AI startup Resolutiion raises £8m from LocalGlobe and Octopus Ventures
This article covers Resolutiion, an AI startup that has raised more than £8m in a growth funding round from LocalGlobe, Cherry Ventures, Octopus Ventures, Chevron Technology Ventures and the European Union. The development aims to scale the startup’s AI infrastructure for detecting delivery failures across fragmented enterprise data and coordinating multi-party remediation, targeting organisations that manage large, regulated contracts in sectors such as energy, construction, infrastructure, defence and government.
Resolutiion, an AI startup building infrastructure for commercial risk and dispute resolution, has raised more than £8 million in a growth funding round from LocalGlobe, Cherry Ventures, Octopus Ventures, Chevron Technology Ventures and the European Union. The funding underlines investor interest in tooling that detects delivery failures across fragmented enterprise data and coordinates multi-party remediation.
Why it matters
Commercial programs often unravel in the gaps between systems and teams. A global study co-authored with World Commerce & Contracting, Beyond the Contract, finds one in five contracts hits a dispute during delivery and estimates enterprises lose £50–90 million for every £1 billion of contracted revenue. Resolutiion targets that leakage by surfacing emerging supplier failures, programme delays, cost exposure and performance issues before disputes crystallise.
Organisations that run large, mission-critical contracts — in energy, construction, infrastructure, defence and government — typically see risk from different perspectives: operations spot delivery problems, procurement sees supplier underperformance, finance registers losses and legal may only intervene once evidence has fragmented. Tools that bridge those silos could reduce value erosion and improve evidence handling when disputes arise.
Inside the product
Resolutiion’s platform continuously monitors hundreds of data points across commercial relationships, drawing from technical documents, communications, operational data, financials and enterprise systems. It flags what is going wrong, offers an explanation and outlines next steps, and creates a controlled environment that connects companies, functions, humans, AI agents, evidence and decisions while governing visibility and permissions.
The product sits on infrastructure the company calls Octavia and OctaviaCore and has been described by its founder as defining a “Risk-to-Resolution” category. The platform is live in the Microsoft Marketplace and was selected for Microsoft’s Pegasus programme, a selective cohort for global startups.
Resolutiion reports a 10/10 customer NPS and a pipeline worth hundreds of millions of dollars across five continents. The company sells into regulated and asset-heavy sectors where the cost of delivery failure is high and evidence trails are complex.
Who are the investors?
Resolutiion’s latest round — more than £8 million in aggregate — lists LocalGlobe, Cherry Ventures, Octopus Ventures, Chevron Technology Ventures and the European Union among backers. The announcement does not specify a single lead investor or individual tranche sizes.
Investors appear to be backing a combination of domain expertise and market traction: the company’s pipeline across multiple continents, its reported customer satisfaction, live availability in the Microsoft Marketplace and selection for Microsoft’s Pegasus programme all provide commercial signals. The involvement of the European Union is notable for a startup operating in complex public-sector and regulated markets, where EU funding or participation can signal alignment with cross-border procurement and regulatory priorities.
The round also reflects growing interest from AI investors in infrastructure that connects operational, legal and commercial data to reduce contract leakage and manage disputes more proactively.

Founder perspective
Founder Fayola-Maria Jack has a background in large public-sector commercial transformation. She led commercial transformation for the Royal Air Force across a £6 billion operating environment, established the UK Government’s first Commercial Dispute Resolution Practice, co-authored the Government Outsourcing Playbook and sits on the World Commerce & Contracting board. At the Cabinet Office she led the Complex Transactions Team, supporting BEIS and DEFRA through EU Exit. Resolutiion’s team includes hires drawn from Darktrace, Klarna, Everlaw, Luminance, Uber, Accenture and KPMG.
In the announcement, Fayola-Maria Jack, Founder at Resolutiion, said:
I’m focused on building a generational company. I absolutely believe the next trillion-dollar technology company will come out of Europe. We know this domain deeply, we went global and cross-industry from day one, and we’re building with enormous ambition. We’re super early, but in the process of onboarding hundreds of companies onto our platform, we have some of the world’s leading and most exciting companies in our pipeline, an exceptional team drawn from some of the best technology businesses, and a roadmap that goes far beyond the product you see today. AI has fundamentally expanded what is possible, and we intend to build one of the defining AI infrastructure companies of this generation.
The bigger picture
Resolutiion’s raise sits at the intersection of two wider trends: increasing investor appetite for AI infrastructure and a push by enterprises to reduce costly contract disputes through better digitisation and evidence management. The participation of UK and European investors, alongside a US corporate venture arm, underlines cross-border interest in solutions that can be applied across regulated sectors.
For UK and European procurement and enterprise markets, tools that stitch together operational, contractual and communication data could shift how disputes are prevented and resolved. That matters not only for individual company margins but for the efficiency of large public programmes and critical infrastructure delivery across the region.
