Dual-Use AI Personnel Management Platform 

Seamlessly integrating generative AI into defense and heavy industries personnel management processes

Current prototype focuses on solving existing Navy challenges however core technology can be used more broadly. See Up Next to learn more.

Existing Challenges

  • Let’s be honest, paper logs are the worst. They are prone to getting lost, imprecise, and cumbersome to manage.

  • Manual record keeping limits data driven insights. COs and supervisors lack basic insights to be able to make informed decisions.

  • Self-reporting bias refers to the tendency for individuals to provide inaccurate or skewed information about themselves or their behavior, often influenced by social desirability or cognitive biases. I’m not saying “gun-decking” is happening but it certainly could with he current system

  • As a Navy, we aren’t tracking training evolutions at the individual level. For example, I’m not sure how many MOB exercises I completed…maybe 6?

  • Unlike the aviation community that keeps a meticulous record of flight hours, regardless of squadron, the surface community lacks this discipline. As a result, COs are left guessing about the experience a sailor brings to their command.

Solution Roadmap

Design —> Prototype —> Development —> Navy MVP —> Navy AI —> Dual Use Platform

Phase 1: Navy MVP

Minimum Viable Product

First up, lets fix the fundamentals. Launch a cloud based solution. Collect feedback, iterate, improve!

Phase 2: Generative AI

Gather more support

Add generative AI capabilities to the existing Navy MVP. Continue to collect feedback, iterate, improve!

Phase 3: Platform

Deploy at scale

Develop the ability for customizable elements that allow Zumwalt to be used by various industries outside the Navy/DoD. Continue to collect feedback, iterate, improve (this will never stop)!
