+# Parallel
+
+**Open-source mesh networking infrastructure for sovereign, resilient connectivity.**
+
+We build practical tools for deploying decentralized wireless networks that operate independently of centralized infrastructure — no cell towers, no ISPs, no single points of failure.
+
+---
+
+### Projects
+
+**[Haven MANET IP Mesh Radio](https://github.com/buildwithparallel/haven-manet-ip-mesh-radio)** — Complete platform for long-range mesh networks using HaLow (802.11ah) sub-1GHz radios. Self-healing topology with BATMAN-adv routing, 1–10+ km range per node, optional Reticulum encryption, and ATAK/CivTAK integration. Built on OpenWrt.
+
+**[MeshLink](https://github.com/buildwithparallel/Meshlink)** — Decentralized WiFi hotspot network with captive portal, tiered access control, Stripe payment integration, and an operator dashboard for managing nodes and revenue. Turns a Raspberry Pi into a monetizable access point.
+
+**[Reticulum RNodes](https://github.com/buildwithparallel/reticulum-rnodes)** — NeoPixel-enhanced RNode firmware for ESP32/LoRa boards. Visual status indicators for boot, TX, and RX events. Supports extreme-range backup comms via the Reticulum encrypted network stack.

+
+### Use Cases
+
+- Disaster response and humanitarian operations
+- Remote operations, agriculture, and maritime
+- Community networks and large event connectivity
+- Tactical situational awareness (ATAK/CivTAK)
