Security & Deployment

On your network. In your enclave. At the edge.

Watchglass is self-hosted software, not a service. It runs where you run it - a laptop, a server, or your own cloud - and the classification-aware routing layer makes sure data only reaches connections cleared to carry it.

One server, any browser

Install on a ground-station laptop, a server, or a cloud instance. Every other operator reaches it through an ordinary web browser - nothing to install on each seat.

Disconnected & air-gapped

Runs fully offline, including air-gapped and classified networks. Resilient over Starlink, Starshield, and cellular, and designed for denied comms.

Classification-aware

A routing layer keys data to the network path, end to end, so a feed only reaches a connection cleared to carry it. Authorized and open feeds only - not a collection or intercept tool.

AI in your enclave

The analytic AI runs unclassified, or on Amazon Bedrock inside your own AWS / GovCloud for classified work. Keys and data stay on your system; nothing leaves the enclave.

Owned IP, no lock-in

Wholly STS-owned intellectual property. Open standards in and out mean no proprietary trap - it interoperates with what you already field.

Analytic rigor & audit

ICD 203 estimative language, source provenance, and a full audit trail from first cue to final product - judgments that are logged, sourced, and reversible.

Scales to the mission

From one operator to a theater.

The same codebase runs for a single operator or ODA and for a national headquarters watching many operations across commands at once through federation. You size the deployment to the mission, not the other way around.

For government

A working prototype, ready to pilot.

Watchglass is offered by Strategic Task Solutions, LLC, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business - enabling set-aside and sole-source awards and a streamlined path from SBIR / STTR to Phase III production. It is running software today, not a concept.

Detailed capability materials and a live demonstration are provided to authorized government and partner audiences after qualification, and may be subject to U.S. export-control (EAR / ITAR) requirements.

SBIR / STTR - ISR exploitation, planning & rehearsal, maritime domain awareness, edge / disconnected C2, JADC2, operator training.
Scoped pilot in your environment, crediting toward production.
Set-aside & sole-source eligible within applicable thresholds.
