Case studies
Real-world AI at the tactical edge
LEIP to be central technology enabling the Army’s first-ever AI program of record.
Project Linchpin is the Army’s path to delivering trusted AI, says Bharat Patel, the product lead for Project Linchpin. LEIP was chosen as the primary development platform to help the Army deliver AI at scale. Latent AI’s focus on trust and security, emphasizing the model lifecycle, are critical differentiators. In fact, LEIP offers the only MLOps platform with optimization and security together in a single framework ready for IL5/IL6 integration.
Streamlining AI for the Navy’s Project AMMO
The US Navy chose LEIP for its ability to accommodate larger models in various environments and to modify and redeploy ML models quickly. After a successful prototype phase, Project Ammo with Latent AI and other partners continue the program to create production AI for the Navy’s Underwater Unmanned Vehicle program.
Reducing information latency for the Air Force
Latent AI achieved an inference speed three times faster with onboard edge AI and enhanced decision-making speed by 70% by processing data at the sensor. This demonstrates the viability of onboard generative AI model processing for USAF anomaly detection.

“Latent AI has pioneered groundbreaking technologies, offering capabilities I haven’t seen elsewhere. Their edge AI solutions empower the DoD to operate in disconnected and denied environments, a critical requirement in future conflicts. Their automated optimization platform greatly accelerates AI development and deployment, giving U.S. forces a significant advantage over their adversaries. Latent’s technologies are essential for addressing the complex and ever-shifting challenges the DoD faces today and in the future.”
Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Jack Shanahan
“Deploying AI at the tactical edge presents unique complexity. The hardware available can range from highly constrained to near data center capacity. The models themselves vary dramatically both in terms of computational load and capabilities. Selecting the right model up front is tremendously valuable in terms of reducing developmental risk and timelines and if you need to switch models you need to have tools that support doing that in an agile way. Latent AI’s ability to select, optimize, and retrain AI models is crucial for the DoD. This agility is critical for speeding up the development and deployment of AI-powered solutions.”
