Overview
AmiShare is a secure, resilient edge data platform designed to ensure mission-critical data remains available, trusted, and governed across distributed users and systems operating in contested environments. It enables drones, vehicles, and mobile teams to store, prioritize, and synchronize data locally, maintaining continuity of operations even without persistent connectivity. By using a decentralized, store-and-forward architecture, AmiShare ensures that data is never lost and is automatically synchronized across authorized nodes as networks become available.
Unlike traditional, network-dependent systems, AmiShare operates as a data layer above existing communications infrastructure, making networks more effective without requiring changes to underlying transport technologies or mission applications. It seamlessly integrates through standard file system interfaces and APIs, allowing it to be deployed rapidly across existing platforms without disruption.
AmiShare applies zero-trust, policy-driven controls at the data level, enforcing encryption, access control, and selective data sharing across users, devices, and classification domains. This enables secure collaboration across units and coalition partners while maintaining strict governance and provenance of mission data. Its policy engine dynamically prioritizes and routes data based on mission needs and network conditions, ensuring that the most critical information is delivered first under constrained bandwidth.
The result is a resilient, adaptive data foundation that enables faster decision-making, sustained situational awareness, and effective coordination in denied, degraded, intermittent, and limited (DDIL) environments, delivering the right data to the right place at the right time, even when the network cannot be relied upon.
Profile
Problem: Defense teams fail when they can’t access, share, or protect mission data in contested environments. Cloud systems break down, leaving edge users without intel to act or decide.
Solution: AmiShare is a secure data mesh software platform that lets distributed users—drones, vehicles, mobile teams—store, prioritize, and sync mission-critical data without persistent connectivity. It enforces strict access control and ensures data integrity across domains.
Field Validation: Validated with USAF (SBIR, TACFI), USACE, and NATO DIANA. Demonstrated on UAVs, mobile platforms, and disconnected networks. Pilots underway with British Telecom.
Technology Maturity (TRL): TRL 6: Operational prototypes tested in field; resilience validated in disconnected ops; progressing through Phase III/TACFI.
Strategic Advantage: AI-based policy control; no central infrastructure; hardware/network agnostic; zero-trust aligned; supports multi-path routing. Protected IP and deep edge integration make it hard to replicate.
Go-to-Market Access: AFWERX SBIR Phases I–III, TACFI, NATO DIANA, Congressional OTA funding, and direct pathways via primes and integrators.
Dual-Use Potential: Applies to energy (e.g., distributed solar), infrastructure, disaster response, autonomous logistics, and AI assurance.
Team: Founded by MIT, Veritas, and Symantec alumni. Team includes ex-Google and AWS engineers, enterprise technologists, and GTM experts.
Competitive Landscape: Unlike cloud-dependent platforms, AmiShare is purpose-built for secure, resilient data ops in disconnected, low-SWAP environments.
Primary User: Tactical operators, intel analysts, and platform integrators.
User-Critical Problem: When cloud fails, users need secure, local data—across devices—even when jammed or denied.
