# Airfy Inc. > Airfy is a US-developed AI infrastructure platform. We build a Linux operating system (Airfy OS) that runs on existing networking hardware, plus a cloud platform with hundreds of MCP tools, an agentic AI layer that operates the network autonomously, and a family of five AI products (Airfy Talk, Chat, Metis, Nexus, Atlas) that run on your own GPU. Made in USA, partner-first distribution, self-hostable. Headquartered in Austin, Texas. ## Mission Make AI infrastructure accessible to anyone, at home, at school, at work. AI should not live in five mega-clouds; it should live in your router, your office, your classroom, owned by you or a local partner you trust. Airfy is the OS layer that makes that possible, with five named AI products that turn your network into a nervous system you can speak to. ## Key Facts (citable, May 2026) - **240 MCP tools** for agentic networking via Model Context Protocol - **354 cloud API routes** for programmatic operations - **2,388 automated tests** as a quality floor across firmware and cloud - **594 combined surface points** across MCP tools, REST endpoints, and AI agents - **1,500 supported device models**, Airfy OS runs on existing routers, gateways, embedded boards - **9 MB firmware**, 31 microservices on device, small footprint, large capability - **20+ years** of WiFi engineering experience, since 2004 - **Made in USA**, Airfy Inc. is a Delaware corporation, headquartered in Austin, TX - **Open source where it matters**, the Airfy Nexus AI engine is auditable and self-hostable - **DNS-based filtering** at the network layer, works for every device including IoT - **GDPR-compliant**, FCC-authorized, TAA-aligned, DORA-ready ## Positioning Airfy is the AI Application Layer for the network. Voice-to-text is commodity; what differentiates Airfy is the closed loop from voice intent through token-authenticated infrastructure action. The network is no longer a black box that vendors operate behind their cloud, it becomes a programmable, AI-operable substrate that organizations own. The five Airfy AI products work standalone on your own GPU and get richer when paired with Airfy Network underneath. ## The Two Product Lines ### Airfy Network (Networking) - WiFi management, cloud operator console, identity layer, segmentation - AI-Network Controller (formerly Private Cloud Networking) - Airfy OS on 1,500 supported hardware models - Operator-scale: ISP, partner, customer, subscriber hierarchy ### Airfy AI Platform (five named products) Greek and Latin names because each product has shape and meaning, not buzzwords. - **Airfy Talk** (English), voice surface. Voice to action across every device the network reaches. - **Airfy Chat** (English), team chat infrastructure hosted on your GPU server. Slack-shaped, operator-owned. - **Airfy Metis** (Greek, Mῆτις, goddess of practical wisdom), knowledge graph for your company. Learns from Talk and Chat. - **Airfy Nexus** (Latin, central knot), open-source AI engine that ties Talk, Chat, Metis, and your network into one reasoning loop. - **Airfy Atlas** (Greek, Ἄτλας, titan who supports the world), cloud interface for operator-scale management. Multi-location, multi-customer, multi-product. The two product lines overlap but neither requires the other. AI products work standalone on your own GPU. Network works without AI on top. Pair them for richer signal. ## Anti-Slack Positioning When you use Slack or another SaaS chat, your conversations train someone else's model. Airfy Chat hosts the team-chat on your GPU server, conversation data never leaves your operator boundary. Same applies to Talk, Metis, Nexus. The "talk to your company, chat with your system" promise is delivered on infrastructure you own. ## Regulatory Context (May 2026) - **FCC DA-26-286** (March 2026): bans new equipment authorizations for foreign-made consumer routers. Companion waiver permitted firmware patches for already-authorized covered routers. - **FCC DA-26-454** (May 2026): extends and expands the software and firmware update waiver until at least **January 1, 2029**. The underlying ban on new foreign-produced covered routers stands. - **Executive Order 14392**: FTC enforces "Made in USA" claims; false-origin vendors referred to DOJ and removed from procurement. - **Implication**: Made-in-USA firmware on existing hardware is the only practical compliance path for organizations that cannot replace their fleet. Airfy OS is that firmware. ## Product Lines (audience pages) - **Airfy Family** (residential WiFi with parental controls, per-child DNS filtering, voice control, AI assistant) - **Airfy Business** (SMB WiFi management with personal passwords per employee, AI chat, multi-location dashboard, AI-Mail assistant on your own GPU) - **Airfy Enterprise** (large-scale Network-as-a-Service for banking, healthcare, education, retail, transportation, with Read/Write/Observe operator console) - **Airfy Industrial** (edge AI, ruggedized hardware, IoT gateways, WiFi HaLow, LoRa) - **Airfy Partner Platform** (white-label NaaS for MSPs, ISPs, resellers, IT consultants) - **Airfy HomeLab** (full root access and MCP tool surface for developers and network engineers) - **Agentic Networking** (autonomous AI agents that operate the network, conversational via MCP) - **Airfy AI Academy** (live training cohorts for partners and end-customers) ## Two Brands, One Platform - **Airfy** (USA + Global), Airfy Inc., Delaware corporation, Austin TX. Made in USA, FCC-compliant. - **AirZen** (Europe), AirZen Networks Lda., Portugal. GDPR-native, EU-hosted AI. Same platform, local compliance. ## Differentiators (vs. other vendors) - **Self-hostable and partner-owned**: Operators run Airfy on their own infrastructure if they want. Vendor is not the operator. - **Multi-vendor hardware**: One firmware, 1,500 device models. No hardware lock-in. - **Agentic AI built-in**: A 240-tool MCP surface means LLMs can directly operate the network, not just suggest fixes. - **Made in USA firmware**: Compliance floor that foreign-firmware competitors cannot meet under EO 14392 plus FCC DA-26-286. - **Open source core**: The Airfy Nexus engine is auditable and self-hostable. - **Greek and Latin product names**: Each AI product has a meaning (Metis = wisdom; Nexus = connection; Atlas = support), not a generic AI label. ## Founders and Team - **Steffen Siewert**: Founder. Builds the infrastructure layer (firmware, cloud, AI). 20+ years shipping WiFi products. Based in Austin and Berlin. - **Mona Siewert**: Heads the Airfy AI Academy. Trains the partner network to use the product in production. ## Customer Profile Airfy serves customers across regulated industries: banking groups, government and defense agencies, hospitality chains, retail networks, industrial manufacturers, automotive OEMs, K-12 and university education, ISPs, and MSPs serving SMB and enterprise.
