Phaidra deploys AI agents for AI factories. Our two product lines cover both the facility and IT sides of traditional data centers and "AI factories." Phaidra Prism is an LLM-first AI assistant to the on-site operations teams in mission critical facilities. The Prism platform identifies, prioritizes and provides actionable insights to any issues in the facility mechanical systems. This platform also includes an LLM for natural language interaction between ops staff and their BMS, CMMS and EPMS - unifying silod systems and providing a simpler way for operations staff to make better decisions, faster. Phaidra Factory includes a line of purpose-built AI agents to orchestrate the power, cooling and workload management systems in AI factories. The first of these AI agents currently available is the Phaidra Factory DTC Liquid-cooling agent. This agent sits at the CDU controller and optimizes the TCS loop to deliver step function improvements in thermal stability, reliability and energy efficiency. This AI agent can be deployed across thousands of CDUs and dramatically reduces the thermal spikes that occur when AI workloads ramp up. Phaidras AI agents work to maximize tokens per watt and reduce the overall power needed for cooling, enabling more power for IT deployment. Our co-founders and leadership team represent the combination of deep AI and machine learning expertise and data center operational experience from companies like Google-Deepmind and AWS with the applied knowledge of mission critical cooling systems from organizations like Trane Technologies and Johnson Controls. We are purpose-built for the data center industry.

Hyper is building digital layer for the physical world. Augmented Reality will take technology beyond the screen, and enable a much richer real-world experience. Across every aspect of our daily lives, this new technology will make it possible to pull up overlays of information on anything we’re curious about, and will be useful in all sorts of ways. Our AR platform brings this into physical locations, enabling every business to serve their customers on a one-to-one basis, with guidance and information to supercharge their experience. To achieve this, our team of experts has developed innovative technology across three key areas - rapid, scalable indoor mapping; precise indoor positioning technology; and a user interface centred around people, not AR gimmicks. Based in London, we’re a rapidly growing team who have spent years building world-leading mapping, positioning and AR products. Were supported by some of the most prominent investors in technology and retail including the ex-CTOs of Macy’s, Sainsbury’s and Tumblr; the founder of Indeed Jobs; and the first VC fund to invest in Oculus VR. And were only just getting started.

We turn AI from a tool people experiment with into a capability teams rely on. Towards AI runs two connected ventures. Towards AI Learning has trained 500,000+ AI practitioners since 2019 through our courses, book, publication, and newsletters (200,000+ subscribers), and converts software developers into AI engineers and forward-deployed engineers. Towards AI Deployment puts them to work inside private equity firms, portfolio companies and funds, building custom AI agents and automation in pods with deployment strategists who joined us from Palantir, BCG, UBS, J.P. Morgan, and Aurelius Growth Capital. Production lessons flow back into what we teach, and our best students become the engineers who build. We believe AI initiatives fail when organisations lack the skills, education, and deployment capability to realise value, so we train your team while we build.
