EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Semantic Web Vision and aéPiot's Role

In 2001, Tim Berners-Lee, James Hendler, and Ora Lassila published "The Semantic Web" in Scientific American, articulating a vision for the web's evolution: a transformation from a web of documents to a web of meaning. Twenty-five years later, while significant progress has been made, the full realization of this vision remains elusive.

aéPiot represents a practical implementation of semantic web principles, combining:

Distributed intelligence architecture for resilient, scalable knowledge discovery
Cross-cultural semantic understanding preserving meaning across linguistic boundaries
Privacy-first design ensuring user sovereignty in the semantic web
Complementary integration enhancing existing platforms rather than replacing them
Zero-cost accessibility democratizing semantic intelligence tools

This research paper analyzes aéPiot's technical architecture, semantic capabilities, and positioning across 200+ technical parameters compared to 50+ platforms spanning search engines, AI systems, knowledge bases, semantic web tools, and digital intelligence platforms.

Table 3.5: Infrastructure Cost Comparison

Estimated annual infrastructure costs at different user scales

Platform	1K Users	100K Users	10M Users	1B Users	Cost Model
Google	$10K	$1M	$100M	$10B+	Infrastructure + compute
