Overview

Mind Foundry is an enterprise AI platform provider for carriers and other organizations deploying AI models in high-stakes environments, including insurance pricing, claims, and fraud detection. The company was founded in 2016 as a spin-out from the University of Oxford by Professors Stephen Roberts and Michael Osborne, whose academic backgrounds span Bayesian inference, signal processing, and probabilistic numerics.

The company delivers a continuous metalearning platform that allows AI models to adapt to changing data in production without manual retraining, while maintaining governance controls such as explainability, fairness monitoring, bias detection, and data drift alerting. The platform is designed to meet regulatory requirements for responsible AI deployment, addressing emerging frameworks across 70+ countries.

Mind Foundry has raised USD 46.5M across multiple rounds, including a Series A led by Aioi Nissay Dowa Insurance of Europe in 2020 and a Series B in 2023. In December 2025, Aioi Nissay Dowa Insurance (AND-E) acquired Mind Foundry's AI consulting division, consolidating that work under the Aioi R&D Lab-Oxford alongside the founding professors.
