EchoHuman Ecosystem

Local AI Infrastructure Overview

Vera + Helsinki2 Architecture | May 2026
Distributed Local AI Architecture

EchoHuman operates across a dual-node infrastructure combining local processing with distributed coordination

Context

Vera serves as the local machine while Helsinki2 provides distributed infrastructure support for the Civic Mesh project stack

Infrastructure Components

Vera (Local)

Primary local processing node

  • Local AI model execution
  • Real-time data processing
  • User interface hosting
  • Privacy-first operations

Helsinki2 (Distributed)

Distributed infrastructure layer

  • Network coordination
  • Resource distribution
  • Backup processing
  • Inter-node communication

Civic Mesh

Community coordination layer

  • Local governance tools
  • Community decision making
  • Resource sharing protocols
  • Democratic participation
