Formerly Yurts, it lets defense agencies and Fortune 500 teams deploy and orchestrate AI agents across cloud, on-prem, air-gapped, and classified networks (IL-2 through IL-6) using any large language model, with human-in-the-loop control and full auditability. Its platform has been fielded at U.S. Special Operations Command, the U.S. Army, and the Department of Energy, where it cut intelligence-summary creation time by 94% and saved staff hundreds of hours per week.
