St. John's, NL — trophi.ai has received funding through the Government of Canada's AI Compute Access Fund, part of a national initiative supporting 44 Canadian companies working to scale artificial intelligence products. The fund, delivered under Canada's Sovereign AI Compute Strategy, helps small and medium-sized businesses offset the cost of high-performance computing needed to build and commercialize AI technology.
The support will help trophi.ai power the compute-intensive AI and machine learning workloads behind its coaching platform, including cloud infrastructure, GPU access, and data processing needed to deliver real-time, personalized coaching feedback to gamers. The funding aligns with trophi.ai's ongoing work extending its AI coaching technology from sim racing into Rocket League, where the platform analyzes gameplay data in real time to help players improve core mechanical and tactical skills.
The AI Compute Access Fund was announced by the Honourable Evan Solomon, Minister of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Innovation, at Web Summit Vancouver. The fund is designed to help Canadian companies overcome the high cost of AI compute, one of the biggest barriers to building and scaling AI products domestically.
"AI is not just a technology of the future — it's already helping Canadian companies solve real problems and compete globally," said Minister Solomon. "Through the AI Compute Access Fund, we're helping Canadian businesses get the processing power they need to scale, create jobs, and keep more of the value they create here in Canada."
trophi.ai, based in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, has grown rapidly since launching its AI coaching platform, expanding from sim racing into Rocket League and building toward future gaming and real-world training applications. The compute support will help the company continue that growth while keeping its AI development rooted in Canada.
