Common questions about DNY
What is DNY Cross Border Group?
DNY Cross Border Group is a Sydney-headquartered technology group that grew from cross-border trade into building trusted, open AI and physical intelligence infrastructure for Australian industry, commercialised through eleven focused ventures.
Why is the group called "Cross Border"?
DNY began in cross-border trade and supply chain between Australia and international markets. That experience, with product data, documents and systems that could not be verified or connected, is why the group now builds trusted AI infrastructure. Cross-border trade remains one of the industries where it is applied.
Is DNY a single AI platform or a group?
A group. DNY builds shared infrastructure (trusted, open AI and Physical Super Intelligence), delivers it through the OPC + FDE network, and commercialises it through eleven focused ventures that each have their own customers and business model.
Does DNY train its own foundation model?
No. DNY works at the commercialisation layer: selecting, evaluating, integrating, governing and operating suitable open and open-weight models, rather than competing to train a frontier model.
What do the project status labels mean?
Operating means live with customers; Pilot means live and taking orders in a pilot phase; In Development means being designed, built or validated; Proposed means a defined concept awaiting partners, approvals or funding; Research means exploratory; Partnership Opportunity means open to a partner to lead or co-develop.
