KorrAI sells TRAIL, an AI-assisted physical risk intelligence platform for mining and critical infrastructure teams.

category

Infrastructure and mining risk intelligence

market profile

  • text: Mine operators and infrastructure owners must assess physical hazards throughout operations and closure.
  • text: Geotechnical monitoring providers combine satellite observations with ground measurements to identify site movement.

personas

  • title: Mine closure or tailings risk manager
    pains:
    • Decades of reports, imagery and monitoring records are fragmented.
    • Closure and dam safety submissions require defensible evidence tied to failure modes.
  • title: Geotechnical engineer or Engineer of Record
    pains:
    • Manually connecting site records and measurements consumes specialist time.
    • Sign-off requires traceable evidence and professional review.
  • title: Infrastructure risk engineer or underwriter
    pains:
    • Site due diligence requires timely ground and water risk information.
    • A small team must prioritize inspection across expensive assets.

icp

  • text: Mining operators with tailings facilities or mine closure obligations and substantial historical site records.
  • text: Infrastructure owners, engineering advisers and insurers evaluating data centers, energy assets or construction sites.

message pillars

  • text: Provide inspectable evidence for engineering and regulatory decisions.
  • text: Turn fragmented site histories into closure-ready evidence.
  • text: Help teams focus inspections and capital on specific site areas.
  • text: Keep experts responsible for reviewing AI insights and citations.

objections

  • objection: Can AI findings support professional sign-off?
    response: Pilot on known site records and have the engineer inspect each underlying citation before accepting a finding.
  • objection: We already have instruments and consultants.
    response: Assess whether combining existing records with imagery and historical context improves review speed and prioritization.

Founders

  • name: Rahul Anand
    title: Founder
    role: Founder
    bio: Serial founder. Started Mycopie in my second year at NIT Karnataka and sold it, then built and sold HopCar, a consumer app. Spent the years between building enterprise IoT systems for ONGC in oil and gas, Ooredoo in telecom and Nokia in manufacturing. Co-founded KorrAI in 2020 out of a Canadian Space Agency research project and grew it to 20 people. We build AI agents for mining; our product, TRAIL, builds the safety case the Engineer of Record signs.
  • name: Rob McEwan
    title: Founder
    role: Founder
    bio: My passion for knowledge and tinkering with technology quickly lead me to transition from a professional hockey career to the geosciences, where I found an absolute fascination with image sensors, spectroscopy, and working with geospatial data. I am driven by the pursuit of commercially viable technologies and solutions for industries that are most critical to the transition to a sustainable economy. I believe in open data, collaboration, and strong digital privacy protections.
