ABOUT CANUS

The company behind the programme.

CANUS Technologies is the Australian company building the programme through which a cloud operator puts its next AI infrastructure project together and carries it through delivery and expansion. We work out what the project needs, bring funding, data-centre, power, equipment and installation partners into one programme, track the work in LARUS, independently check each delivery and stay for the next phase. The partners finance, supply and build. The operator keeps its cloud and its customers. CANUS stands behind its programme work and its independent results.

The company

THE EVIDENCE GAP

The boundary we hold.

  1. 01

    The gap

    Contracted AI capacity is growing faster than any infrastructure class before it. Customers, lenders, insurers and site owners need an independent record of whether that capacity was delivered as agreed: a record no party to the transaction can produce for itself.
  2. 02

    The boundary

    CANUS coordinates the programme. It does not finance, supply, build or operate what it coordinates, and it does not access workload, customer, model or internal operational data. Delivery-check evidence is handled by CANUS under its own access controls.

THE COMPANY

A small company.A defined public record.

  1. 01

    The entity

    CANUS Technologies Pty Ltd, an Australian company. ACN 698 333 158.
  2. 02

    The group

    CANUS Research began as a small private research group founded by the principals, with researchers and contributors engaged privately from early work through to patent stage.
  3. 03

    The principals

    Its principals come from energy infrastructure and from enterprise data and security, supported by external patent and corporate counsel engaged under non-disclosure.
  4. 04

    The position

    Funding is private. Backers, advisers and research contributors are named when they agree to public disclosure.
  5. 05

    Public footprint

    Our public statements are limited to the regulatory record and to the engineering the programme can show.

INDEPENDENCE BY DESIGN

No stake in what we check.

  1. 01

    The standard

    Independent delivery checks for AI compute will be trusted only if the company producing them has no operational stake in the compute, the energy or the financial outcome it checks. CANUS is set up to that standard.
  2. 02

    The discipline

    Our governance, disclosures and engagement model keep that independence intact as the company grows, and have done so from the first day.

THE TEAM

The team.

The team's work draws on experience across the power chain that AI infrastructure increasingly depends on: renewable generation, power electronics, mission-critical UPS architecture, data centre infrastructure, and large-load energy procurement.

SECURITISATION / CRITERIA / GOVERNANCE

Not publicly profiled

STRATEGIC ADVISOR · KBRA

Founding executive of KBRA. Securitisation, criteria development and methodology governance: the discipline that makes a new asset class ratable. Built and defended published criteria through committee process, regulatory scrutiny and full market cycles. Advises the CANUS programme on criteria architecture and methodology governance as AI capacity becomes a financeable asset class. Identity and background are provided directly to qualified counterparties and investors under NDA.

Researchers and contributors are engaged privately across the programme, from early engagement through to patent stage. External patent and corporate counsel are engaged under non-disclosure.

FROM THE FOUNDERS

Why CANUS exists.

CANUS was founded on the power side of large energy infrastructure: PPA origination, storage structuring, grid connections, mission-critical power, joined by enterprise data and security. AI compute is the largest new load the grid has taken on, and the least independently checked. Whether that capacity was delivered as agreed, the fact that makes it fundable and billable, should not be decided by anyone selling it.
