to Sovereignty
The Rural Infrastructure Operating System is not a stop-gap measure; it is the fundamental infrastructure for the next century. By embracing the RIOS, AnyTown, USA, will achieve true municipal Sovereignty: the local control of your own data, your own energy, and your own high-speed connectivity.
We are ready to proceed with the execution of the Statement of Work, making AnyTown the national model for a prosperous, resilient, and AI-powered rural future.
