Discover is innovative software, originally co-designed with the Home Office, Metropolitan Police, and National Crime Agency, funded by the Defence and Security Accelerator (DASA – DSTL). It tracks the dissemination of harmful content online, including:1521-page terrorist manifestos and radicalising content. 174-page paedophile playbooks and AI prompts generating child sexual abuse imagery. Incel manifestos and materials inciting violence against women and girls. Following a successful pilot with a digital evidence preservation company for a leading luxury watch brand, Discover is now being applied to tackle the £80bn counterfeit sales and brand impersonation detection market. Current brand protection methods rely on manual keyword curation, extensive false alarm filtering, and manual result annotation—challenges even for a single moderate-length watch specification document. Discover operates topic-independently across 42 languages and has significant potential for broader applications, providing potential for growth. Market research shows it can rapidly automate costly manual processes. Discover empowers businesses to control their e-commerce, boosting turnover and customer satisfaction, and protects vulnerable online. Investment will enable team expansion to meet growing demand, targeting a £55m ARR within five years (overall projection £89m) based on 1,200 brands (pilot company alone has 1,800), alongside existing markets where we hold a competitive edge.
