About

We're a veteran-owned team building orchestration software for defense autonomous systems. Instead of focusing on individual platforms like drones or vehicles, we're developing the software that makes heterogeneous unmanned systems work together across air, sea, land, and space. Our approach centers on algorithm superiority - creating tested tactics, techniques, and procedures that can be deployed rapidly to complex mission environments. We believe the future of defense isn't just better hardware, but smarter coordination between existing assets.

Built by patriots, veterans, scientists, and AI practitioners, our team brings deep experience from NASA, DARPA, MIT, Georgia Tech, and the USAF. We've developed products like Urza (our universal orchestration engine) and LARIA (our tactics development environment) to help government and industry partners design, test, and deploy autonomous behaviors. We're not interested in the traditional defense industry approach of closed, monolithic systems - we're building open, collaborative tools that work across different vendors and platforms.
