About Jiga

We're a fast-growing Series A, Y Combinator backed company transforming how hardware companies build their supply chains. We have strong and proven product market fit, growing exponentially YoY. Teams at companies like NASA, Collins, Archer and Leidos use our platform to get high-quality custom parts faster.
Market Timing
Defense supply chains are broken. Programs stall because procurement teams can't find qualified suppliers fast enough. Parts get delayed. Costs spiral. The US industrial base has capacity, but the system is inefficient and outdated.
The companies feeling this most acutely aren't the Lockheeds and Raytheons. It's the Tier 2 and Tier 3 suppliers, the manufacturers who actually make the parts that go into every fighter jet, satellite, and submarine. And it's the defense tech startups who are building the next generation of defense capability and need manufacturing partners who can move at startup speed.
These companies are under enormous pressure. They're dealing with suppliers who ghost them, miss deadlines, and deliver parts that don't meet spec. Their supply chains are their bottleneck and they know it. This is the problem we solve.
Jiga fixes this. We don't replace the existing supply base. We make it work better. Our platform uses AI to match defense buyers directly with the right US manufacturers, resolves issues before they happen, releases buyers and suppliers from admin, and builds lasting relationships that turn into repeat production wins.
