Ankar Ai
Enterprise AI operating system for the patent lifecycle
About Ankar Ai
Ankar Ai is a European enterprise software company founded by former Palantir engineers Wiem Gharbi and Tamar Gomez that builds an AI operating system for the patent lifecycle used by IP and R&D teams. The platform unifies prior-art and novelty analysis across large patent and scientific corpora, strategic drafting and prosecution support, and a consolidated view of examiner responses, with enterprise security design including early ISO 27001 work and customer-data isolation so outputs stay grounded in verified sources. Customers include Fortune 500 R&D organisations seeking faster, more defensible portfolios. In December 2025 Ankar raised a $20 million Series A led by Atomico, with Index Ventures doubling down and Norrsken VC and Daphni participating, taking total funding to about $24 million to grow engineering, product and go-to-market across Europe and the US.
