SOVEREIGN STACK — PROJECT PORTFOLIO & AGENDA

Build → Sell → Scale. No resumes unless contract requires it.


P1: SOVEREIGN AI STACK

Tagline: Local-first multi-agent system. Your data, your models, your rules. Deployed in your infrastructure, not ours. Status: MVP exists, needs packaging for sale Target customer: Privacy advocates, Bitcoiners, small engineering teams, sovereign operators Price: $2,500 setup fee + $199/month support/security-update retainer + $5,000 enterprise hardening add-on Delivery: Docker Compose deploy → 90-min onboarding call → documentation → 30-day support window

Value props

  • Every component runs locally: LLM inference, agent runtime, memory, tool execution
  • No OpenAI API key required after initial model pull
  • MCP auto-discovery so new tools plug in without config edits
  • L402 micropayments if agents need to call paid APIs
  • Full audit trail + backup/restore scripts included

Whats already built

  • Sovereign AI Platform repo: MCP servers, coordinator swarm, cascade routing, FastAPI + HTMX dashboard, SQLite persistence, WebSocket feeds, 228+ tests, CI watchdog
  • stackchain: multi-user agent tracker with time-travel queries and dispatch pipeline
  • live-wizard: voice/avatar persona runtime with TTS/STT/RTMP

What needs packaging for sale

  1. Single-click installer: git clone && docker compose up
  2. README with architecture diagram, threat model, runbook
  3. Paywall/gate: public repo with limitations, premium support tier unlocks production configs
  4. Demo video: 3-minute walkthrough of local-first agent doing a real task without cloud APIs
  5. Landing page: one-column, copy + CTA + demo

First sale path

  • Post on X/Nostr/Libertarian + AI communities: "Im selling turnkey sovereign AI deployments. Local-first, Bitcoin payments, no cloud dependencies."
  • Price discovery: $2,500 is high enough to filter tire-kickers, low enough for early adopters
  • First 3 buyers get lifetime discount / advisory seat

Revenue projection

  • Conservative: 2 sales/month = $5,000/month + $398/month recurring
  • Upside: 5 sales/month = $12,500/month + $995/month recurring

P2: L402 PAYMENT PROXY

Tagline: Charge Lightning payments for any API. Drop-in replacement for API keys. Status: Prototype exists in sovereign-ai repo, needs extraction + hardening Target customer: API providers, indie hackers, LLM proxy operators, content paywalls Price: $99/month per endpoint + 1% of Lightning volume; or $3,000 flat for self-hosted license Delivery: Docker image + config + 1-hour setup + runbook

Value props

  • Any API endpoint can now accept satoshi micropayments
  • HMAC macaroon auth means no database of user tokens
  • Clients pay per request, no subscriptions, no credit cards
  • Works with nginx, Caddy, FastAPI, any HTTP backend

Whats already built

  • L402 proxy with macaroon issuance/verification
  • Lightning invoice generation and WebSocket payment confirmation
  • FastAPI integration in sovereign-ai backend

What needs packaging for sale

  1. Extract L402 proxy into standalone repo
  2. Public demo instance: hit /pay endpoint, get 402 with invoice, pay, get through
  3. Integration guide for common backends: FastAPI, Node, nginx, Caddy
  4. Monitoring dashboard showing payment volume, active caveats, revenue

First sale path

  • Post to Lightning community ( nostr, X, Telegram groups): "I built an L402 payment gateway. If you run an API and want satoshi payments, DM me."
  • Direct pitch to LLM proxy operators: "Charge per request instead of flat API key"
  • Offer first 5 customers lifetime discount + co-marketing

Revenue projection

  • 10 active endpoints × $99/month = $990/month + variable volume cut
  • If one customer hits $50K/month API volume at 1% = $500/month

P3: SOVEREIGN DEPLOYMENT KITS

Tagline: Infrastructure-as-code for people who dont want to read 30 tutorials. Status: Scripts exist ad-hoc, need packaging into tested playbooks Target customer: Developers, sovereign operators, privacy-curious non-ops people Price: $499 per kit, or $99/month for all kits + updates + private Discord Kits:

  1. Sovereign Gitea Stack — Gitea + CI/CD + HTTPS + backup in 15 minutes
  2. Lightning Node Kit — litd + L402 + monitoring + rebalancing automation
  3. Local AI Stack — Ollama + Open WebUI + MCP + sovereign dashboard
  4. Full Stack — all three above integrated

First sale path

  • GitHub releases with free partial versions (single-server only), paid unlocks multi-node
  • Bundle with P1 Sovereign AI Stack as upsell
  • Post deploy tutorials on X with link to paid kit

P4: LIVE-WIZARD PERSONA TEMPLATES

Tagline: Pre-built voice-enabled AI personas. Drop-in for Telegram, Discord, Twitch. Status: Core runtime exists, no packaged personas yet Target customer: Streamers, community managers, small business owners Price: $75150 per persona template, $499 custom persona build, $199/month managed hosting

Persona catalog

  • "The Broker" — financial/news-adjacent, calm, data-driven voice
  • "The Dungeon Master" — RPG campaign host, whimsical, memory of party/characters
  • "The Operator" — customer support voice, 24/7, routes tickets, posts to Gitea
  • "The DJ" — music host, voice-activated track requests, crowd interaction

First sale path

  • Build one demo persona, post 2-minute clip on X/TikTok/YouTube Shorts: "This is an AI streamer running on my local rig. DMs for yours."
  • Price low initially to get testimonials, then raise

P5: STACKCHAIN COMMERCIAL FORK

Tagline: Sovereign task tracker for engineering teams who hate Jira and dont trust SaaS. Status: Open-source proto exists, needs hardening + multi-tenant layer Target customer: Engineering teams 550 people, remote-first, crypto/Bitcoin adjacent Price: $50/seat/year self-hosted; $2,000 flat for on-prem enterprise with support; $500/month managed

What makes it different

  • Time-travel queries: see exactly what the team planned vs. executed at any point in history
  • Agent-native: todos can be owned/operated by autonomous sub-agents
  • Gitea-native: lives in your existing repo, no new SaaS subscription
  • Dispatch pipeline: auto-creates tickets, assigns agents, publishes results

First sale path

  • Pitch to existing Bitcoin/engineering communities first — they get the sovereignty angle
  • Offer "free for open-source teams, paid for private repos" to seed adoption

CROSS-CUTTING PRIORITIES

  1. Ship a public demo this week — sovereign-ai-stack.com or similar static page with working L402 demo
  2. Write one publishable piece — "Building an L402 Payment Proxy from Scratch" — put it on nostr, hackernoon, personal blog
  3. Talk to 5 potential buyers — not to pitch, but to understand which of these 5 products they would actually pay for
  4. Pick ONE product to lead with — likely P1 or P2. Everything else is distraction until one sells.

AGENDA THIS WEEK

  • Public repo for Sovereign AI Stack with README + demo video script
  • Extract L402 proxy into standalone repo + public demo instance
  • Draft first blog post on L402
  • Post availability on X/Nostr
  • Create Gitea project board for these 5 products
