Their own description (from YC)

KorrAI began in 2021 as a Canadian Space Agency research spin-off. We spent four years on ground deformation monitoring and geotechnical studies for mines and infrastructure, and kept running into the same problem: engineers who sign off on a site's safety have to synthesize reports by hunting for docs and data received from consultants, contractors, and site teams by hand.

Over the last two years, we built TRAIL, a platform informed by interconnected data, powered by specialised AI agents, and supported by our experts. With TRAIL deployed at multiple mine sites across the US and Canada, we envision turning risk management into a proactive process. When records span decades, a wrong answer has regulatory and safety consequences; it is necessary to have complete knowledge of risks and take action in time.

Our team of satellite data experts, geoscientists, and AI engineers monitors more than $100 billion in assets across the globe. TRAIL reads a site's full record: reports, drawings, inspection notes, monitoring data, satellite imagery, and ground deformation, etc. It builds a location-based knowledge graph. AI Agents run defined risk passes over the graph, flag contradictions, cross-link data, and present findings. Every finding cites its source page and data point, so a regulator or Engineer of Record can review it. Where no evidence supports a claim, TRAIL says so.

TRAIL is used by closure professionals, geotechnical engineers, and Engineers of Record in mining, and by risk engineers and underwriters on data centers and other critical infrastructure. We work with organizations including Agnico Eagle, Hecla, Eldorado Gold, Stantec, AECOM, Ramboll, Amazon Web Services, and Zurich North America.
