Products
Every product runs on the same FrogNet substrate — the same mesh networking, semantic compression, local AI, and transient database. Different audiences, different environments, one platform. Consumer products fund the platform. Platform funds enterprise.
Near-term — In development
A two-box kit and a mobile app. Plug in the box. Download the app. Pair them. Done. GPS tracking, text chat, photo sharing, voice/video calls, a family bulletin board, and presence awareness — all on hardware you own. No cloud. No ads. No data harvesting. Pending network management stabilization and phone admin app completion.
2× Raspberry Pi nodes + consumer routers. Android app (native Kotlin) with GPS beacon, real-time map, chat, WebRTC voice/video, sticky notes, and custom DNS resolver for .frognet hostnames. StreamingFrog tunnel relay for remote access. iOS planned. $199 kit + $5/month portal.
Life360 hit 95.8 million monthly active users with $486M+ annual revenue — by selling family location tracking with ads and data partnerships. FrogNet Family does the same thing without selling your family's data. Your data stays on your hardware.
FrogNet Family will launch on Kickstarter as a complete two-node kit with the mobile app and tunnel relay service. Sign up at contact to be notified when the campaign goes live.
Near-term — Planned
A FrogNet node with activity sensors that learns your loved one's daily patterns through ambient sensing — motion, door openings, appliance use, room-to-room movement. Not cameras. Not wearables. Local AI builds a behavioral baseline and alerts when something breaks pattern. No data leaves the house. $249 kit + $7/month.
Elderly care services: $160.8 billion market. Projected shortage of 151,000 care workers by 2030, growing to 355,000 by 2040. FroGuardian extends human attention with local AI — not by surveilling your parent, but by knowing when something isn't right.
Near-term — Beachhead market
Full TCP/IP web applications over existing RF links. MeshCore, AREDN, LoRa, HF, satellite. Browser-based dashboards, EOC-ready. FCC Part 97/15 separation by design. $250–$400 individual / $500–$800 club. Active collaboration with EmergencyHam.net (N2DH) on the EmergencyFrog proof-of-concept.
Future — Planned
ESP32 soil, temp, humidity, light sensors aggregated by Pi Zero. Local AI interprets readings and recommends actions. Automated irrigation integration. $179 kit + $4/month.
Hardware roadmap
A 90-day hardware spinout plan exists for purpose-built FrogNet appliances — moving from Raspberry Pi development boards to production hardware designed for the mesh. This follows the same path as every successful embedded systems company: prove it on dev boards, then ship appliances.
Platform model
Ham Pack pilot + FrogNet Family Kickstarter. Tunnel broker live. Multi-continent mesh proving the architecture. Developer onboarding.
FroGuardian Kickstarter. First enterprise pilots. EmergencyHam.net deployment. Purpose-built appliances. First hire.
Home Gardener. BLDC-1 licensing. Foundation governance transition (Linux Foundation model). Enterprise contracts. Open source the platform.
