What Information Data Systems does

Information Data Systems (IDS) is a privately held, US-headquartered (Troy, Michigan) technology firm founded in 1996 with operating subsidiaries in the UK and across India (Intuitive Data Solutions Pvt. Ltd.). The company sells enterprise consulting services in artificial intelligence, blockchain, cloud infrastructure, and IoT/digital twin technologies to governments, large enterprises, central banks, and universities.

IDS has built a proprietary product portfolio layered on top of its services practice. Flagship offerings include Polyversity (an educational metaverse platform), the Bharat Blockchain Network (a nationwide hybrid blockchain network on Hyperledger Besu with 140+ university node operators), Trustflow (a blockchain supply-chain consortium), SungeiX (a CBDC platform), DxAnalyte (AI analytics), Patient Connect (healthcare connectivity), FaceRec-Corporate (facial recognition), and TrueAvatar (an NFT marketplace). The company is one of 25+ global Hyperledger Certified Service Providers and a Principle Member of the Metaverse Standards Forum, and runs a self-serve blockchain developer certification platform at learn.idssoft.com.

Revenue is generated through professional services and managed services engagements, product/platform licensing to enterprises and government bodies, training course enrollment fees, and ecosystem programs supported by AICTE and STPI APIARY. IDS monetizes its regulatory and academic relationships — particularly with India's AICTE, the Ministry of Education, and a network of 140+ universities — alongside named sovereign engagements such as Central Bank of Nigeria E-Naira training and the MAS Global CBDC Challenge. The company is founder/management-controlled with no disclosed external funding and a field-sales distribution model spanning 8+ Indian cities plus the US and UK.
