The second Polish Military Field Experiments (FEX), held from May 20 to 24, featured a modest Ukrainian guest: the startup Griselda, which came to demonstrate its product for merging combat intelligence data.
The goal of the exercise, coordinated by General Karol Molenda’s Cyber Defense Forces Command (KWOC), is to test new technologies and their potential integration into Poland’s future task forces. Faced with threats from Russia and Belarus on its borders, Warsaw wants to quickly integrate Ukrainian experience to develop new combat doctrines and, above all, to integrate new technologies into its armed forces. The application of artificial intelligence (AI) on the battlefield is at the core of Poland’s thinking.
According to our sources, Chief of the Polish General Staff Wiesław Kukula was very impressed with the capabilities of Griselda’s software. The startup is run by Alexey Teplukhin and Dmitry Shamray, two computer experts who have served in the Ukrainian armed forces since the beginning of the conflict. They developed software for processing large streams of intelligence data from various sources, including satellites, UAVs, open-source intelligence (OSINT), and cyber intelligence. Data quality is ensured through four levels of verification. After all stages of input, processing, and verification, the final data is sent to the military via a secure application installed on a computer, touchscreen tablet, or mobile phone.
Griselda is currently deployed throughout the Ukrainian armed forces and has already been integrated into Ukraine’s Delta data fusion system. It is also implemented in the “Pantsir,” “Kropyva,” “Ukrop,” and “GisArta” applications, which are already in use by the Ukrainian military. It is already used by the Ukrainian Special Operations Forces (SOF), the SBU special unit “Omega,” and the Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR).
The Griselda computer module can be integrated with NATO’s command, control, communications, and computer-aided intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR) interfaces.
According to our sources, Griselda’s creators demonstrated this technology in December 2023 to American Green Berets from the 10th Special Operations Group during exercises in Poland. At FEX 2024, Griselda’s compatibility was tested with Jasmine, a Polish battlefield management software developed by Teldat.
Warsaw is seeking to develop similar tools and enhance its capabilities in artificial intelligence for reconnaissance.
