We are looking for a university, AI assurance or audit firm to independently test trusted AI for compliance in our BridgeAI bid

PARTNERS WANTED TO TEST AND VALIDATE TRUSTED AI FOR COMPLIANCE

SherlockIT is the sovereign corporate intelligence engine for regulated industries. We are preparing a consortium bid for the BridgeAI Deployment Catalyst (AI for Assurance and Compliance), which closes on 8 December 2026 at 11:00am. A UK financial or professional services firm will run the pilot, and we want one more partner alongside them.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

1. A university or research group in trustworthy or explainable AI, or AI evaluation. Independent testing of our results.

2. An AI assurance, audit, or regulatory-compliance firm. Practical input on what "evidencing compliance" means for a regulated team.

3. An industry body, or a second firm that would use the solution. A letter of support, as the call asks.

WHAT YOU WOULD DO

Test SherlockIT on representative cases and tell us, independently, where it is strong and where it is not.

WHAT IS IN IT FOR YOU

- A named role in an Innovate UK-supported consortium.

- Hands-on access to a working, explainable AI system built on data we own, to evaluate on real cases.

- A place in Phases 2 and 3 if the project is invited forward.

WHAT WE BRING

- Data infrastructure we own, connected directly to 120+ official government registries.

- A knowledge graph and fine-tuned LLM and AI agents that follow the evidence across borders. Every answer is explainable, cited to its source, and confidence-scored.

- Sanctions and PEP screening linking listed people to the companies they control or hold an interest in, with each match shown with a confidence level. Continuous monitoring is built in.

- Working today: our investigation assistant has answered 2,103 real questions, and 61 of 61 fresh fact-check questions were correct against registry data.
