Seitec develops a software-defined seismic sensing platform that runs two software packages—UXOTrackS for detecting, localising and classifying unexploded ordnance impacts across weapons ranges, and Nightingale for passive seismic perimeter security, force protection, and counter-UAS classification. The company serves allied military operators and has achieved Australian Defence Force service entry for UXOTrackS. It holds paid trial contracts with the Air Warfare System Program Office and the Australian Office of National Intelligence and is advancing through the USAF Foreign Comparative Testing programme. Seitec is led by CEO Daniel Stevens and CTO Bevan Fairleigh and is headquartered in Canberra, Australia. The company plans to convert its trial pipeline into contracted revenue as it scales delivery and enters the US market.

Arkeus designs AI-powered hyperspectral sensing systems that enable autonomous drones to detect targets up to eight times farther than existing military optical systems in degraded conditions. Its solution processes electromagnetic-spectrum signals in seconds using a 4kg cube form factor, compared with traditional room-sized equipment that can require day-long processing. Founded in 2020 in Melbourne, the company reports that about 80% of its revenue comes from the U.S. market and that it works with the U.S. Department of Defense as well as manufacturers including Boeing and Textron. After closing a $25 million Series A at a $100 million valuation, Arkeus plans to establish manufacturing in Queensland and the United States to scale production.
