Egide is developing a new class of low-cost electrically-propelled interceptor drones designed to counter cheap enemy drones and strike munitions at scale. Alongside the hardware, the company builds Mystique, a hardware-agnostic software platform that integrates distributed sensors, AI-driven detection, and layered interception systems across diverse weapon platforms. Founded by former MBDA engineers Simon Calonne and Florian Audigier, the company targets NATO allies scaling up layered air and missile defence procurement.
