AI0-Dev
AI0-Dev is a hardware co-processor that accepts human-readable data—integers, floats, logs, NMEA-style text—from non-IoT devices. On-device classification converts that input into structured JSON with metadata, then publishes to a pre-configured SaaS dashboard over mutual TLS (mTLS) MQTT.
Each unit carries a unique cryptographic identity: a device secret and a client certificate from a device-specific CSR signed by a per-device CA. The result is true plug-and-play secure publishing—no programming on the legacy MCU, no PKI management, and no broker coordination on your side.
mTLS to the cloud. Network client, not a mini web server. Fewer small leaks to assemble.
Security that targets the mosaic
Many breaches do not start with one dramatic hole. They start with the mosaic effect: small, routine leaks—open setup pages, shared passwords, chatty unauthenticated services, identity crumbs on the LAN—that look harmless alone but combine into a clear picture of how to get in.
AI0-Dev is built to shrink that mosaic at the edge, at a practical cost, for gear that was never designed for the open Internet:
- Outbound mTLS MQTT — the device authenticates to the broker; the broker authenticates to the device.
- Client, not server — no product web UI, no remote login shell, no “log in to the box from the Internet” surface for scanners and bots.
- Per-device identity — unique secret and client certificate, pre-provisioned for consistent fleet authentication.
- Operator control — on-device policy can refuse remote firmware updates when a site needs a tighter posture.
Who it is for
Equipment manufacturers and enterprise IoT teams
Secure connectivity for equipment that was never meant for the open Internet. AI0-Dev is a bolt-on bridge for legacy controllers and sensors: certificate-based path to your operations stack, control-plane traffic on the authenticated MQTT session, and less pressure to invent a custom API or PKI for every product line.
For IT and OT, the value is pragmatic—raise the security baseline of plant, lab, and facility gear without redesigning every board, and without turning every endpoint into another web app to patch, inventory, and firewall.
Makers and individual developers
Get your project online without turning it into another leaky gadget. Attach AI0-Dev to MCU serial, USB, or SPI text output; human-readable lines become JSON on the dashboard over mTLS. No networking stack and no security code on the microcontroller.
Good for weather stations, lab benches, home automation experiments, and anything you want connected without standing up a home web server, port-forwarding a shell, or building a fortress from scratch.
