From cartel drones skimming the border to adversarial systems surveilling critical infrastructure, the UAS threat has outpaced traditional response. Federal agencies face an urgent challenge: how to detect, understand, and act before drones launch. This white paper outlines how Primer’s AI helps government teams go left of launch—fusing OSINT and classified data to expose emerging threats, surface pre-attack indicators, and deliver verified intelligence at machine speed. Built for operators, analysts, and decision-makers, Primer turns noise into insight and shifts the counter-UAS mission from reactive to proactive strategy.
