Public deployment references

No deployment reference has completed editorial review for this profile.

A demonstration, a pilot and a paid deployment describe different levels of evidence. Manufacturer announcements remain labelled as such.

Manufacturer prices are reference prices. MALONI confirms its quote and delivery for each destination. Coverage is growing and is not a complete global census. Unknowns remain visible. Manufacturer statements are separate from independent measurements. Read the methodology.
