## Summary
|
||
|
||
KVARK is Egzakta Group's sovereign enterprise AI platform, deployed on-premises or in private clouds for regulated markets that cannot use US-based cloud AI. It serves as the enterprise monetization endpoint for Waggle OS, a freemium demand-generation SaaS product with persistent memory capabilities. As of early 2026, KVARK has EUR 1.2M in contracted revenue across 3–4 early-stage clients and represents the core of Egzakta's EUR 46M revenue budget for 2026.
|

|
||
## Key Facts
|
||
|
||
**Product & Architecture**
|
||
- Everything Waggle OS does, deployed on your infrastructure with full data governance and audit trails ([Frame #787](source://frame/787))
|
||
- Fully on-premises AI without cloud dependencies; enables sovereign deployment required by CEE/SEE regulated markets (banking, utilities, government) ([Frame #792](source://frame/792), [Frame #907](source://frame/907))
|
||
- Full Microsoft 365 integration, EU AI Act compliance by default, custom model pools, complete audit trail ([Frame #790](source://frame/790))
|
||
- Tech stack: Qwen inference (vLLM), LiteLLM proxy, Qdrant vector database, enterprise connectors, BPMN orchestration ([Frame #907](source://frame/907))
|
||
|
||
**Revenue & Commercials**
|
||
- EUR 1.2M in contracted revenue as of April 2026 ([Frame #788](source://frame/788))
|
||
- Business model: Waggle OS is freemium SaaS (demand generation) → KVARK is enterprise consultative sale ([Frame #793](source://frame/793))
|
||
- ACV EUR 97–420K; 74% consolidated margin; 70% recurring revenue ([Frame #882](source://frame/882))
|
||
- 4 paying clients as of early 2026, 7 budgeted for 2026 ([Frame #882](source://frame/882))
|
||
|
||
**Hardware & Infrastructure**
|
||
- LM TEK is the hardware arm providing GPU infrastructure (liquid-cooled servers, EK Fluid Works brand) ([Frame #792](source://frame/792))
|
||
- Boston Limited channel partner for NVIDIA relationships ([Frame #907](source://frame/907))
|
||
|
||
**Waggle → KVARK Flywheel**
|
||
- Waggle harvests AI memory from 20+ platforms for free, creating user dependency ([Frame #907](source://frame/907))
|
||
- Users learn AI-native work in Waggle, then enterprises want it on their infrastructure ([Frame #788](source://frame/788))
|
||
- Teams tier ($49/seat/mo) includes KVARK connector nudges; Enterprise tier converts to consultative KVARK sales ([Frame #930](source://frame/930), [Frame #784](source://frame/784))
|
||
- Memory + Harvest are free forever in Waggle—the lock-in moat that drives KVARK pipeline ([Frame #793](source://frame/793))
|
||
|
||
**Launch Status (as of 2026-03-23)**
|
||
- V1 launch requires: code signing (SSL.com eSigner EV or Certum SimplySign), KVARK HTTP API wiring (3 core endpoints: login, me, search) ([Frame #836](source://frame/836))
|
||
- KvarkClient library exists with 30 mocked tests; real API connection not yet wired to production KVARK backend ([Frame #836](source://frame/836), [Frame #849](source://frame/849))
|
||
- Settings panel UI exists for KVARK configuration; production wiring deferred to enterprise phase ([Frame #849](source://frame/849))
|
||
|
||
**Strategic Context**
|
||
- Part of Egzakta Group's 4-layer sovereign AI deployment stack (Advisory → TubeIQ → KVARK → LM TEK infrastructure) ([Frame #882](source://frame/882))
|
||
- Regulatory moat: CEE/SEE regulated markets (banking, utilities, government) legally cannot use US cloud AI; sovereign deployment is a regulatory requirement, not a feature ([Frame #907](source://frame/907))
|
||
- Key opportunities: EPS, Yettel, AOFI, EU Horizon 2026, Clipperton Finance ([Frame #907](source://frame/907))

## Open Questions
|
||
|
||
1. **Real KVARK backend status**: API requirements are documented ([Frame #836](source://frame/836)), but what is the actual deployment status of KVARK's HTTP API endpoints? When will production KVARK backend accept Waggle client connections?
|
||
|
||
2. **Paid clients vs. contracted |
