About Futr AI
Futr AI is building the infrastructure layer for safe, scalable AI interaction with the 1.7 billion people excluded by conventional AI architectures – solving one of the hardest problems in AI deployment: zero-tolerance environments where hallucinations are not acceptable risks, but existential threats.
Founded in 2017, we pioneered what we call SecureGen AI – a fundamentally different architecture that inverts the traditional generative AI model and results in zero hallucinations, full auditability, and government-grade security. This matters because we serve populations where AI mistakes have consequences. Our platform currently handles over 2 million monthly interactions for UK police forces managing domestic abuse cases, mental health charities supporting 70,000 crisis interventions annually, and local councils serving multilingual communities. We have achieved what most AI companies claim but cannot deliver: 100% accuracy in mission-critical environments, with ISO27001 certification and deployment across five UK police forces.
The technical challenge we solved is this: How do you make AI safe enough for a domestic violence victim seeking help at 3am, while maintaining the scalability and efficiency that makes AI valuable? Our answer combines proprietary NLP, real-time sentiment analysis, intelligent triage systems, and seamless human handoff architecture. We process 145-plus languages with cultural context preservation, deploy across 12-plus channels simultaneously, and maintain sub-second response times – all while guaranteeing that every response originates from human-approved content.
But the real breakthrough is what we are building next: Futr PathFinder, our AI companion platform for populations that traditional tech has failed. This is not a chatbot. It is persistent, relationship-based AI guidance that remembers users across sessions, adapts to individual skill levels, and actively guides people through complex tasks in real-time – whether that is applying for benefits, accessing healthcare, or navigating financial services. The innovation lies in transforming AI from transactional information retrieval into genuine capability-building.
The market opportunity is massive and underserved. Globally, 1.7 billion adults lack basic digital skills. Aging populations in developed markets struggle with mandatory online services. Refugees and immigrants face language and cultural barriers. Banks face financial inclusion mandates they cannot meet profitably. This is a multi-billion pound problem with no scalable solution, until now.
We have proven the model works. Since launching our SaaS platform in 2020, we have grown to 30-plus public sector and enterprise clients, achieved profitability at modest scale, and demonstrated that safe AI can serve the most challenging use cases. We are backed by Praetura Ventures, Britbots and Blackfinch Ventures, advised by former UK police chiefs and government digital leaders, and approved on UK government frameworks.
The path forward is clear: expand from UK public sector into global elderly care, refugee services, financial inclusion, and healthcare navigation. Each sector represents 50-million-plus addressable users and billions in potential revenue. We are not just building safer AI, we are building the infrastructure that makes AI accessible to populations that need it most but trust it least. That is how you build a category-defining company.
Our vision: become the global standard for safe AI interaction in zero-tolerance environments, proving that responsibility and scale are not trade-offs, but requirements for lasting impact.
