Milestone Systems just bought brighter AI, a Berlin-based startup that makes video data anonymous. The deal combines two European tech companies focused on responsible AI development.
brighter AI's technology replaces faces and personal features in video with synthetic versions. The company won Nvidia's "Europe's Hottest AI Startup" award for this innovation. Their tool will now power Milestone's new data archive and AI training platform, Project Hafnia.
The acquisition lets Milestone expand beyond security software into privacy-focused video management. It's a strategic move - European tech companies are joining forces to compete globally while protecting citizen privacy.
For brighter AI's 24 employees, work continues as a separate unit within Milestone. The startup's founders see the deal as a chance to spread their privacy-first approach worldwide through Milestone's established channels.
Why this matters:
Europe just created a privacy tech powerhouse. While U.S. and Chinese companies race to collect data, these European firms are building tools to protect it.
The deal shows how privacy tech is becoming big business. What started as a regulatory headache is turning into a competitive advantage.
OpenAI just updated its rulebook for handling powerful AI, and the timing couldn't be better. Their AI models keep getting smarter, and like any parent of a gifted teenager, they're setting firmer boundaries.
Claude just got a major upgrade that transforms how it finds and uses information. The AI assistant now searches the web and connects with Google Workspace, making it a more capable research partner.
