Our mission

Turning unstructured data into structured decisions

Alpha Quantum was founded on a simple observation: the internet generates more data every day than any manual process can classify, and yet classification is the prerequisite for nearly everything enterprises need to do with that data.

Our focus

One engine, massive scale

Every platform we build draws from the same underlying classification infrastructure, which means improvements to the core engine benefit every product simultaneously.

This architecture lets a small team serve the data needs of organizations that include tier-1 telecom carriers, global media conglomerates, cybersecurity corporations, defense industry companies, and some of the largest digital marketplaces in the world.

Our corpus

120 million domains and growing

We set out to build a classification engine comprehensive enough to cover the full active internet, not just the popular sites, but the long tail that generic providers ignore.

Today, our corpus covers 120 million domains, classified across multiple taxonomies simultaneously and refreshed daily with 300,000 newly registered domains.

Our journey

19 years of enterprise software

From quantitative finance to the classification infrastructure of the AI era.

2012 — risk management

Risk management suite

VaR and CVaR across historical, parametric and Monte Carlo methods, stress testing, risk attribution and pre-trade compliance for institutional clients.

2021 — data platforms era

Full-spectrum data platforms

AI-driven classification at enterprise scale. Website Categorization API, URL databases, Product Categorization API and privacy engine deployed. First tier-1 telecom carriers onboarded.

2022 — expansion

Full-spectrum data platforms

120 million domains classified. Privacy engine and document intelligence engine added. 300+ organizations now depend on Alpha Quantum platforms in production.

2025 — the agent era

AI tool governance and agent policy

AI Tools Blocklist launched: 20,183+ AI-tool domains with four risk flags. AI Agent Allowlist built: 40 million domains with 28 verified page types each. Seven platforms, four engines, one company.

Architecture

Four engines behind seven platforms

These are separate systems with separate data. One classifies the web, one classifies products, one finds and removes sensitive data, one reads documents. Each platform runs on the engine built for it.

Since 2007

Where it all began: quantitative finance

Before AI data platforms, Alpha Quantum built quantitative software for the financial industry: portfolio optimisation, risk management, security analysis and news analytics. The same engineering discipline now runs our data platforms.

How we build

Our engineering principles

01

Depth over breadth

We classify the full active internet, not just the popular sites. Our 120 million-domain corpus covers the long tail where brand-safety incidents happen and agents wander.

02

One engine, many products

Every platform draws from the same infrastructure. An improvement to the classification core immediately benefits every product simultaneously.

03

Test before you buy

Every product offers a free demo to test full functionality. Database products include free sample downloads. Live demos run against production models with your own data.

04

Your infrastructure, your formats

We deliver data in every format enterprise infrastructure consumes: REST API, CSV, JSON, SQLite, DNS RPZ, PAC files, EDL feeds and hosts files.

05

Always current

The web corpus takes in new domains every day, the AI block list refreshes daily, the agent allow list quarterly. Stale data is worse than no data.

06

Privacy by design

We classify publicly available web content and do not collect, store or process user-level browsing data. API traffic is encrypted in transit and query data is not retained.

Work with us

Whether you need a single API integration or an enterprise-wide data partnership, we would like to hear from you.
