Latent AI expands edge AI ecosystem with new product suite and strategic partnerships

Latent AI, a leader in edge AI solutions, today announced the expansion of its product suite with Latent Assisted Label and the upgraded Latent Ruggedized Toolkit (RTK), complementing the Latent Agent platform launched in June. Combined with strategic partnerships with Ditto, Wind River an Aptiv Company, and Voyager Technologies, these product additions deliver comprehensive capabilities for organizations deploying AI in contested, constrained, and disconnected environments—from ground-based autonomous systems to orbital platforms.

This announcement marks an industry inflection point: the transition from fragmented edge AI point solutions to the first complete, edge-native platform. For the first time, organizations can develop, deploy, and manage AI entirely at the edge — eliminating the compromises that have limited edge AI adoption to pilots and demonstrations.

“Since launching Latent Agent in June, we’ve focused on completing our end-to-end edge AI solution,” said Jags Kandasamy, CEO and Co-Founder of Latent AI. “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. Our strategic partnerships ensure these capabilities work seamlessly across the most demanding operational scenarios.”

Extending the Product Suite
Latent Assisted Label: Breaking the Data Bottleneck
Latent Assisted Label transforms data annotation with AI-driven automation, addressing one of the most critical bottlenecks in AI development. Selected as a cohort winner in the U.S. Army’s xTech AI Grand Challenge—Latent AI’s third xTech achievement—this solution saves up to 87-99% of human effort with up to 85% accuracy, making data annotation up to 100x faster than traditional approaches.

The platform enables data analytics and automates repetitive labeling, flags low-confidence results for expert review, and enables field-ready annotation in real-time. Now available as a plugin for FiftyOne with a standalone version coming soon.

Latent Assisted Label integrates seamlessly with Latent AI’s Ruggedized Toolkit (RTK) and Latent Agent, providing end-to-end efficiency from data preparation through deployment. When integrated with RTK, the platform offers one-click labeling capabilities through RTK’s no-code interface, enabling rapid field annotation.

Latent Ruggedized Toolkit (RTK): Adaptive AI in the Field
The upgraded Latent Ruggedized Toolkit brings real-time, field-updatable AI to the edge. This comprehensive AI-powered solution works in networked denied environments, enabling operators to update UxS mission capabilities entirely in the field. Delivered in various form factors from tactical server to wearable computing, the Latent RTK can be coupled with Android or ATAK smartphones for fast one-click operation.

“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. We are addressing a direct need for more autonomous capabilities, especially for Group 1 and 2 drones,” said Sek Chai, CTO of Latent AI. “Key capabilities include support for multimodal sensors (electro-optical, infrared, RF), zero-shot labeling, and model management. The toolkit builds upon proven innovations, leveraging from our efforts in the U.S. Army Project Linchpin and U.S Navy Project Overmatch.”

Latent Agent: The Foundation
Launched in June 2025, Latent Agent established the foundation for intelligent edge AI automation. As the industry’s first agentic edge AI platform, it eliminates the model-to-hardware guessing game through automated optimization powered by 12TB of model telemetry data. The addition of Latent Assisted Label and upgraded RTK completes the ecosystem.

Strategic Ecosystem Partnerships
Building on this product foundation, Latent AI has established strategic partnerships that extend capabilities across diverse operational environments:

  • Ditto – Integrates edge AI with peer-to-peer mesh networking for autonomous systems in contested environments. The team was selected as finalists in the U.S. Army’s xTechOverwatch competition.
  • Wind River – Combines Latent AI’s LEIP platform with Wind River’s RTOS platforms (VxWorks®, Wind River Linux, eLxr Pro) to deliver AI capabilities meeting aerospace and defense certification standards for mission-critical systems.
  • Voyager Technologies – Strategic investment brings Latent AI capabilities to orbital environments and space-based platforms, enabling real-time intelligence operations where cloud solutions are impractical.

Defense, aerospace, and critical infrastructure organizations now have access to a complete edge AI solution—from automated data labeling through field deployment to intelligent management—spanning ground-based autonomous systems to orbital platforms.
