Perpetuals licenses AI trading platform to German university

Perpetuals.com Ltd (NASDAQ: PDC) announced a licensing agreement with the German University of Digital Science for its BayesShield AI predictive intelligence platform. The German state-recognized university will integrate the technology across its research centers and digital learning programs.

German UDS will use BayesShield AI in multiple graduate programs, including master's degrees in applied AI and cybersecurity, and MBA programs in financial technology and digital technologies. The platform will serve as both a teaching tool and research platform at the Potsdam-based institution.

BayesShield AI is trained on 11.7 billion retail trades and analyzes more than 200 features per trade to calculate win/loss probability before trade execution. The system uses data from Perpetuals' regulated Multilateral Trading Facility rather than simulated data or public market feeds.

"By licensing BayesShield to a German state-recognized university, we are simultaneously creating a new recurring revenue stream, gaining academic validation for our AI from world-class researchers, and establishing a pipeline to the next generation of fintech talent globally," said Patrick Gruhn, CEO of Perpetuals.

The company reported that in a pilot program, BayesShield filtered 92% of losing retail trades in BTC-USD perpetual futures based on backtesting against retail trading data. The system is being scaled on NVIDIA-powered hardware for commercial rollout in the second half of 2026.

German UDS is recognized by the Brandenburg Ministry of Science and accredited by the German Accreditation Council through ASIIN. The university describes itself as Europe's first fully digital, state-recognized university, delivering German-accredited degrees online to students worldwide.

The partnership marks Perpetuals' entry into what the company characterizes as the $83 billion global online education market. The agreement creates recurring SaaS licensing revenue for the fintech company while providing the university access to retail trading data for research purposes.
