An AI powered software collaboration bringing accountable and transparent Silicon Valley supply chain expertise and technology to the Defence sector
Tiberius Aerospace GRAIL is a next-generation, AI-powered software platform designed to transform how weapon systems are manufactured, evaluated, deployed and sustained and is a foundational pillar of the Tiberius Defence-as-a-Service (DaaS) model.
GRAIL was born from the desire to rapidly quantify and analyse all available data across multiple defence related systems and domains to align how weapon systems are evaluated, designed, manufactured, deployed and sustained with best practice from Silicon Valley. The first output of this GRAIL analysis was SCEPTRE, launched in May 2025 at Future Artillery. Having been positively received by multiple key defence organisations, GRAIL is now being launched as a platform to empower NATO members, global allies and the defence industry with an agile defence ecosystem, independent weapon analysis and intelligent national resilience planning tool. User-centric, problem-orientated, data-driven and bringing full accountability and transparency to capability development, GRAIL fuses real-time insights from both the battlefield and technology sector, to deliver war-winning capabilities at affordable, relevant and scalable speed. While technology is evolving at lightning speed on the battlefield, an increasingly contested peace demands economic agility and industrial innovation at pace. GRAIL analyses, quantifies and qualifies solutions to these strategic challenges, delivering national capital efficiencies and enhanced domestic resilience.
GRAIL enables a decentralised, data-driven and collaborative defence ecosystem (GRAIL Alliance) where contractors, suppliers, manufacturers and allied governments work together to build faster, smarter and more adaptive defence capabilities while ensuring interoperability and maintaining sovereign controlled sourcing. At its core, GRAIL comprises two critical modules; Lethality and Agility. GRAIL Lethality calculates weapon system relative cost and efficiency against target sets in all environments, enabling allied members to objectively assess inventory, investment and system-of-system balance. GRAIL Agility establishes a component marketplace for thousands of suppliers to collaborate and compete in a secure, vetted and managed environment. GRAIL Agility ensures every vetted manufacturer is exposed to a global community of technology vendors who compete on price and performance in a continuous and transparent process of spiral development, delivering timely, data-validated, war-winning solutions at affordable cost. The benefits of GRAIL are available to all vetted contractors, OEMs, sub-system suppliers, academic labs and government organisations by joining the GRAIL Alliance. Unlocking the full potential of the dual-use industrial base, GRAIL Alliance members benefit from recurring, trusted exposure to MoDs across allied nations. The GRAIL Alliance is also being launched alongside GRAIL today. Already, the Alliance is on the cusp of onboarding 100 vetted organisations with more joining every day.
Tiberius will be participating in a DSEi panel discussion ‘Defence-as-a-Service (DaaS): Continuous innovation – decoupled manufacturing’ on Wednesday, 10th September 2025 at 1500 hrs at the Cyber & Specialist Operations Command (CSOC) keynote forum. Fusing UK and US defence innovation expertise with current operational experience, GRAIL and DaaS will be central themes.
Andy Baynes, Co-founder and CSO of Tiberius said, “Defence supremacy is not defined by the most lethal systems alone. It is secured by weapons that endure, adapt, and evolve for every warfighter, in every domain. GRAIL transforms this challenge into strength by uniting breakthrough design with broad, secure mobilized national supply chains. For the first time, every allied nation can wield Silicon Valley style speed, agility and continuous innovation in pursuit of peace through strength.”
