Interoperability in Western defense is broken: not by lack of technology, but by lack of trust.
Command-and-control platforms are typically built by companies that compete with their hardware partners for the same contracts. Integration runs through a proprietary SDK with a revocable license, where those companies alone decide who counts as “compatible.” Vendors withhold data from platforms that threaten them. When the platform itself monetizes that data, trust collapses entirely.
Surtr exists outside this tension. We don't compete with our hardware partners on contracts. We don't monetize their data. We make them better by eliminating the frictions of integration and giving the warfighter the best C2, data fusion, and AI decision platform for live operations.
The warfighter needs the best available capability at the speed the threat demands. That only happens when every member of the network makes the others stronger: when integration is the default, not the obstacle.
ParallaxOS: the open operating system for counter‑UAS.
Hardware partners decide what data we see. Customers decide what data we keep. Every byte flowing through the system is visible to partners and customers in real time. Integrations come together in days, not months.
See every sensor.
Any radar, RF sensor, EO/IR camera, or acoustic array. NATO SAPIENT, Link 16, Cursor on Target, ATAK. All built in. Custom integrations belong to the customer.
Task any effector.
Open task interfaces to any compatible kinetic, EW, or directed-energy effector. Human-in-the-loop authorization on every engagement.
Decide in seconds.
Multi-sensor fusion, autonomous track correlation, AI threat classification. Millisecond latency at the tactical edge.
Own every byte.
Your data, your infrastructure, your keys. On-prem or GovCloud. The integration code, the data, and the decisions all belong to you.
