Remember the saying about “free” social networks? You are the product. The same applies to AI. When third-party AI providers offer services for “free” (or even $1 per agency), the real product is the sensitive data of the United States government. Don’t be fooled. Sending sensitive data off premises to be processed by models you do not own or control is a national security risk. Period.
OpenTeams builds the most reliable, scalable, and secure frontier AI tools and infrastructure that improve the government’s productivity, efficiency, and ability to make better decisions on behalf of the American taxpayer. We specialize in MOSA compliant, modular AI stacks that your teams can fully understand, control, and deploy securely across any environment.
Our mixed-source development process combines cutting-edge commercial open-source code with highly-customized adaptations that deliver smarter, parameter-efficient, fine-tuned LLMs, small models, and Agentic AI systems that outperform oversized one-size-fits-all commercial off the shelf systems. These customized models automate complex processes, enhance decision-making speed and accuracy, and operate with reduced human intervention, significantly improving efficiency and effectiveness. Custom built, mixed-source models are more efficient and hallucinate less, providing enhanced accuracy and transparency. Smaller models also use less compute saving significant amounts of electricity and water–ensuring Pillar II compliance with America’s AI Advantage Action Plan.
We build the most advanced AI in the commercial sector. Our clients include leading companies and organizations like Google, Meta, Amazon, NASA, and more. Our team includes many of the world’s most influential core maintainers and contributors to the foundational open source libraries that drive the AI industry. We’re core contributors in key ecosystems, from the Meta-founded PyTorch framework to Google’s TensorFlow and JAX.
For DoD & government customers, security is never an after-thought. We believe that government customers should NEVER allow the public’s data to train a government contractor’s model. Buying AI that gives sensitive data, housed on a third party off-prem platform is a national security risk.
And because not every organization has the same security posture, we offer privacy levels that align with different operational needs—so every agency can start with the right level of protection and scale as requirements grow.
We help government customers ensure the insight that their AI provides stays out of adversaries’ hands, by developing government owned, on-prem, custom-built frontier AI models and infrastructure that provides technological overmatch while minimizing national security risk.
