Built for the reality of modern conflict, not the theory of it.

Apollo Minerva is a defense technology company founded by military operators, building next-generation battlefield software designed for real-world use.

We put several years of specialist training into a single tablet that soldiers carry. Our flagship platform, PERSES, compresses years of training and procedural expertise into a visual, intuitive solution that helps maintain technological and data sovereignty.

Designed for partner forces, PERSES is easy to use regardless of soldiers' native language, education, or training background.

Systems don't talk

Partner forces have different hardware, languages, and doctrine, yet are expected to coordinate under fire quickly.

Training doesn't scale

A combat-ready specialist takes 18+ months and hundreds of thousands to train.

Risk of trained defectors

Conventional military training carries the risk that building human capital can be turned against you.

Complexity overloads

Cognitive load on soldiers is increasing due to the diversity of weapons, drone feeds, and contested networks.


We put expertise in the system.

Platform-agnostic, PERSES takes cues from sensors attached to nearly any artillery piece for coordinated military response. Soldiers tap and drag pre-loaded intuitive icons, coordinating precision combat power or real-time intelligence gathering in seconds.

Weapon-agnostic. Network-agnostic. Doctrine-agnostic. PERSES integrates with what forces already own and makes it all work together.

Apollo Minerva doesn't replace basic soldiering—we reduce years of courses needed to become effective in the field to weeks, delivering real return on defense spending.
