Tryolabs was building machine learning systems for US enterprises years before AI became a boardroom priority. Its team of AI engineers and scientists has delivered solutions in generative AI, computer vision, forecasting and price optimization, MLOps, and edge AI across retail, e-commerce, aviation, manufacturing, and insurance. Descoins, who has led Tryolabs' technical vision for more than a decade, was named to the TIME100 AI 2025 list, which recognizes the most influential people in artificial intelligence. As Chief AI Officer, Descoins will lead Qubika's AI strategy end to end, spanning applied AI research, solution architecture, and responsible AI deployment.
The acquisition strengthens Qubika's applied AI capabilities and brings specialized AI talent and leadership into the company, advancing its strategy of helping organizations evolve from digital-native to AI-native. It follows the acquisition of cybersecurity firm Nitra Security and the launch of QBricks, Qubika's enterprise accelerator for AI agent development. Tryolabs also brings deep Google Cloud and Gemini Enterprise expertise, extending Qubika's ability to deliver AI solutions across every major cloud and model ecosystem. The combined company brings one of the deepest applied AI engineering benches in the Americas to a global delivery organization of 1,100 professionals.
"Tryolabs was building real AI/ML systems long before AI became a boardroom priority. Bringing their depth together with our scale gives our clients something unique: research grade AI talent backed by enterprise delivery," said Ariel Ludueña, CEO, Qubika.
"Qubika and Tryolabs share the same engineering DNA, passion for quality, and very similar origins. Joining forces lets us take 16 years of applied AI craft to enterprise scale and create real impact for far more clients than we could on our own. We've always focused on the intelligence, and now we can build everything around it. We are also committed to keeping our team, and our clients, at the center of what comes next," said Alan Descoins, CEO of Tryolabs and Chief AI Officer at Qubika.
