Our team has deep experience in national security, building SOTA LLMs from the ground up, optimizing models for edge deployment, and building technology that solves real-world challenges for military and enterprise users. We advocate for the deployment of domain-specific AI locally and privately, responding to data privacy, latency, and cost concerns. Our strategy involves developing a suite of domain-specific Small Language Models (SLMs) that operate synergistically. This catalyzes the start of collective intelligence, where multiple SLMs interact and collaborate to solve problems.
