About
IMPACT builds autonomous interceptor drones that ship in a sealed box. The box sits at the site it protects (data centers, power grid, airports, bases) with no crew on the pad. When sensors cue a hostile drone, an interceptor pierces its own frangible lid, launches, and rams the target, guided by onboard visual navigation that keeps working when GPS is jammed. Legacy effectors cost $1M+ per shot against $30k threats; our interceptors cost like the threat and launches scale with the swarm. Sites subscribe to protection instead of buying missiles: hardware, reloads, and monitoring included. Air defense as a Service.
