Core AI
Brazilfintech
Core AI is a Brazilian fintech that transforms industrial ecosystems into scalable credit platforms, acting as an intermediary layer between clients and banking-as-a-service (BaaS) providers to simplify credit offering. The company uses AI and data to optimize credit approval, automate operations, and enable new forms of credit, with the stated mission of making credit accessible to any company with intelligence, security, and personalization. It was founded by former Stone executives Fernando Martins and Enrico Francesco Damiani, along with Carolina da Costa Carvalho. Core AI raised a US$1 million pre-seed round and later a US$4.1 million round to optimize credit approval with AI alongside BaaS providers, and was selected for the 2025 Brazilian cohort of the Google for Startups Accelerator.
