Cohere completes AISLE acquisition and adds cubic team

Cohere has completed its acquisition of AISLE and brought the team behind cubic into the company, adding dedicated cybersecurity and secure-coding operations to its sovereign AI platform.

AISLE’s autonomous security research and vulnerability-discovery work forms the foundation of Cohere Cyber, a business aimed at enterprises, governments and critical-infrastructure operators. The cubic team, led by founder and CEO Paul Sanglé-Ferrière, will establish Cohere’s secure-coding vertical and work on integrating coding capabilities into the broader platform.

AISLE said its transaction formally closed on November 10, three days before Cohere announced the completed acquisition. AISLE also said it had begun serving customers as Cohere Cyber. The reviewed announcements did not disclose financial terms.

Cohere named AISLE co-founder Ondrej Vlcek senior vice president of Cohere Cyber, while Jaya Baloo becomes Cohere’s chief information security officer. Stanislav Fort becomes vice president of AI Security, leading AI security research while joining Cohere’s core model research and training work.

The expansion follows Cohere’s October 15 letter of intent to acquire AISLE. Cohere said it plans a long-term investment in Prague and intends to make the city its global center for AI cybersecurity and autonomous security systems, but it did not state an amount or timetable.

Cohere says cubic’s AI code-review platform can review changes, find bugs and vulnerabilities, analyze complex codebases and automatically remediate issues. The company also claims cubic’s review agents rank among the strongest performers on code-review benchmarks and were designed for on-premises and air-gapped deployments. Those capability, performance and deployment claims were not independently validated in the reviewed evidence.

cubic said Cohere acquired the company, while Cohere described the change as welcoming the team behind cubic. Neither announcement detailed the transaction’s legal structure or provided launch timing, pricing or availability for the secure-coding vertical. cubic said its existing code-review product will continue operating, remain fully supported and receive further improvements.
