Last night on Capitol Hill, we made a statement—and it wasn’t subtle. We brought together Congressman Ed Case, former Congressman Chris Stewart, Dr. Phil Potter from the University of Virginia, and our fearless founder and CEO Shubhi Mishra for a powerful conversation on how AI agents, autonomy, and industrial capacity will define the future of warfare—and what the U.S. must do to stay ahead of China. The room was packed. The rooftop was buzzing. It was a shot across the bow of the defense tech status quo. We aren’t here to play the game. We’re here to change it. We’re redefining what it means to be a prime: fast, mission-obsessed, radically transparent, and focused on real outcomes for the warfighter. This wasn’t just an event. It was a turning point. And it’s just the beginning. #MeetYourNewPrime #LFG 🚀 https://teamraft.com/mynp/

We were never supposed to move this slow. Not in an era where threats move at machine speed. Not when wars are won—or lost—by who can decide first. Yet we’ve been asked to fight with systems that don’t talk, platforms that don’t fuse, and software that wasn’t built for warfighters—just built for contracts. The future isn’t won with more hardware. It’s won with AI agents. It's won with unity. That’s why we exist. We’re are the New Prime. #LFG 🚀 Check it out: https://teamraft.com/mynp/

During Exercise Balikatan 25, the largest U.S.-Philippines joint military exercise, AOC Anywhere, powered by the Raft Data Platform, enabled real-time mission planning and command and control from a forward-deployed location in the Indo-Pacific. Built in just seven months with the U.S. Pacific Air Forces, alongside Red Hat, Parsons Corporation, and others, this system delivers real-time data, AI-powered tools, and secure mission apps directly to the warfighter at the edge.

Recognition like this? Rare. Impact? Real. Proud to back the 613th AOC and the United States Air Force with tech that delivers at the edge—and even prouder of our Rafters who show up every day to make it happen. Way to go Tejendra Patel! #LFG 🚀
Honored. Grateful. Humbled. While supporting Exercise #Balikatan in the Philippines, a joint exercise between the United States and Philippines, I was completely caught off guard when Brig Gen Korey Amundson handed me a 1-star challenge coin for the work we’ve been doing at Raft on the AOC Anywhere project. One of the key goals of this initiative is to deploy mission applications on DISA Stratus, allowing users to securely and seamlessly access them from anywhere on a secured network. It's a big step forward in agility and capability for our warfighters. Receiving a coin as a contractor is rare, which makes this recognition even more meaningful. Every member of our Raft team to the 613th AOC has played a part in delivering mission-critical value. I’m incredibly proud to represent Raft, and to help strengthen the trusted partnership we have with the U.S. Air Force. This just reinforces the impact we’re making together and the importance of the work we're doing. Looking forward to everything ahead as we continue to support our warfighters. Received with a handshake. Earned by the team. Edward White, Ryan Salcido, John Raha, Franz Dominno #usindopacom #balikatan #philippines #Raft #pacaf

Breaking News: StarSage just became the first agentic AI to speak with live tactical systems during the United States Air Force Project Convergence Capstone 5 (PC-C5) exercise. StarSage integrated across real-world platforms, understood mission context, and delivered AI-driven decisions in real time—accelerating machine-speed decision-making, bridging fragmented systems with agentic autonomy, and proving AI’s operational readiness on the tactical edge. This is a major step forward for modern command and control—and a clear signal that trusted autonomy is no longer theoretical. It’s here. #LFG 🚀 Read the full press release: https://lnkd.in/ecWJ36Qv
