No API costs. No server bills. No data leaving your network. That's what @ruvector/edge makes possible. -Traditional multi-agent systems suffer from: -- **Insecure communication** - Agents trust unsigned messages -- **No learning persistence** - Patterns lost between sessions -- **Centralized bottlenecks** - Single coordinator failure kills the swarm -- **Bandwidth waste** - Full vectors transferred unnecessarily +This library gives you everything you need to build distributed AI systems: cryptographic identity for each agent, encrypted communication between them, lightning-fast vector search for finding the right agent for each task, consensus protocols so your agents can coordinate without a central server, and self-learning neural networks that continuously optimize agent routing based on real-world outcomes. It's all compiled to a tiny 364KB WebAssembly binary that runs anywhere JavaScript runs. -RuVector Edge solves all of these with a unified, production-ready framework. +**The key insight:** Instead of paying cloud providers to run your AI infrastructure, you use the computing power that's already there - your users' devices. Each browser becomes a node in your swarm. The more users you have, the more powerful your system becomes - and with built-in self-learning capabilities (LoRA fine-tuning, EWC++ continual learning, ReasoningBank experience replay), your swarm gets smarter over time while still costing you nothing. -## Key Benefits +``` +┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ +│ ZERO COST SWARMS │ +├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ +│ │ +│ ┌─────────┐ ┌─────────┐ ┌─────────┐ ┌─────────┐ │ +│ │ Browser │◄────►│ Browser │◄────►│ Edge │◄────►│ Mobile │ │ +│ │ Agent A │ │ Agent B │ │ Agent C │ │ Agent D │ │ +│ └─────────┘ └─────────┘ └─────────┘ └─────────┘ │ +│ │ │ │ │ │ +│ └────────────────┴────────────────┴────────────────┘ │ +│ P2P Mesh │ +│ │ +│ Compute: FREE (runs on user devices) │ +│ Network: FREE (public relays + P2P) │ +│ Storage: FREE (distributed across nodes) │ +│ Scale: UNLIMITED (each user = new node) │ +│ │ +└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ +``` -| Benefit | Impact | -|---------|--------| -| **32x Compression** | Binary quantization reduces bandwidth by 97% | -| **O(log n) Search** | HNSW index finds nearest agents in milliseconds | -| **Quantum-Safe** | Hybrid Ed25519 + Dilithium signatures future-proof your swarm | -| **Zero Trust** | Registry-based identity verification prevents impersonation | -| **Self-Healing** | Raft consensus maintains coordination despite node failures | -| **Cross-Platform** | Same code runs native, in browsers (WASM), and on edge devices | +### What You Get -## Unique Capabilities +| Capability | Technology | Performance | +|------------|------------|-------------| +| **Agent Identity** | Ed25519 signatures | 50,000 ops/sec | +| **Encryption** | AES-256-GCM | 1 GB/sec | +| **Vector Search** | HNSW index | 150x faster than brute force | +| **Task Routing** | Semantic LSH | Sub-millisecond | +| **Trusted Consensus** | Raft protocol | For stable cohorts (teams, rooms) | +| **Open Swarm** | Gossip + CRDT | High-churn, Byzantine-tolerant | +| **Post-Quantum** | Hybrid signatures | Future-proof | +| **Neural Networks** | Spiking + STDP | Bio-inspired learning | +| **Compression** | Adaptive 4-32x | Network-aware | -| Capability | Description | Performance | -|------------|-------------|-------------| -| **HNSW Vector Index** | Hierarchical navigable small world graph for ANN search | 150x faster than brute force | -| **Hybrid Post-Quantum Signatures** | Ed25519 + Dilithium-style defense-in-depth | Quantum-resistant | -| **Spiking Neural Networks** | LIF neurons with STDP learning for temporal patterns | Bio-inspired learning | -| **Hyperdimensional Computing** | 10,000-bit vectors for neural-symbolic reasoning | Near-orthogonal encoding | -| **Raft Consensus** | Leader election + log replication for distributed state | Tolerates f failures in 2f+1 nodes | -| **Semantic Task Matching** | LSH-based embeddings for intelligent agent routing | Sub-millisecond matching | -| **Adaptive Compression** | Network-aware quantization (4x-32x) | Auto-adjusts to conditions | -| **Canonical Signatures** | Deterministic JSON serialization for verifiable messages | Bit-perfect verification | +### What It Costs + +| Component | Cloud Solution | @ruvector/edge | +|-----------|---------------|----------------| +| Compute | $200-500/month | **$0** (user's CPU) | +| Vector DB | $100-300/month | **$0** (in-browser HNSW) | +| Encryption | $50-100/month | **$0** (built-in AES) | +| Bandwidth | $0.09/GB | **$0** (P2P direct) | +| Consensus | $100-200/month | **$0** (built-in Raft) | +| **Total** | **$450-1100/month** | **$0/month** | + +--- + +## Full Platform Capabilities + +RuVector provides a complete edge AI platform.
