Overview

Reveal Technology develops offline, real-time intelligence platforms for contested, mission-critical environments, with flagship products Farsight (drone video to 3D maps on smartphones without internet) and Identifi (mobile biometrics for identity vetting). Its software-first approach targets the tactical edge and is deployed across U.S. Army, Special Operations Command, Marine Corps, law enforcement, and international customers including Ukrainian, UK, and Israeli defense forces. The company says it has increased revenue tenfold year over year and has active production deployments with multiple U.S. special operations and service programs. Reveal emphasizes solutions that work without cloud connectivity and plans to expand into electronic warfare, cyber, autonomy, and technologies for tactical robotics. The team is veteran-heavy (about 50% active military and veterans) and is led by founder and CEO Garrett Smith, a Marine reserve officer who co-founded the company in December 2018. Reveal Technology develops mobile edge software for defense customers, chiefly Farsight, which converts drone video into fresh, high-resolution 3D maps viewable and analyzable on smartphones. The company also offers Identifi, a mostly smartphone-based biometrics and human identity data collection and verification system acquired via DFL Technology. Reveal says Farsight can simulate adversary fields of view, provide route planning, and surface measurements and analytics to reduce cognitive burden on operators. The startup is already in production with multiple U.S. Department of Defense programs, including the Army, Special Operations Command, the Marine Corps, and some foreign militaries. Founded in December 2018 by a U.S. Marine Corps officer and three colleagues, the company aims to scale its team and expand its product lineup to “dominate the mobile and edge space.” Financially, Reveal recently closed a growth round to fund that expansion. Reveal Technology builds Farsight, a visual-analytics and edge AI software platform that delivers unit-level actionable intelligence, ISR, and rapid situational awareness without network connectivity. Farsight blends computer vision, applied AI, and edge computing to produce real-time 2D mapping, near-real-time 3D mapping, line-of-sight analysis, route planning, automated video and imagery exploitation, and sensor-agnostic edge data processing. The platform is designed for austere tactical environments where power, compute, and bandwidth are limited, enabling decision timelines measured in minutes and seconds rather than hours and days. Reveal’s AI-powered insights and decision aids aim to reduce cognitive burden for dismounted warfighters and special operators. Founded in 2018 and headquartered in Silicon Valley, the company is led by co-founders including CEO Garrett Smith and a team of combat veterans, special operators, and technologists. Beyond special operations, Reveal and its investor Booz Allen identify potential applications in natural disaster response, public safety crises, maritime search and rescue, and other mission-critical use cases. Reveal Technology develops detailed maps by stitching data from short drone flights and applies machine learning to provide predictive analysis of potential threats. The company ships an app called Farsight that runs on ground control and mobile devices to generate context-rich maps for operators and control centers. Reveal has secured initial contracts with the U.S. military and works with the Defense Innovation Unit, using SBIR-style programs and other DoD initiatives to generate non-dilutive early revenue. That DoD access also positions the company to pursue state and local uses such as drone mapping for natural disaster response in California. Reveal has attracted venture investment support from Defy Ventures and 8VC while bringing on senior advisors from the defense and cybersecurity sectors. Leadership includes veterans and former Kespry engineers who designed the product with dual-use (defense-first, civilian-applicable) applications in mind.
