Overview

Problem Warfighters and mission planners face friction aligning personnel and resources to mission needs. Across flight, cyber, and logistics units, manual scheduling degrades readiness, misallocates talent, burns out teams, and introduces operational risk.

Solution Balance Scheduler is an AI platform that delivers optimized personnel and resource schedules in minutes—up to 90% faster than legacy tools. It automates workflows, adapts to mission constraints, and accounts for certifications and training, freeing skilled talent for higher-value work.

Field Validation Used in U.S. civilian healthcare and SPACECOM/JCO; now adapting (SBIR Phase II) for Space Force. Prior SBIRs supported UAV and missileer planning.

TRL TRL 7 — Commercially deployed with active defense prototyping.

Strategic Advantage Proprietary optimization engine for constraint-heavy ops. API-first, integration-ready, and adaptable—no data lock-in.

Go-to-Market Via past SBIRS (1-3), direct contracting, OTA, consortia (DIBC, NSTXL, SpEC), and partnerships.

Dual-Use Relevant in healthcare, logistics, energy, and more—anywhere resource agility matters.

Team Former USAF officers and technology ops experts with deep experience (gov and commercial) in AI, scheduling, and defense tech delivery. Includes PhD engineers, MIT-trained data scientists, and former leaders in federal health and cyber innovation.

Competitive Landscape PEX, Excel, and Puckboard lack adaptability. Duality offers scalable, flexible AI optimization built for defense operations.

Primary User Front-line schedulers and ops planners—plus CCs, readiness shops, and others needing visibility into personnel and asset availability.

User-Critical Problem “My LIFE is scheduling now. Every change costs time, morale, and mission readiness.”
