This Startup Built a Secure AI Platform in 45 Days with Oracle’s New Database Tech
MIAMI, 4TH May, 2025 — Sphere, a deep tech company experiencing a meteoric rise, announced at the Oracle CloudWorld Tour in Miami that its secure AI platform OrgBrain had been deployed successfully, drawing benefits from Oracle Database 23ai on Oracle Autonomous Database. Built for government, NGOs, and enterprises, OrgBrain was developed and launched in 45 days, and all made possible due to Oracle’s converged database architecture and strong integrated services.
By moving away from fragmented tools and adopting Oracle’s comprehensive platform on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), Sphere has customized applications with acute speed, resulting in unprecedented productivity boosts.
OrgBrain, a proprietary platform, uses AI models and automation tools to accelerate traditionally weekslong multi-stakeholder workflows into 5–10 minutes, allowing clients to gather insights, automate complex processes, and scale their innovations safely.
“Our ability to drive enterprise-grade, secure, and explainable AI into highly regulated industries is what sets us apart,”
said Christian Grupp, CEO and founder of Sphere.
“We’re helping our customers turn information overload into action by transforming legal, operational, and customer workflows quickly and confidently. As a rapidly growing startup, Oracle Autonomous Database on OCI provides us with the high-performance, secure, and scalable foundation necessary to support our customers’ needs. With Oracle, we enable our customers to make hyper-intelligent decisions.
An important differentiator is the target unique attribute of the Oracle Database 23ai, which is its vector search capability. This enabled Sphere to combine RAG with its own proprietary data models to provide contextually relevant and accurate generative AI experiences.
Existing OrgBrain customers, which include a U.S. healthcare organization and an international NGO, report major improvements in operational efficiency and proposal generation.
The Sphere development team also used ORDS to map their model to REST APIs, therefore accelerating web app development while retaining secure role-based access by default.
“Organizations across all industries worldwide are evaluating where to apply AI to help improve efficiency, grow their customer base, deliver new products, and open new revenue generation opportunities,”
Said Jenny Tsai-Smith, senior vice president, Overall Database Product Management, Oracle.
“Oracle Database 23ai enabled Sphere to immediately meet customer demand and provide business value by helping it to build and deploy its platform in just weeks using built-in vector database and virtual private database features. By building its platform on Oracle Autonomous Database, Sphere can cost-effectively deliver the scale, tight security controls, and high performance that its customers require and rapidly expand into new markets.”
