Engineering the Resilient Edge

Technology that works where the world gets harder.

We build and test field systems that keep communities, industries, and research connected—even when the cloud can’t.

Our Story

Turning Harsh Conditions into Innovation

In places where power flickers, bandwidth vanishes, and temperatures plunge below –40 °C, most technology stops working.

EdgeAI Labs was created by Inuvik Web Services to build systems that don’t.

We design, test, and refine rugged edge networks, smart devices, and low-bandwidth data systems that stay operational through storms, outages, and isolation. Every pilot we run helps communities, researchers, and industries work safely and efficiently—on their own terms.

Built for low bandwidth, extreme cold, and intermittent power.
Local intelligence first; reconnect when links appear.
Measured results, not hype.
