Challenge

Specialized aerospace knowledge was siloed in expert minds, and traditional development cycles took years. Base LLMs lacked training in industrial manufacturing and specialized domains.

Solution

Built BlueGPT, a secure LLM gateway and multi-agent orchestration platform using Amazon Bedrock, Strands Agents SDK, EKS, OpenSearch, and GPU-accelerated EC2 instances.

Full Story

Blue Origin, the aerospace company founded by Jeff Bezos, needed to accelerate lunar hardware development while overcoming siloed specialist knowledge and traditional development cycles that took years. Standard LLMs lacked training in industrial manufacturing, thermal battery design, and regolith extraction.

Access 449+ AI use cases, 414+ tools, and adoption signal rankings.
