Analytics at the Edge

In the spectrum of analytic tradecraft, one size does not fit all, as illustrated in the graph below. However, an end-to-end understanding of the spectrum increases success at all levels.

RealmOne applies our end-to-end experience and understanding of the intelligence lifecycle to deliver solutions across the spectrum by tailoring analytic AI and automation for strategic (national), operational (command), and tactical (warfighter) level objectives. At one end, we support strategic “Multi-INT analysis” that prioritizes a wide range of sources, analytical rigor for full audit of references, and deep expertise to produce detailed and broad products. At the other end we support operational and tactical “analytics” that quickly combine available information with baseline knowledge and AI at the edge to meet specific operational needs.

In a tactical environment where the number of personnel placed in harm’s way must be as small as possible, our fusion analysis solutions prioritize timeliness by accepting that an analyst’s baseline knowledge is a practical substitute for fully audited and referenced products. That is, “analyst as a source” has extreme value where analytical power is constrained in size, but it benefits from AI and automation technologies to bridge the gap and enhance the confidence of real-time analytic conclusions.

RealmOne’s significant experience with analytic technology and tradecraft at the strategic level improves forecasting of adversary intentions and emerging risks, and helps senior leaders make informed policy and military decisions based on balanced, corroborated intelligence.

Emphasis: Comprehensive synthesis of multiple intelligence data streams       (HUMINT, SIGINT, GEOINT, OSINT, All Source, etc.).
Analyst Role: Deep subject-matter expertise + extensive source validation.
Output: Thorough, peer-reviewed, fully referenced products.
Use Case: Strategic decision-making; long-term planning.
Strengths: Depth, reliability, wide contextual understanding.
Limitations: Time- and resource-intensive.
RealmOne delivers solutions at the strategic level that present a complete, multi-dimensional picture of adversaries and threats. This strategic analytic experience enhances RealmOne’s ability to deliver effective operational and tactical analytics at the edge by providing a big-picture perspective, encouraging our data-driven culture, and attracting skilled talent. We scale and adapt strategic, all-source models to support fusion analysis for real-time decision-making at operational and tactical levels.

Emphasis: Rapid integration of available real-time intelligence with baseline knowledge. (HUMINT, SIGINT, GEOINT, OSINT, All Source, etc.).
Analyst Role: Subject-matter familiarity acts as an intelligence source; speed prioritized.
Output: Agile, action-focused intelligence products; often minimally sourced.
Use Case: Immediate operational support; tactical planning.
Strengths: Speed, adaptability, relevance to immediate needs.

In the time-sensitive, resource-constrained operational military environment, analyst cognition becomes a de facto source. Their knowledge of the atmospherics, current reporting, and region-specific dynamics allows decisions to be made with acceptable confidence despite limited formal sourcing and review. RealmOne can help bridge the resource gap by applying confidence-based Analytic AI and Automation to augment human capability. Where traditional, team-cognition quality control (e.g., peer review) is impractical, our AI-enabled tools act as cognitive force multipliers, enabling:

– Hypothesis refinement
– Discovery of available sources
– Link analysis, pattern recognition, threat modeling, anomaly detection
– Adaptation for different operational audiences
– Simulation of “What If” scenarios

In the tactical environment, effective intelligence analysis is fluid and adapts to operational tempo and decision-making contexts. The value of “analyst intuition” is real — but tools and frameworks help mitigate bias and blind spots. RealmOne’s AI-enhanced analysis augments human judgment in tactical settings where team size and time are limited, increasing accuracy and providing confidence in results.

Traditional contractors in the industrial base typically engage mission through proposals. RealmOne engages mission by sharing ideas and developing innovative solutions collaboratively. We have invested heavily in building out our Foundry Research and Development Lab to simulate intelligence environments, ranging from the strategic to the tactical. We have delivered dozens of mission capabilities by prototyping and demonstrating solutions for actual mission use cases and challenges. Give us your hard problems. We’ll engage our team and extensive network of technology partners to rapidly develop and demonstrate solutions.

RealmOne – accelerating innovation to dominate adversaries.
