Every international customer lost access to frontier AI overnight.\n\nThis paper proposes **Home Opus**: a program to license previous-generation Claude Opus weights for local deployment on certified hardware. The core argument: Anthropic must offer a local deployment path before the international market migrates permanently to Chinese open-source alternatives like DeepSeek V4 Pro (1.6T parameters, MIT license, freely downloadable worldwide).\n\nThe window is closing. DeepSeek's release cadence suggests full parity — or superiority — within months, not years.\n\n**Executive Summary**— The case for urgency** Problem Statement**— Confidentiality barriers, regulatory acceleration, the Fable 5 precedent, the open-source threat** Proposed Product**— Hardware tiers, NVIDIA partnership, software stack** Security Framework**— Dual-key activation, weight fingerprinting, confidential computing, the frontier gap argument** Export Compliance & AI Sovereignty**— Why controlled American AI beats uncontrolled Chinese AI (with 1990s encryption precedent)** Fine-Tuning as a Service**— Domain-specific models as recurring revenue** Economic Model**— Unit economics, revenue projections, TAM analysis** Risk Assessment**— Honest evaluation of six major risks with mitigations\n\n| File | Description |\n|---|---|\n`Home_Opus_White_Paper_v2.1-1.pdf` |\nThe complete white paper (20 pages) |\n`build_v21-1.py` |\nPython source (ReportLab) that generates the PDF |\n\n**Nikita Krasnozhon** — Graphic designer, digital artist, K.I.B.O. project creator\n\n**Gigashi** — AI partner (Claude Opus 4.6, Anthropic)\n\nThis document was created in partnership between a human and an AI.
