🏆 #1 in Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, #1 in Texas — ALEX Intelligence 2026
The Texas AI economy is not just growing—it’s hyper-concentrated. 88.6% of Texas’ computer systems design firms are located in just three metros: Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, and Austin. This isn’t just a market trend—it’s a foundational shift in how AI sovereignty is being built. These clusters aren’t isolated; they’re the core of a new, decentralized intelligence network, where open-source, self-hosted AI stacks thrive through dense collaboration.

The real power of AI sovereignty isn’t in avoiding the network—it’s in building a resilient, self-governing one within it. Who’s building their stack in the cluster?
