DOWNTRACE AI

Process. Exploit. Disseminate.

Tactical intelligence systems for denied and disconnected environments. Fully offline. SOF-validated. Mission-ready.

THE GAP

AI reaches the enterprise.
But not the edge.

Defense AI has made incredible progress — but most of it lives in enterprise infrastructure with persistent connectivity. When communications are denied or degraded, that capability doesn't reach the operator who needs it most.

We're building the last mile.

THE CYCLE

Process. Exploit. Disseminate.

01 — PROCESS

Ingest live drone feeds, sensor data, signals, and human intelligence — on device, on edge hardware the force already fields.

02 — EXPLOIT

Fuse multi-source data against doctrine and commander's requirements. Corroborate. Analyze. Recommend courses of action.

03 — DISSEMINATE

Push structured outputs over tactical RF to every receiving node in the formation — no cloud, no backhaul, no infrastructure required.

SYSTEMS

Two Products. One Formation. Zero Connectivity.

Drone-agnostic. Radio-agnostic. Vendor-agnostic. Decision advantage at the point of action.

VANGUARD

AI at the point of action.

TAK-native AI that brings natural language queries and real-time intelligence to the operator. Voice-activated. Fully offline.

  • Natural language interface
  • Voice-activated queries
  • ATAK & WinTAK native
OVERWATCH

Fusion. Reporting. Decision advantage.

All-source fusion on a single node. Correlates multi-INT data to deliver actionable intelligence — no cloud, no backhaul.

  • Multi-INT fusion
  • Real-time inference on live ISR
  • Zero cloud dependency

ORIGIN

Built for the Warfighter, by a Warfighter

Downtrace AI builds tactical intelligence systems that operate where cloud-dependent systems fail. Founded by a Special Forces operator who experienced the problem firsthand.
