Overview

From headquarters to the edge.

Palisade is the defence suite: Arc and Vantage, hardened and configured for controlled and tactical environments.

Same platform

Stays current as models advance. Improvements to the platform reach Palisade on the same evergreen update cycle.

Configured to the mission

Mission workflows are configured on the existing platform. Changes follow the deployment's approval process.

Operated by the customer

Cleared staff run it. No standing vendor presence inside the mission.

Headquarters

Staffwork, analysis and policy.

An analyst asks a question on the network where the material is held, and CORTEX drafts an assessment with every claim linked to its source. Where the evidence is uncertain, the claim is flagged, and nothing is released until the analyst approves it.

Tactical users

On edge hardware, alongside the team.

At the edge, Palisade puts AI alongside operators and tactical formations, running on edge hardware to accelerate the work: from staffwork and course of action development to indicators and warnings.

Where it is used.

Examples of mission work include:

  • Open source intelligence

    Collection and analysis across the open internet, with attribution protection where the mission requires it.

  • Knowledge management

    Search historical records made available to the deployment, with handling and access rules preserved at every layer.

  • Accelerated planning and staffwork

    Agents assemble relevant material for planning teams, and draft routine headquarters business against the holdings the organisation already has.

  • Information operations

    Tooling for audience understanding, narrative tracking, and effect measurement across a campaign.

Across government, not only defence. The same suite serves intelligence, security, border, and law enforcement functions with the same assurance posture.

Deployment

Deployment options.

For headquarters and office work, Palisade runs in a secure enclave on government networks. For tactical users, it deploys on portable kits, small nodes or a containerised datacentre.

Offline / on-premise

Fully disconnected, on your own hardware, with your choice of open-weight models. Three form factors: portable, small node and containerised datacentre.

  • Portable

    Carried and operated by the user in the field.

  • Small node

    A few small units or a short rack, for an office or small headquarters.

  • Containerised datacentre

    Small, medium or large, for a headquarters or deployed site.
