Norfolk, VA – September 2, 2025 – SalesE is proud to announce its selection and participation in the 757 Defense Accelerator, a premier program designed to accelerate dual-use technology companies that can deliver critical innovations to the Department of Defense and its partners.
The 757 Defense Accelerator, based in Norfolk, VA, brings together high-potential technology companies, defense experts, and prime contractors to advance solutions that directly support warfighters and strengthen U.S. national security. Over the course of the program, participating companies refine their strategies, build key defense partnerships, and align their offerings to urgent operational needs.
During the first week of kickoff, SalesE engaged with military leaders, innovation program managers, and other cohort members to share its vision for AI-powered decision-support systems with built-in guardrails. The company’s proprietary rule engine enables:
- System Integration – Connecting disparate systems into a unified decision-support framework.
- Data Prioritization – Automatically filtering non-urgent inputs while escalating critical signals, such as dangerous or high-priority contacts.
- Actionable Insights – Delivering relevant context with recommended next steps to speed up mission-critical decision-making.
- Adaptive Guardrails – Ensuring compliance, transparency, and operational reliability in AI-driven environments.
“Being selected for the 757 Defense Accelerator is a major milestone for SalesE,” said Jeana Bolanos, US Navy Veteran and CEO of SalesE. “We’re honored to work alongside defense stakeholders and technology partners who share our mission: building trusted AI systems that enhance decision-making and protect warfighters on the front lines.”
SalesE’s technology has already proven itself in the commercial sector supporting wholesale distributors, currently processing $100M in weekly opportunity volume and saving over 933 man-hours monthly through automation and optimization.
