DRAIDIS Core Modules

Purpose-built AI modules that run entirely at the edge.

Sensor Fusion

Correlates feeds from EO/IR, thermal, acoustic, and RF sensors into a unified operating picture. Reduces cognitive load by surfacing only what matters.

Local RAG Engine

Retrieves doctrine, SOPs, and field manuals from an encrypted local vector store. Answers operator questions with cited, authoritative references.

Alert Triage Agent

Prioritizes detections by threat level, proximity, and mission context. Filters noise so operators focus on actionable intelligence.

Operator Copilot

Natural language interface for querying system state, requesting sensor tasking, and generating situation reports. Voice and text input supported.

Sync & Federation

Delta-syncs data between DRAIDIS nodes over constrained links. mTLS encryption, conflict resolution, and policy-based replication built in.

Audit & Explainability

Every AI decision is logged with full provenance - input data, model version, confidence score, and reasoning chain. Meets DoD explainability requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

DRAIDIS (Distributed Real-time AI Decision Intelligence System) is a family of edge AI systems designed for military and defense operators. It runs offline at the edge, processing sensor data through local AI models to deliver real-time decision support - from dismounted patrols to vehicle platforms to command posts. When connectivity is available, DRAIDIS syncs data and models with cloud infrastructure for enhanced capabilities.

DRAIDIS is built for disconnected operations - all AI inference, RAG retrieval, and sensor fusion run on local hardware with no connectivity required. When network access is available, DRAIDIS syncs intelligence, model updates, and operational data with cloud infrastructure. DRAIDIS Charlie leverages AWS Outposts for additional compute while maintaining full offline capability in denied environments.

DRAIDIS Charlie runs on AWS Outposts - ruggedized rack infrastructure deployed at the command post. It leverages EC2 GPU instances (AWS GovCloud compatible), Bedrock for foundation models, SageMaker for model training and fine-tuning, Kinesis for real-time data streaming, and S3 for data lake storage. This gives you cloud-grade AI capabilities with on-premises data sovereignty and full offline fallback.

Yes. DRAIDIS includes a native ATAK plugin that overlays AI-generated alerts, detections, and recommendations directly onto the ATAK map interface. Operators see fused intelligence without switching applications or workflows.

DRAIDIS follows a 90-day deployment model: a working prototype in 30 days, a fieldable alpha with real sensor integration in 60 days, and a pilot-ready system with operator training in 90 days. All configurations share a unified software stack, so capabilities proven on one tier transfer directly to others.
