a11oy · Defense Readiness

SZL Holdings is aligned to multiple federal and allied innovation pathways. This page shows the fit and the honest maturity — MODELED physics bounds + live signed software APIs, not flown hardware — and links each pathway to the live a11oy surface that backs it. It exposes no private submission content. Every maturity claim labelled MODELED LIVE ROADMAP.
Posture

SZL builds on an explicit doctrine of honest maturity: we publish what is MEASURED, label what is MODELED, and claim only what has a checkable artifact. The differentiator is not a flown prototype — it is verifiable provenance + assurance, sovereign on-metal compute, and a refusal to overclaim. Below: where a11oy and its surfaces fit federal pathways, and exactly how mature each claim is.

What we are. A governed-AI command platform (deny-by-default 8-gate policy engine, DSSE-signed verdicts/receipts, supply-chain assurance mesh, hash-chained governance ledger, hybrid post-quantum signing) plus MODELED hard-physics PNT bounds and a sense-and-evidence counter-UAS surface. What we are not. We do not claim flown hardware, a fielded prototype, or “proven trust.” Λ is Conjecture 1 — advisory, < 1.0, never a theorem.

Where we align

DARPA PINPOINT

DSO · DARPA-SN-26-88 · PNT
MODELED
Precision Inertial Navigation & Positioning — highly accurate nav/positioning where GPS is unavailable or unreliable. Our PNT engine is a clean-room, closed-form quantum-sensing and GNSS-resilience stack.
Fit: closed-form cold-atom interferometer sensitivity certificate (at/above the Standard Quantum Limit), RAIM/AGC/SQM deny-by-default spoof fusion, GPS-denied coasting figure-of-merit, and fundamental compute/energy bounds — all served as live signed software APIs.
Honest maturity: MODELED closed-form physics (stdlib, deterministic), not flown hardware. The sensor certificate is labelled MODELED · STRUCTURAL-ONLY.

Special Notice (advance notice of a future program); responses due Jul 13, 2026. DARPA-SN-26-88

JIATF 401

NDAA FY26 §912 · counter-sUAS T&E
LIVE
Joint Interagency Task Force 401 approves counter-sUAS systems for Department use and published standardized C-UAS test & evaluation criteria (Apr 28, 2026). Our counter-UAS surface senses and evidences — it does not jam, spoof, take over, or kinetically defeat.
Fit: forensic-evidence and rules-of-engagement alignment — a live Λ decision plus an ECDSA-P256 DSSE-signed forensic verdict, verified drone fingerprints, and a Remote-ID validator. The value is admissible, replayable evidence, not effects.
Honest maturity: live sense-and-evidence surface with signed verdicts; each T&E criterion is crosswalked honestly as Demonstrated / Modeled / Not-yet / Out-of-scope — never assumed.

NATO DIANA

Defence Innovation Accelerator · dual-use
FIT
DIANA accelerates dual-use deep tech across the alliance. a11oy’s governed-AI assurance and sovereign-compute provenance are dual-use by construction — civilian supply-chain integrity and defense AI governance share the same substrate.
Fit: verifiable provenance + assurance mesh (3-axis attestation, C2PA content credentials, hash-chained ledger), aligned to EU AI Act Article 50 (effective Aug 2, 2026) and NIST AI RMF / ISO 42001 via a live compliance crosswalk.
Honest maturity: live signed software APIs + compliance crosswalk; trans-Atlantic deployment is a roadmap engagement, labelled as such.

AFWERX SBIR

Dept. of the Air Force · small-business R&D
FIT
AFWERX SBIR funds small-business innovation with a defense transition path. As a US-based small business (NAICS 541715, <500 employees) with live, signed, sovereign-compute software, SZL fits the R&D-to-transition model.
Fit: governed counter-UAS sense-and-evidence + AI-governance assurance — a software-first capability with a clear dual-use transition and a verifiable-provenance moat.
Honest maturity: live software APIs + MODELED physics bounds; hardware integration and a fielded prototype are roadmap, labelled honestly. SAM/UEI/CAGE founder-supplied.

The honesty is the feature

Doctrine v11 as a defense-acquisition advantage

In a market where “signed: yes” has already certified a supply-chain worm (see the Mini Shai-Hulud case study), an evaluator’s hardest problem is telling a real capability from a confident slide. Our doctrine is built to make that easy:

PrincipleWhat it means for an evaluator
Prove-or-downgradeEvery DONE claim has a checkable artifact: a pushed commit SHA, an HTTP 200 from a named endpoint, or a verifying signature. No artifact → it is labelled RECOMMENDED or ROADMAP, not claimed.
Label every valueMEASURED / MODELED / SAMPLE / STRUCTURAL-ONLY. A modeled physics bound is never dressed up as flown telemetry.
Never overclaimNo fabricated numbers, TRL, signatures, partnerships, or flown-hardware claims. Λ is Conjecture 1 (advisory), never “proven trust.”
Behaviour over attestationWe trust the behaviour we can observe and the receipts we can replay — not the attestation we were handed.

The result is a capability statement an evaluator can verify in a browser, line by line, against live endpoints — the opposite of a black box.

Engagement

Founder is handling SAM.gov registration (via an APEX Accelerator) and federal submission mechanics; the engineering artifacts behind each pathway are live and verifiable now at a-11-oy.com. Private submission content is not published here by design.
