TAK ECOSYSTEM
Built for the Mission.
DS2 designs software for the Team Awareness Kit (TAK) ecosystem — shared maps, messaging and a common operational picture. Our focus is plugin development for ATAK, WinTAK, iTAK and TAK Server; integration with TAKX; and TAK development for mission planning.
We build plugins and integrations, not server deployments or training.

CAPABILITY
When the baseline client or server is not enough, a plugin carries the capability into the mission. DS2 develops custom plugins that connect sensors, vehicles, decision aids, AI alerts and planning workflows into Cursor on Target (CoT) traffic operators already use.

CLIENTS
We build plugins for the TAK clients operators carry and sit behind.
Recent and shipped client work includes ASI on ATAK, REGENT SQUIRE-TAK across the client family, VATN and Attollo on ATAK, Matbock and Intellisense ATAK plugins, and WinTAK work such as SREAF and TEKLA.
SERVER-SIDE
DS2 develops TAK Server plugins and modules — server-side extensions for messaging, data translation, telemetry and integration with the wider TAK fabric. Examples include a SOFWERX TAK Server plugin for POI and AI alert translation into CoT, a Nauticus TAK Server module alongside an ATAK plug-in, and a Turbine One TAK Server bridge for an AI detection application.
CROSS-PLATFORM
TAKX is the cross-platform TAK client for Linux and Windows. DS2 builds TAKX plugins and integrations — including ASI control and reporting on TAKX and GeoExPT aircraft-parking workflows on TAKX.
ON THE MAP
DS2 builds TAK software that puts mission planning where operators work — on the map, in the client, tied to CoT. A current example is REGENT SQUIRE-TAK: waypoint route planning, vehicle telemetry, video and vehicle C2 inside the TAK clients crews already use.
ATAK on device — field use of the clients DS2 plugins extend.
PROOF
Selected public work spans SOFWERX, Nauticus, Matbock, Intellisense, EOD/ADR, ASI, VATN, Turbine One, Attollo and REGENT — plus TEKLA and Roper integrations.
Operators coordinating on phone and tablet — the surfaces custom TAK plugins land on.
ENGAGE
Tell us the client or server surface, the data source and the mission outcome. We will scope a plugin or integration and build for the operator. Looking for a role? See defense software careers and open jobs.
ANSWERS
Custom ATAK, WinTAK, iTAK and TAK Server plugins; TAKX integration; and TAK software for mission planning.
No. We build plugins and integrations, not server deployments or training.
TAKX is the cross-platform TAK client for Linux and Windows (see the TAK Product Center at tak.gov). It interoperates with ATAK, WinTAK and iTAK. DS2 builds TAKX plugins and integrations.
