CleanTech & AI is the intelligence layer for the UK drone and autonomy sector. We plot funding flows, contract awards and engineering talent movement, then issue it as a dated, referenced sheet you can act on the same morning.
Public-source intelligence from GOV.UK, UKDI, Companies House and procurement records. Human verified before issue.
British companies are set to gain access to Ukrainian battlefield data to develop new AI-enabled drone swarm systems. Up to 12 UK companies are expected to participate, using data from Ukraine’s Avengers AI Labs to train and test…
UK Defence Innovation has launched Project PANOPTES on behalf of the Ministry of Defence. The competition seeks integrated Counter-Uncrewed Aerial System capability capable of autonomous operation, with a share of £5 million available in the first phase. Stage…
UKDI Cycle 8 is seeking cost-competitive technologies that can be manufactured and scaled rapidly for operational use. Proposals are expected around £350,000, with submissions closing 22 September 2026.
Large platforms price SMEs out. News sites lack technical depth. We sit between the two: sector-specific, verified, and priced for companies that are actually scaling.
Structured monitoring of UK defence innovation programmes, grant cycles and contract awards. You learn who won, how much, and what they will need to build next, before it reaches the trade press.
We map where specialist engineering capability sits, where hiring pressure is increasing and how scarce technical skills are moving across the market. Delivered as a redacted map, not a CV dump.
Structured profiles of UK drone, robotics and autonomy developers, covering technology focus, funding history, headcount trajectory and likely procurement route.
We map where specialist engineering capability sits, where hiring pressure is increasing and how scarce technical skills are moving across the market.
AI accelerates the research. Human judgement verifies the intelligence. Every figure that leaves here has been checked against its primary public source.
Public-record sources are monitored across Companies House, GOV.UK, Find a Tender, UKDI and other relevant procurement sources.
Findings are matched against our developer database and cross-referenced with hiring activity.
Every figure passes a human check before it leaves the engine. In defence, an unverified number is worthless.
Intelligence is issued as a sheet: a dated, referenced briefing you can act on the same morning.
Briefings are issued to named contacts. Include your organisation and the capability area you care about, whether funding, talent or supply chain, and we will plot it.
