Garage Defense™ Mission

Garage Defense™ exists to win, to protect, and to deliver at speed.

We give the United States and coalition partners an always on multi-INT cognitive edge through an unclass-first regional digital twin with predictive AI analytics across air, sea, land, space, and cyber.                                         

We protect US critical interests at the homeland, the coalition, and the critical-infrastructure tier - from maritime domain awareness, threat analysis and early warning, base-defense counter-UAS, to resilient PNT operations.

We speed AI innovation to the warfighter - leading AI to US warfighters to gain instant edge on land, sea, air. No-cost pilots for government agencies, application-scoped ATO. Software speed, not procurement cycles.



Garage Defense™ is a US-based defense AI company building secure software for mission-critical defense and government applications. Our platform fuses multi-source data across edge and cloud environments to deliver AI-driven situational awareness, decision support, and operational workflows used by the warfighter.  

US-sovereign by design - across the stack.
Resilient sovereign operational infrastructure - across data, models, PNT, engineering, and operations. By design, not by add-on.        

Deployed on AWS GovCloud, the Garage Defense™ Platform is designed to integrate with existing operational systems and customer-furnished C2 stacks. By combining Multi-INT fusion with independent dual confidence scoring - methodology details available under NDA - Garage Defense™ reduces time-to-intelligence and deliver decision-ready outputs into US and coalition C2 ecosystems via standards-based interfaces aligned with JADC2-class reference architectures. Specific integration list available under qualification process.

The same platform architecture supports selective commercial applications where defense-grade reliability, security, and  operational discipline are required. Garage Defense™ engages through selective US partnerships in markets where resilient AI, secure data fusion, and mission-critical decision support create operational advantage .

Garage Defense™ delivers across five strategic dimensions:

1. Speed of Intelligence - Enabling sub-second decision windows when time and clarity matter most.                      

2. Next-Generation Warfighting - Advancing agent-to-agent tactical integration across existing C2 ecosystems.  

3. Cost Discipline - Compressing acquisition timelines and budgets through application-scoped ATO and BYOC deployment models.

4. Breakthrough AI - Delivering a multi-INT cognitive substrate built on advanced AI capabilities

5. Defense Industrial AI Base - Strengthening U.S.-based AI innovation and accelerating breakthroughs


Garage Defense™ is led by Jacob LeWinter - entrepreneur and operator with prior AWS experience and a track record of shipping products at scale. Supported by a team of defense AI engineers, operators, and technologists with experience across AI, defense, and emerging-technology.
