BigBear.ai Holdings, Inc.

BigBear.ai Holdings, Inc. builds mission-ready artificial intelligence and decision-intelligence software for defense, national security, supply chain, and digital identity use cases. The company was founded around U.S. defense and intelligence missions, and its platform combines predictive analytics, computer vision, biometrics, machine learning, and generative AI into software and services deployed in complex, high-security environments. It sells primarily to federal government customers, while also serving select commercial partners that need better visibility, automation, and operational decision support. BigBear.ai’s business is shaped by security clearance requirements, government procurement cycles, and the need to integrate AI into sensitive workflows where trust and compliance matter as much as model performance.
