What Corpora.ai does

Corpora.ai is a UK-based private AI company (founded 2017, 11-50 employees, headquartered in Derby) that builds ColossioDB, a unified intelligence database combining graph, vector, temporal, and geospatial capabilities natively at 200+ petabyte scale, and delivers applications on top of it for frontier research, real-time strategic intelligence, and autonomous fleet security. The product portfolio comprises Catalyst (research and discovery intelligence that compresses multi-week research outputs into a 12-stage pipeline producing problem definitions, validations, roadmaps, patent drafts, and pitch materials in roughly 30 minutes), Curve (real-time strategic intelligence that continuously correlates global events, market movements, and geopolitical signals), and a 2026-launched autonomous fleet security suite (AOI-GBE, RACE, TAFA, HTMAD, HEAD) targeting defense and commercial UAV/maritime swarm operators. Supporting programmes include Cascade (university research acceleration), Crucible (pre-seed capital for DeepTech ventures), and a portfolio of operating companies (Convert Technologies, iTrend, UCR Group) plus a 2026 pre-seed investment in Lumenai.

The business model is enterprise field sales with quote-based, value-based pricing tied to agent count, inference volume, and compliance risk reduction, structured across Starter, Enterprise, and OEM tiers and segmented into subscription recurring revenue (AOI-GBE per-agent licensing, TAFA federated trust ledger, E4/FCA/IAT compliance-as-a-service, Catalyst subscriptions), high-margin licensing and royalties (RACE, HTMAD, JIT for OEMs and defense contractors), and professional services (consulting, integration, data curation, regulatory certification support). Pricing is not publicly disclosed and sensitive deployments operate under NDA with on-device, private cloud, and air-gapped options. Customer segments span universities and Russell Group-equivalent research institutions, DeepTech spin-outs, venture capital and growth equity firms, corporate R&D and innovation teams, defense and commercial UAV operators, healthcare and industrial IoT vendors, and regulated AI developers in finance and healthcare.

The company is led by co-founders Mel Morris CBE (Executive Chair; serial entrepreneur with eight exits valued at $7Bn including early Candy Crush) and Joe Jaroch (Technical Architect; built ColossioDB and prior cybersecurity/AI products generating billions in revenue). Corpora.ai's IP position rests on 15 patent-protected core assets (most still filed/pending) covering adversarial robustness, federated trust, neuro-symbolic explainability, and multi-agent coordination, with EU AI Act compliance achieved for the FCA finance component and ISO/IEC 27001 plus AI-safety certification targeted for Q2 2027. No completed funding round has been disclosed despite a pitch-deck phased plan of $2M-$3M grant, $5M-$7M seed, and Series A readiness at 18 months, and revenue remains undisclosed.

Revenue model

1. Autonomous Fleet Security (AOI-GBE): Per-agent, per-month licensing for UAV and maritime swarm operators. Near-term revenue stream targeting defense and commercial drone swarm operators.
2. Federated Trust Ledger (TAFA): Enterprise SaaS subscription for regulated edge AI deployments, including healthcare and industrial IoT. Medium-term revenue stream.
3. Explainability & Audit Platform (E4, FCA, IAT): Compliance-as-a-service for finance, healthcare, and defense with API tiering. Subscription-based with tiered plans (Starter, Enterprise, OEM).
4. Resilient Coordination Engine (RACE, HTMAD, JIT): High-margin licensing to OEMs and defense contractors for safe swarm operations. Long-term revenue stream.
5. Catalyst Research Platform: Research applications combined with accelerator programs and strategic capital to transform breakthrough research into frontier solutions for universities, scientific institutions, and DeepTech ventures.
6. Consulting & Integration Services: Custom deployment, data-curation, and regulatory certification support.

Core offering

Corpora.ai builds and sells an AI-powered research and intelligence platform anchored by ColossioDB, a unified database that natively combines graph, vector, temporal, and geospatial capabilities at 200+ petabyte scale. Its commercial products include Catalyst (research and discovery intelligence that produces project portfolios in approximately 30 minutes), Curve (real-time strategic intelligence correlating global events and emerging signals), the Cascade university acceleration program, and the Crucible pre-seed capital program, alongside autonomous fleet security frameworks such as AOI-GBE, RACE, TAFA, and HEAD.

Product overview

Corpora.ai is a UK-based technology company offering a unified platform for frontier research, strategic intelligence, and autonomous fleet security. The core offering comprises three integrated products: Catalyst (research and discovery intelligence), Curve (real-time strategic intelligence), and ColossioDB (the unified intelligence database powering both). The Cascade program accelerates university research commercialization. Additionally, the company has developed autonomous fleet security components including AOI-GBE, RACE, TAFA, and HEAD, which together form a modular platform for multi-agent AI resilience.
