We are proud to announce a signed Strategic Engagement Letter with a scope of work with SMART (Strengthening the Mid-Atlantic Region for Tomorrow) – a nationally recognized organization driving innovation and workforce development supporting the Mid-Atlantic region.
SMART supports the broader U.S. Defense Industry in research and development, businesses, government labs, and professional associations, supported by and in collaboration with Federal and State Governments.

We can’t wait to collaborate and help shape the future of secure, scalable AI for mission-critical operations.”
This partnership represents a major milestone for LedgerAI, positioning the company as a contributor to national security, supply chain resilience, and the next generation of AI-powered infrastructure. Through this collaboration, our flagship platform, AuraVision, will support the integration into SMART’s ecosystem of public-private partnerships, supporting mission-driven R&D, defense manufacturing modernization, and secure AI applications at scale.

We’re honored to bring real-time, predictive intelligence to the organizations that power America’s innovation and defense readiness.”
SMART has supported over $625 million in strategic projects to date, bridging the gap between academia, federal agencies, and industry leaders. As a partner, LedgerAI will contribute to key national objectives including supply chain resilience, secure data automation, and advanced decision-making tools tailored to the evolving needs of defense and homeland security.
