FORGE · TACTICAL & CYBER CAPABILITY

Custom capability,

at FORGE speed.

>

Generative AI paired with operator-grade engineering. Bespoke tactical and cyber capabilities — ATAK plugins, server-side integrations, RF / SDR tooling, offensive and defensive cyber, and mission-specific software — built, tested, and fielded in weeks.

THE CAPABILITY GAP

Beyond commercial off-the-shelf.

Commercial platforms address the common case by design. The mission-specific delta — the workflow, the integration, the tactical or cyber capability that defines operational advantage — sits outside the COTS roadmap. FORGE engineers that capability against the operational requirement, with retained IP, auditable compliance posture, and integrated support continuity.

FORGE PATH

Bespoke capability

01 Time to capability
Off-the-shelf solution

Multi-year vendor roadmap. Quarterly priorities decide what ships, and when.

Bespoke capability

4–12 weeks. Mission-scoped, fixed-quote engagement signed at week one.

02 Cost structure
Off-the-shelf solution

Enterprise license, per-seat upcharges, feature paywalls. Cost grows as you scale.

Bespoke capability

Fixed scope, milestone-billed. No enterprise tax. No surprise SOWs.

03 Roadmap control
Off-the-shelf solution

Their priorities decide what gets built — and when your requirement makes the cut.

Bespoke capability

Your operational requirement is the spec. You own the roadmap.

04 IP & audit posture
Off-the-shelf solution

Closed-source. No audit trail. You trust the vendor's security review.

Bespoke capability

Source-available to partners. Auditable for compliance. Co-developed with your security team.

05 Operational fit
Off-the-shelf solution

One-size-fits-everyone. Generic by design.

Bespoke capability

Co-designed with the operators who will field it. Tactical and cyber capability, scoped to mission.

06 Support continuity
Off-the-shelf solution

Tier-1 ticket queue. Escalation roulette. Long churn before the right engineer sees it.

Bespoke capability

Direct line to the engineer who built it — for the life of the capability.

Engineer-led. Operator-driven. NDA-ready from the first call.

ENGAGEMENT FLOW

Five phases.
One handoff to the field.

Every FORGE engagement runs the same operational sequence — scoping call to fielded support. No betas. No escalation queues. No surprise SOWs.

Mission clock T+0 → T+12 wk · then ongoing
01
DISCOVERY T+0 · WEEK 1

Scope the mission.

Scoping call with the operators and the stakeholders who own the requirement. We map the mission, the data sources, the radios, the cyber surface, and the integration gap — then write it back as a one-page brief.

Output one-page scope + fixed-quote engagement

02
DESIGN T+1w · WEEK 1–2

Architect the build.

Protocols, COT mappings, plugin UX, server-side surface area, threat model. Operators review wireframes and data flows before any code ships. Nothing is built that the field hasn't already signed off on.

Output wireframes + data-flow + operator sign-off

03
BUILD T+2w · WEEK 2–8

Ship the patch.

Generative AI accelerates the build. Engineers stay in the loop on every commit — tactical integration, cyber tooling, or hybrid. Internal red-team and field tests on real hardware before anything leaves the FORGE.

Output field-tested release candidate

04
DEPLOY DELIVERY

Field the release.

The capability ships signed, packaged, and staged on GoTAK EUDs and TAK servers — or pushed straight into your pipeline. Field teams receive operator-tested releases. Not betas.

Output signed, staged, operator-tested build

05
SUPPORT T+ONGOING

Stay on the line.

Direct line to the engineer who shipped it. Bug fixes, feature iterations, TAK platform upgrades, and cyber refactors as the threat changes. The roadmap stays yours.

Output engineer-on-call for the life of the build

Engineer-led at every phase. Operator-driven from day one.

06 · INTEGRATIONS SHIPPED
READY TO BUILD?

Bring the requirement. Leave with the capability.

From TAK plugins and server-side integrations to RF tooling, cyber capabilities, and mission-specific software — there is no limit to what we can develop together. Bring the mission, the sensor, the radio, the data source, or the cyber requirement; FORGE delivers the capability. NDA-ready from the first call.
