Boryviter Develops AI Solutions for Ukraine’s Defence
AI is not a distant future but an effective tool that is already transforming approaches to operational planning, training, and decision-making in the military. It’s not only about improving the accuracy of strikes — it’s primarily about optimizing processes and driving systemic change within the Armed Forces.
Today, many IT companies specializing in artificial intelligence are already working in the defence sector, contributing their expertise to strengthen Ukraine’s capabilities. AI is also widely used by weapons manufacturers — last year alone, nearly 2 million UAVs equipped with AI technologies were produced in Ukraine.
Within the Boryviter Center of Excellence, the Laboratory of Intelligent Technologies develops and implements innovative solutions for Ukraine’s Defence Forces. Its work covers a wide range of areas — from analyzing open-source data and systematizing large information flows to optimizing the training process using AI assistants.
Four laboratory-developed solutions have already been integrated into Boryviter’s activities.
These include the automatic transcription of audio recordings within a closed IT infrastructure, which ensures the secure handling of sensitive data, and the automated analysis of open sources, which helps monitor enemy activity with minimal human involvement and high accuracy.
Several laboratory projects are now being integrated into the daily work of military units, with plans to expand the number of such collaborations.
“Artificial intelligence is just one of many possible technological responses to the enemy. It delivers results, but we shouldn’t view it as an end in itself. It’s crucial to use this tool to drive transformation within the Defence Forces and increase personnel efficiency,” — Andrii Boichuk, Head of the Laboratory of Intelligent Technologies at the Boryviter Center of Excellence.

He adds that it is essential to train a broader range of military personnel in the use of modern technologies. This approach will improve efficiency not only within advanced brigades but across all defence units — enhancing data processing speed, command effectiveness, and overall operational performance.
The role of artificial intelligence in the military sphere was a central topic at the IT Arena 2025 panel discussion. Participants explored issues such as trust-building in AI systems within the military, the ethics of AI deployment, scaling challenges, and the integration of AI into intelligence, logistics, air defence, and cybersecurity systems.
Among the active participants were Andrii Boichuk, Head of the Laboratory of Intelligent Technologies at Boryviter, and William “Dollar” Young Jr., Senior Advisor at Green Flag Ventures and Associate Professor at Syracuse University. The discussion was moderated by Oleksii Dorohan, Executive Director of BRDO.
“Military technology is often designed for top-tier brigades that have their own R&D capabilities. What we need now is simpler, more reliable artificial intelligence — solutions that are stable, predictable, and accessible to every soldier,” — Andrii Boichuk.
