Going FAR with Foundation Models – Fair, Accurate, Robust AI for All Data
Unlock robust, AI-assisted decision-making that performs consistently – no matter the data type, customer base, or market conditions. From structured spreadsheets to unstructured text and images, Astute AI adapts and delivers.

Who We Are
Astute AI is a collaborative research and innovation project led by a team from the University of Sussex (UK) and the Basque Center for Applied Mathematics (Spain). With support from the European Research Council and the UKRI Higher Education Innovation Fund, we are developing a new generation of decision-making systems powered by foundation models that are fair, accurate, and robust.
Our team brings together leading researchers in machine learning, algorithmic fairness, and robustness—backed by decades of academic and commercial experience across AI and venture capital.
What’s Holding Teams Back
Spreadsheets with clashing formats. Unstructured customer feedback. Images. Sensors. Logs. Modern organisations are surrounded by data – but most AI tools are built for just one type at a time.
That creates real-world problems:
AI models that fail when the context shifts
Hours lost wrangling data from new sources
Unreliable or biased outcomes when customer profiles change
For teams making critical decisions, these limitations aren’t just frustrating – they’re risky, costly, and hard to scale.
