Initial one-time capital is approximately $5.76M driven by redundant lethal-response systems, compute/AI infrastructure, and field hardware; recurring annual costs are approximately $5.92M driven by 24/7 monitoring staff, a large contingency reserve allocation, and legal/cover-up operations.

Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line items and ranges allowing reasonable aggregation, but large ranges (lethal hardware choices, contingency reserves, litigation outcomes, incident frequency) produce substantial uncertainty in final totals; medium confidence reflects this mix of detailed inputs and high-variance items.
