Awarded an Innovate UK KTP scheme in association with the University of York

Innovate UK have funded a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) scheme. The University of York’s Department of Computer Science and Advai are collaborating in a KTP to accelerate the safe adoption of AI across multiple industry sectors. 

The KTP will develop a scalable, automated service platform for testing and assuring AI systems, bridging high-level user requirements and evidence-generating tools, thereby enabling key business decision-makers to trust their autonomous systems in a dynamically evolving harm landscape.

Established in 2020, Advai is a leading UK Deep Tech specialist focussed on AI Safety and Security. We test and evaluate Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning systems, enabling our customers to assure their Large Language Models, Computer Vision and other AI-enabled technologies for deployment in business-critical or regulated environments. 

Our tooling stress-tests, measures and improves AI robustness and real world performance, finding reliable operating boundaries and creating early warning systems to predict natural or adversarial issues. As one of the most successful companies to have come through the Defence and Security Accelerator, we work with both the UK Ministry of Defence and a range of safety-conscious enterprises.

Advai is a proud partner of the UK Government’s Frontier AI Taskforce, the research unit behind the world's first global AI Safety Summit.
