Documented Timeline and Origin of the HAIL Tactical Medical Communications Capability

Purpose

This page documents the factual timeline and origin of the HAIL tactical medical communications capability, which I conceived and documented prior to the formation of R.A.I.N. Technologies LLC. It is published to clarify provenance using primary-source documentation. Subsequent public materials associated with HAIL and R.A.I.N. Technologies LLC, including statements by Stone Hazlett, have attributed origination elsewhere; this record presents the underlying timeline and documentation so that provenance can be evaluated directly.

This is not an opinion piece. It is a factual record.

Timeline

2017–2019: Conception and Documentation

Between 2017 and 2019, I conceived and documented the foundational concept, system architecture, UX designs, and workflows for a tactical medical communications capability.

• 2019 first-pass UX and workflow design (2)
• 2019 first-pass UX and workflow design (A)
• 2019 first-pass UX and workflow design (B)
• 2019 original DACASEVAC concept (A)
• 2019 original DACASEVAC concept (B)
• 2019 original DACASEVAC concept (C)

These artifacts are provided as contemporaneous design records illustrating early system architecture, workflows, and user interface concepts.

2019–Present: Commercialization and Attribution

Following my departure, RAIN developed and marketed a product later known as “HAIL,” reflecting a similar foundational architecture and workflow model to the concepts I documented prior to the company’s formation.

Referenced public material:

• Published article excerpt (origin attribution context)

I dispute that attribution based on the documented timeline and the absence of any written assignment or transfer of my pre-existing intellectual property.

In private correspondence, RAIN leadership asserted that the company owned the intellectual property “since inception” and that I “relinquished ownership” upon departure. Those assertions are not supported by the documentary record below, and the underlying ownership and attribution issues remain unresolved.

The underlying correspondence is not published here in order to preserve privacy and to keep this record focused on primary-source documentation. It can be made available to appropriate professional audiences, including legal counsel, as needed.

Closing

This record is published so that the factual timeline and place of origin are clear.

Readers may review the documents and draw their own conclusions.
