CSG launches ChatCSG with new federal contract giving America’s leaders powerful new insights on national security

Fri, 14 Nov 2025 02:32:37 GMT

ANNAPOLIS, Md., Nov. 13, 2025 — Capital Solutions Group, LLC , a leading provider of artificial intelligence, cloud, and cybersecurity solutions for defense and intelligence missions, today announced it has been awarded a sole-source contract to deliver a highly customized generative AI solution to a federal customer. The contract award also marks the official launch of the company’s proprietary large-language-model platform, ChatCSG , a secure, mission-ready AI environment engineered for national security and defense applications.

Under the new agreement, CSG will deploy an innovative AI solution that transforms how teams' access and interact with critical information by enabling secure, natural-language questions and contextually accurate responses drawn from trusted organizational knowledge. The platform enhances collaboration, streamlines knowledge sharing, and delivers actionable intelligence to government leaders - empowering faster, more informed decision-making on vital matters.

“This project is a milestone moment for CSG,” said Jeff May , CEO of CSG. “ChatCSG represents exactly what differentiates us in the highly competitive national security market. We’re not simply integrating existing AI tools - we’re designing proprietary, mission-specific capabilities that address the federal government’s toughest information challenges. Our team’s depth in artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and cloud engineering allows us to deliver AI that’s explainable, traceable, and responsibly built for classified environments.”

Introducing ChatCSG™

ChatCSG is a proprietary generative AI platform designed and developed by CSG to meet the rigorous demands of national security and defense environments. Built on a retrieval-augmented LLM architecture, the product enables users to pose secure, natural-language queries and receive precise, data-driven answers drawn directly from verified internal knowledge sources.

Key differentiators include:

Model Context Protocol Integration: Implements the emerging Model Context Protocol (MCP) standard for machine-native APIs, enabling secure, structured interaction across tools, datasets, and systems.
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG): References authoritative datasets before generating responses to minimize “hallucinations.”
Real-Time Integration: Leverages internal/external APIs and tooling in a manner consistent with today's standards.
Responsible AI Compliance: Incorporates DoD-mandated Responsible AI (RAI) frameworks, Chief Digital & Artificial Intelligence Office (CDAO) guardrails, and Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF).
Tailored Security and Auditability: Traceable, explainable AI outputs designed for sensitive operations.
CSG’s proprietary AI platform is already being customized to accelerate cybersecurity mission operations, threat detection, and knowledge management for defense and intelligence teams.
This award is the third major milestone in recent months for CSG, following its joint-venture Patrius LLC’s intelligence-community contract win and the appointment of national security technology leader Larry Denton as chief operating and growth officer . The company plans to expand its footprint across the defense and intelligence sectors, investing in proprietary IP and emerging AI technologies to strengthen U.S. mission readiness.
