Recent AI & Machine Learning Acquisitions
Acquisition Volume in AI & Machine Learning by Year
Last 5 years
This page highlights recent M&A and strategic investments in the AI & Machine Learning sector, including examples of strategic product integrations, infrastructure plays, and talent/IP acquisitions. Transactions range from enterprise product integrations to platform and country‑entry deals.
Buyers include strategic technology companies, infrastructure investors, and private‑equity/venture investors. Recent examples show acquirers integrating capabilities into existing products (ADT buying Origin AI), expanding model and agent capabilities (Anthropic acquiring Vercept, Augmented Intelligence (AUI) acquiring Quack AI), and building large‑scale infrastructure platforms (Radiant backed by Brookfield Asset Management acquiring Ori). The activity spans the United States, Israel, the United Kingdom, and parts of Europe.
What Stands Out
- Strategic technology buyers are prominent: examples include ADT (security and smart‑home integration) and Anthropic (product capability expansion).
- Infrastructure and scale plays appear alongside product M&A: Brookfield‑backed Radiant merged with Ori to create a capital‑backed AI infrastructure platform.
- Capability themes include agentic/assistant tech, AI‑enabled automation for sales and legal workflows, GovCon proposal automation, and applied AI services (examples: Quack AI, Upcraft, eDiscovery AI, Rogue AI).
- Geographic spread is primarily U.S. states (California, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Maryland, Washington, Georgia, Illinois, District of Columbia) with notable deals in Israel, the UK, and Spain (e.g., AUI in Tel Aviv; Doctrine acquiring Maite.ai in Catalonia).
