stci.us operates in the CBRNE (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, Explosive) space—a market where mistakes aren't measured in churn rates, but in casualties. Their 1993 founding date predates the modern startup ecosystem by decades, giving them institutional credibility that no Series B competitor can buy. The company's SVP of Operations, Richard Shoaf, represents this operational DNA: deep expertise over flashy pivots.

With only 515 monthly visits, stci.us defies every growth hacking playbook. Yet 42% of traffic is direct—a sign of a referral-driven business where reputation matters more than SEO. Their top keyword is a literal address: '1200 lake saint louis blvd lake saint louis mo 63367' (170 monthly searches). This isn't a search strategy; it's a physical destination for hands-on training. The 32% organic traffic suggests they're found by those who need them, not by those browsing.
