Building the next wave of U.S.-made, industry-transforming, grassroots UAS startups.

Who We Are

 

EnCor is a U.S.-based, AI-powered venture + manufacturing studio that partners with private stakeholders as their exclusive technology integration partner.


We specialize in:

  • Drone hardtech incubation (airframes, avionics, payloads, and MRO depots)
  • AI-enabled operational infrastructure
  • Non-traditional capital stack design (grants, DAFs, tribal corridors, public-private models)


Our mission: accelerate early-stage ventures from napkin sketch to flight-ready hardware without burning through traditional VC.

Business Model

 

We operate exclusively through independent joint ventures (iJVs). EnCor itself does not directly sell drones or consumer products. Instead, we co-develop ventures with:


  • Founders & grassroots operators
  • Tribal nations & sovereign corridor partners
  • Family offices, private equity, & defense stakeholders


EnCor is the engine.

We power each venture’s backend through IP strategy, AI-driven procurement, and U.S.-based manufacturing pathways — so partners can focus on mission delivery.

FAQs

Please reach us at partner@encorinc.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

No. EnCor does not manufacture, sell, or distribute any goods or services directly. All commercial operations are executed through independent joint ventures, each with its own insurance coverage & operational oversight.
 


EnCor is a vertically integrated technology integration partner—not a traditional incubator. We deploy agentic AI procurement systems to scale backend venture ops & help guarantor private investment using follow-on non-traditional capital—such as grants / donor-advised funds (DAFs)—rather than relying solely on VC burn.


While we don’t directly fundraise, we specialize in structuring non-dilutive capital strategies aligned with mission-1st investors. We help shape & secure pathways through grants, DAFs, & public-private mechanisms to unlock alternative sources of venture funding.
 


Each venture is a standalone legal entity, co-owned by its founding partners & stakeholders. EnCor retains cashflow participation rights based on our contributions to systems design, integration, & backend operational management.
 


Email us with a brief overview of the signal you need help tackling. Even if it’s just a list of grassroots-level pain points—not yet a fully formed IP—that’s enough for us to begin building a capital stack. If aligned, we’ll schedule a partner discovery call to explore a joint venture formation & full systems integration.
