5. Roadmap - Steps Toward Market Entry
Strategic Milestones
Quarter | Milestone | Goal |
---|---|---|
Q3 '25 | IoT Bridge v1 (BLE / ESP32) | Smart device hardware demo & PoC customer acquisition |
Q4 '25 | Edge Canister Mesh | Latency ≤50ms, offline operation continuity |
Q1 '26 | Pilot Launch | Property & key management MVP deployment |
Ultimately, we will build the foundation for "AI-suggested operation systems," evolving into Home Concierge AI.
Strategic Fit with ICP
ICP is the platform for fastest realization of "Web3 integrated into daily life." We want to pioneer this in the IoT domain.
1. Economic Model Innovation
Traditional Cloud Model Limitations:
Monthly Cost = (Device Count × Unit Price) + (API Calls × Usage Fee) + (Data Storage Fee)
An inherent structure where increasing devices compress profitability.
ICP's Reverse Gas Model:
User Cost = 0
Operational Cost = Cycles (minimal and predictable)
The Reverse Gas model ensures scale benefits convert reliably to profit without compressing margins through subscriptions or usage-based pricing.
2. Regulatory Resilience as Competitive Advantage
Legal Compliance:
- Tamper-proof logs: Automatic compliance through Canister persistent storage
- Incident reporting: Transparency assurance through distributed ledger
- Supply chain management: Device provenance tracking via Principal ID
By proactively designing for future regulatory requirements, we transform regulatory compliance from "cost" to "competitive advantage."
3. Ecosystem Effect Chain Reaction
New Value Creation Through Blockchain IoT:
- Replace physical keys and card keys with NFT/VC
- Automatic execution of usage conditions through smart contracts
VC (Verifiable Credential) Integration:
- Issue access rights as VC (Verifiable Credentials)
- Safe granting and revocation of temporary access rights
- Automatic audit trail generation
- Bridge between physical world and Web3
