CUBE has acquired Berlin based Kodex AI and turned a big strategic corner. The deal gives the London company a deeper European footprint and cracks open new room for shared insight, cross market workflows, and fresh product ideas. Pretty big swing for a space that usually moves slow.
The company frames the move as the next pillar in its broader AI buildout. CUBE already anchors Automated Regulatory Intelligence and regulatory change management.
Now it adds an agentic layer that behaves like a digital colleague inside compliance teams. Not a gimmick. Real co worker functionality woven into existing risk and regulatory pipelines.
Kodex built tech that blends fine tuned models with structured regulatory data and knowledge graphs. Once plugged into CUBE’s RegPlatform, it strengthens the platform’s ability to stay aligned with shifting rules while trimming manual work and cutting customer costs.
Kodex AI is a global leader in Agentic Compliance. Kodex AI automates compliance workflows with Agentic Compliance, leveraging specialised Generative AI Agents to identify relevant regulatory updates, analyse requirements, and initiate implementation seamlessly.
With Kodex AI, large banks and fintech companies use AI agents to complete regulatory tasks 95% faster while simultaneously eliminating the risk of missing critical updates by screening 20 times more regulations.
Faster responses, sharper controls, fewer surprises. That’s the sales pitch, but honestly it matches what the platform already aimed for.
CUBE also brings in a heavyweight team. Kodex’s Berlin engineers earned recognition from Meta as one of Europe’s stronger AI outfits in 2024.
Deutsche Bank backed them early and folded them into its Entrepreneur in Residence Program in 2023 to build a specialised LLM for financial document analysis. That work proved their precision and domain depth, and the industry paid attention.
Ben Richmond, CUBE’s founder and CEO, said Thomas and Claus built a disruptive European AI shop that attacked regulatory complexity with an agent based setup. He said Kodex sits naturally in CUBE’s roadmap and accelerates global delivery for customers who already rely on its compliance and risk stack.

“Kodex AI is a natural next step in CUBE’s strategy, allowing us to instantly deliver enhanced, AI-based compliance and risk capabilities to our global customers,” Ben Richmond said.
Kodex co founder Thomas Kaiser called the combination a rare chance to reshape how compliance and risk actually operate. He argued that pairing their AI with CUBE’s regulatory data creates the ideal environment for advanced models to do the heavy lifting.
CUBE now serves about 1,000 customers, supported by more than 800 employees in 20 countries. Hg entered a strategic partnership with CUBE in March 2024 to help scale the business.
The company has been stacking acquisitions for a while: Thomson Reuters’ Global Regulatory Intelligence unit, Oden, Reg Room, and Acin. All of that fed into a single vision built around RegPlatform.
Thomas Martin at Hg said the Kodex deal shows CUBE’s habit of pushing the industry forward instead of coasting. He said Ben keeps driving the company toward the newest tech, and Kodex’s agentic capabilities take that mission a step further.
