Born from a decade in tech. Driven by a belief in ownership.
"Make AI ownership simple, private, and accessible to every business."
— The Hangar 28 Mission
Matt and TJ have spent over a decade working in the tech field, watching the industry slowly drift toward a rental economy. Subscriptions for everything. Tokens for every request. Your data living in someone else's server farm.
They started Hangar 28 because they believe there's a better way — especially for the small and local businesses that form the backbone of our communities.
We believe strongly that subscriptions and tokens are overrated. We believe in the power of owning your own data, controlling your own solution, and building technology that serves you — not the other way around.
Now, we're driven to integrate the latest tech and AI into small and local businesses — giving them the same competitive edge that enterprises enjoy, without the lock-in, the recurring costs, or the privacy compromises.
