Intellistake talks proposed investment in Orbit AI

Mr. Jason Dussault reports INTELLISTAKE STRENGTHENS AI INFRASTRUCTURE PLATFORM WITH ENTRY INTO SPACE-BASED DATA CENTERS Intellistake Technologies Corp. is highlighting how its partnership and strategic investment in Orbit AI positions the company at the infrastructure layer of what it sees as the next phase of cloud and AI (artificial intelligence) -- data centres and verification systems that operate in space as well as on Earth. Key highlights: Intellistake to invest an initial $500,000 (U.S.) for a 1-per-cent equity interest in Orbit AI, with options to increase its stake alongside future financing rounds. The partnership is designed to position Intellistake as one of the first group of public-market infrastructure players in space-based AI and digital infrastructure, rather than just a hardware or launch provider. Orbit AI is developing satellites that function like data centres in space, with Intellistake focused on building the independent trust layer that verifies all data and AI workloads in orbit. Intellistake's infrastructure focus is further supported by the recent appointment of Singularity Compute GmbH chief executive officer Joe Honan to its advisory board, adding deep data centre and compute expertise. Orbit AI is developing satellites that function like data centres in low Earth orbit. Instead of sending every task to large server farms on the ground, some AI and data workloads would be processed directly on satellites and then sent back down. Intellistake's role is to design and support the independent software trust layer for this environment -- the systems that check, record and verify what has happened to the data so customers can rely on the results. For Intellistake, this is a natural extension of what the company already does. Intellistake focuses on the infrastructure under the applications: validator operations, decentralized AI tooling and enterprise agents that are being developed to help institutions connect to emerging networks in a way that fits public-market standards. Supporting space-based infrastructure means taking that same skill set and applying it one layer higher: building the foundations so future AI systems and decentralized technologies can plug into orbital networks in much the same way they plug into today's major cloud providers. As disclosed in the Orbit AI transaction announcement, Intellistake intends to complete an initial strategic equity investment of $500,000 (U.S.) in Orbit AI in return for a 1-per-cent equity interest. The company will also have the option to invest an additional $1-million (U.S.) at a valuation linked to Orbit AI's next financing round, an amount which, with Orbit AI's approval, may be increased to up to $10-million (U.S.). This structure is designed to give Intellistake a meaningful, infrastructure-focused position in an emerging category without taking on the capital-intensive work of rockets or satellite manufacturing. Intellistake believes that, as AI grows, the infrastructure underneath it is gradually expanding beyond the ground. By working with Orbit AI now, the company aims to be among the first wave of public-market infrastructure players building the trust and access layer for this shift, offering investors exposure to the picks and shovels of space-based compute rather than competing head-on with global giants on rockets or satellite hardware. To support this focus, Intellistake has also appointed Mr. Honan, barrels of oil equivalent per day of Singularity Compute, to its advisory board. Mr. Honan brings more than 30 years of experience across AI, cloud and compute innovation and leads Singularity Compute's mission to build secure, sovereign and modular AI computing systems for researchers, enterprises and governments. His background in global AI infrastructure and data centre strategy is intended to strengthen Intellistake's ability to evaluate, design and scale infrastructure-level technologies -- from terrestrial data centres to emerging orbital networks. "Space is quickly becoming the next extension of the cloud," said Jason Dussault, chief executive officer of Intellistake Technologies. "AI already pushes the limits of power and infrastructure on Earth. By investing in Orbit AI and focusing on the verification layer around their orbital network -- supported by advisers like Joe Honan who live and breathe global compute infrastructure -- we are positioning Intellistake to help build the systems that keep this new environment transparent and trustworthy for enterprises and institutions." This initiative complements Intellistake's broader work developing software and operating validator infrastructure that helps public companies and institutions connect to decentralized AI and blockchain networks in a regulated, listed-company framework. Extending that approach to orbital data centres is intended to position Intellistake as an infrastructure-layer business that supports the next generation of AI and decentralized technologies, on Earth and, increasingly, in space.
