Latent AI, a leader in edge AI solutions for national security and commercial applications, has announced an expansion of its product suite with Latent Assisted Label and the upgraded Latent Ruggedized Toolkit (RTK), building on the Latent Agent platform launched in June 2025. Coupled with strategic partnerships with Ditto, Wind River (an Aptiv company), and Voyager Technologies, these additions enable comprehensive edge AI capabilities for deployment in contested, constrained, and disconnected environments—from ground-based autonomous systems to orbital platforms. This marks a shift from fragmented point solutions to a complete, edge-native platform.
Traditional edge AI has been limited by data labeling bottlenecks, hardware incompatibilities, and field update difficulties, confining it to pilots. Latent AI's expansions address these, creating an end-to-end ecosystem for development, deployment, and management entirely at the edge. Jags Kandasamy, CEO and Co-Founder of Latent AI, stated, “Since launching Latent Agent in June, we've focused on completing our end-to-end edge AI solution. With Latent Assisted Label addressing the data labeling bottleneck and our upgraded Ruggedized Toolkit enabling field-updatable AI, we now provide a full product suite for organizations to develop, deploy, and manage AI at the edge.”
As a cohort winner in the U.S. Army's xTech AI Grand Challenge—Latent AI's third xTech achievement—Latent Assisted Label uses AI-driven automation to accelerate annotation up to 100x faster than manual methods. It handles repetitive labeling, flags low-confidence results for review, and supports real-time field annotation. Available as a FiftyOne plugin (standalone version soon), it integrates with RTK for one-click labeling via no-code interfaces, streamlining workflows from data prep to deployment.
The enhanced Latent Ruggedized Toolkit delivers real-time, updatable AI in networked-denied settings, allowing operators to modify unmanned systems (UxS) missions on-site. Supporting Group 1 and 2 drones, it features multimodal sensors (electro-optical, infrared, RF), zero-shot labeling, and model management. Sek Chai, CTO of Latent AI, highlighted, “By reducing the fielding time of edge AI to just minutes, our warfighters are more agile and able to rapidly adapt to changing battlefield conditions.” Form factors range from tactical servers to wearables, compatible with Android or ATAK smartphones.
Latent AI's collaborations extend capabilities across domains:
These partnerships ensure seamless integration for defense, aerospace, and critical infrastructure, from ground UxS to space-based operations.
The expansions coincide with edge AI's inflection point, driven by cloud costs, GPU shortages, and energy demands. Latent AI's platform eliminates model-to-hardware guesswork, supporting any chip/OS/form factor with secure, efficient deployment. As the robotics market quadruples to $200B in six years (humanoids at 40%+ CAGR), Latent AI positions organizations for scalable, adaptive AI in high-stakes environments.
Latent AI's comprehensive suite and partnerships herald a new era of edge-native AI, empowering rapid, secure innovation from lab to field.
Latent AI delivers edge AI solutions that enable rapid deployment of artificial intelligence capabilities on any device. Founded in 2018, the company's developer platform helps government and commercial organizations implement efficient, secure AI solutions at the edge. Latent AI's tools enable developers to build and update secure, adaptive models for field or laboratory use, serving defense and commercial customers.
