Framework
The Two-Product Architecture
Consumer-friendly UX on top of a proprietary infrastructure layer. One product proves the technology, the other monetizes it at enterprise scale.
How it works
- 1Ki: Consumer and small business chat interface at $20/month. ChatGPT-style UX built on the Green Vectors backbone.
- 2Katana: Enterprise API and SDK. Proprietary data never leaves your premises. Plug directly into existing RAG pipelines.
- 3The consumer product creates social proof and market validation while the enterprise product drives revenue.
- 4Flat pricing at the consumer tier lowers barriers to adoption and creates a wide top-of-funnel.
- 5The hybrid model (Ki cloud + Katana on-premise) serves both risk-tolerant and compliance-sensitive buyers.
