1. About us

Onebrief is building the future of military decisions. Our product is suitable for operational planning across the force, but we’re focused initially on large-scale OPLANs and CONPLANs.

We’re a true Silicon Valley startup. We’ve raised $21.1M in Venture Capital, and we’re backed by Y Combinator (original backer of Airbnb, Stripe, Reddit, Dropbox). Our advisors include Lieutenant General H.R. McMaster (former National Security Advisor), Lieutenant General Lewis Craparotta (former Commander, Marine Forces Pacific), and Brigadier General Mike Meese (former Social Sciences Dept Head at West Point).

We’re a small and rapidly growing team. We’re spread worldwide, across Korea, Hawaii, CONUS, the UK, and Germany. Today, there are 28 people on our team, up from 4 last January.

Our goal is to become the single collaborative planning solution – from the Battalion level up to the Joint Staff, for the US and our allies around the world.

You legally and ethically solve the problem with a few phone calls.

• You have technical skill You don’t need to code, but you do need to be savvy. Can you become a power user of our product and talk engineering with the customer?
