Adarga, a provider of AI-driven information intelligence, has been selected to supply its Vantage software for the Defence Support, part of the UK’s Strategic Command.
Defence Support has selected Adarga’s Vantage software to accelerate analysis as it explores threats to UK military operations worldwide in a fast-moving information environment.
As well as streamlining work processes, Defence Support analysts are benefitting from Vantage’s unique search, discovery, and generative AI capabilities to deliver enriched and enhanced intelligence outputs to decision-makers.
Users can now more rapidly interpret a large volume of curated data that has been automatically collated, contextualized, and connected – as well as translated from over 75 languages – with a tool purpose-built to augment rather than replace human intelligence.
Employing the Vantage software, Defence Support have reported an increase in the quality of their insights with the ability to access a wide range of global information that would typically remain inaccessible. This is not only broadening its knowledge base but also introducing diverse perspectives on various topics.
Adarga’s Question and Answer (Q&A) function has also been recognized as a powerful tool by Defence Support. Its specialist capability enables users to generate natural language answers to complex questions rapidly and ask questions of specific outputs and reports that have been generated in the platform.
The Q&A capability is powered by its carefully calibrated large language model and features robust guardrails to ensure it is used safely and with confidence, providing citations and links back to source documents.
Adarga’s Senior Vice President Public Sector, Charlie Maconochie, commented, “Driving efficiency and boosting productivity is undoubtedly a key priority for defence, and human-machine teaming is a fundamental driver of this. We are delighted to hear that Defence Support are not only saving significant amounts of time through the use of Vantage, but can also more effectively scale their research efforts and produce better results having had more time to focus on higher-level analysis.
“Our software provides a powerful means to uncover insights that may otherwise have been missed, with the ability to interrogate and contextualise both proprietary and publicly available data in one secure place. This is a vital capability for our armed forces and we are proud to be supporting the Defence Support team in generating well-informed and nuanced analyses for more strategic, evidence-based decision-making.”
