Fobi AI Launches FORTRESS, a Sovereign AI Platform for Secure, Enterprise Owned Intelligence

FORTRESS Transforms Proprietary Data Into the Intelligence Layer for the Agentic AI Era

Vancouver, BC, Aug. 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fobi AI Inc. (TSXV: FOBI) (Pink: FOBIF) ("Fobi" or the "Company"), an enterprise technology company delivering artificial intelligence, intelligent automation and data intelligence solutions, today announced the launch of FORTRESS, its sovereign enterprise AI platform. The launch marks a significant expansion of Fobi's artificial intelligence strategy and positions the Company at the intersection of enterprise AI, data sovereignty, cybersecurity and agentic automation.

As artificial intelligence becomes embedded across enterprise operations, the competitive advantage is increasingly shifting from access to AI models toward the proprietary data, institutional knowledge, workflows and intelligence that organizations can securely activate through them.

FORTRESS was built around a simple principle: An organization's most valuable intelligence should remain its own.

Public AI platforms have accelerated adoption, but they can also introduce concerns around data residency, confidentiality, intellectual property, regulatory compliance and control of sensitive corporate information.

FORTRESS provides organizations with a private environment for deploying AI against their proprietary data while maintaining control over where that data resides, how it is accessed and how enterprise intelligence is created and used.

The Rise of Sovereign Enterprise AI

The enterprise AI market is entering a new phase. Organizations are moving beyond experimentation toward production deployments that increasingly touch sensitive data, mission critical workflows, customer information, intellectual property and core business systems.

This transition creates a fundamental requirement for the next generation of enterprise AI: sovereignty.

FORTRESS enables organizations to deploy AI within controlled infrastructure, including on premise environments, in country infrastructure and secure private cloud environments.

Rather than sending proprietary information into public AI ecosystems, organizations can bring artificial intelligence directly to their own data.

Private infrastructure. Proprietary intelligence. Enterprise control.

Proprietary Data Becomes the Competitive Advantage

As access to foundational AI models becomes increasingly widespread, Fobi believes the next major competitive advantage will come from the proprietary information organizations already possess.

Years of operational data, internal documents, customer interactions, workflows, technical knowledge, institutional expertise and decision history represent enormous pools of unrealized intelligence. FORTRESS is designed to securely activate that information.
