Speaker

Most retailers can see this coming and need an immediate solution that can support their end-to-end commerce journey needs. We at Rezolve AI have spent 10 years, 10 years building that solution. Michele will talk you through exactly what that opportunity is worth right after me. Let me start with the numbers because they make the argument better than I can. In the first half of this year, we delivered $130.8 million of revenue. That was more than twentyfold what we delivered in H1 2025, and nearly three times our revenue in the whole of 2025. We are targeting at least $500 million of annual recurring revenue as we exit 2026 and we go into 2027, and our strongest trading period is still ahead of us. Our next job is profitability, and we have a strategy to get there faster, built on growth we can sustain.

Speaker

We are operating from a position of strength. We have the team, the technology, and the partners in place to succeed at scale. From here, we are growing what we have already built, and that costs us a fraction of what it took us to build it in the first place. That must be my mother calling me. It is obviously very serious. Our strategy starts with our mission. Rezolve AI is the infrastructure backbone powering AI-driven commerce for merchants, financial institutions, hyperscalers, and technology companies. We start with merchants, and the same infrastructure we build for them can be sold to every other part of the chain, from banks and payment networks to the largest technology platforms in the world. brainpowa is our own proprietary language model, trained from first principles for commerce and protected by more than 30 patents. We all know AI can talk.

Speaker

The problem is it can make things up. In a live store, one invented price costs a merchant the sale and the customer. Hallucination is the reason most retailers will still not let AI sell on their behalf. brainpowa was built to solve that problem, and we will show you exactly how later this morning. With the technology built, the job is now distribution, and we are running three growth engines at the same time. The first is organic growth, driven by our own go-to-market sales team selling directly to enterprises around the world. The second is distribution through partners whose marketplaces and sales forces put us in front of customers we would take years to reach on our own. The third is licensing that infrastructure itself so that platforms, banks, and payment networks can run on the data, intelligence, transaction, and payment rails we have built.

Speaker

Together, they deliver against five priorities, every one of which you will see proved today. The first priority is win the enterprise. We have built one suite of products that carries a merchant from the moment a shopper starts looking to the moment the money lands. Discovery, conversation, recommendation, merchandising, loyalty, checkout, and payment all run on one shared layer. A merchant integrates once. We ended June with well over 1,000 merchants, and our job now is to move every one of them from first deployment into full production across the whole suite. Today, we will show you all of it running on live enterprise sites. The second priority is own the payment. Influencing a purchase is worth something. Completing it is worth far more, because that final step is where the economics of commerce sit. We are building Rezolve Pay to lift conversion at the moment of payment.

Speaker

It will put more of every sale back into the merchant's pocket by removing 2% to 3% transaction fee that they've paid on every single purchase for decades. Beneath every product sits infrastructure which we own outright, from our commerce-tuned language model and data pipelines to the verification layers that prove why an agent did what it did. Platforms, financial institutions, and enterprises can license those rails from us and save themselves years of expensive building. The fourth priority is scale through giants. Microsoft, Google, Tata Consultancy Services, Tech Mahindra, and most recently, Mastercard give us marketplaces, enterprise sales forces, and delivery capacity that would take a decade to assemble on our own. They already sit in the room with the enterprises we want to reach, and they hold the budgets and the relationships. The fifth priority is compound the margin.

Speaker

Our acquired businesses are being consolidated into one operating platform. Our revenue mix is shifting towards software and recurring revenue, and every new deployment costs less to serve than the last. Everything you hear today comes back to one of those five priorities, and you can track our progress against every one of them. Here's how the day runs. I think I've run through a couple more slides. There's our priorities. Here's how the day runs. Nine of us are presenting today alongside two panel sessions, and that is deliberate because this company runs far deeper than one founder with a story to tell. Michele Fisher, our Chief Marketing Officer, follows me to define agentic commerce and set out the size and shape of the market.

Speaker

We then open up the platform layer by layer, in the order a shopper moves through it, from getting a merchant found, to turning into a visit, from turning a visit into a sale, to turning that sale into a customer who comes back, to completing the checkout. Laurence O'Toole, our VP of SEO, AEO, and discovery, David Ingram, our Chief Experience Officer, and James House, CEO of Rezolve Reward, will then put the live product in front of you running against real deployments. Naga Samineni, CEO of Rezolve Pay, will give you a glimpse into the future of payments with a preview of Rezolve Pay. Shouvik Banerjee, our Group CTO, closes that section with a look at our intellectual property and the technology we built to hold it all together.

Speaker

Steve Perry, one of our non-executive directors, and Elizabeth Lachhar, our EVP of the Americas, will then explain why this moment is different from every earlier wave of retail technology and what it looks like from the inside of the payments industry. After the break, you will hear from two of our partners, Kimberly McKinley from Microsoft and Surabh Attri from Tata Consultancy Services, about the agentic commerce landscape and why they chose to work with Rezolve AI. Arthur Yao, our Group CFO, and Kate Goossen, our Deputy CFO, will close with the financial picture and our path to profitability. Today's Rezolve AI presenters will then take questions from all of our investors. We are taking these through the web platform, so if anyone sitting in the room or online would like to ask a question, as Ermi said, please submit it there.

Speaker

We'll do our very best to get through as many as we can in the time available. The product is live in the reception area outside. Throughout the break, for those of you who are with us in person, I encourage you to go and experience the products firsthand. I'll leave you with one thought before I hand over. I started my first company, MAID, in 1984, I know you can't tell because I look so youthful, and put business information online before most people had even heard of the web. In 1998, I founded Venda to run e-commerce as a hosted service, years before anyone called it SaaS, and Oracle went on to buy that company. Alongside it, I founded Attraqt, which built the search and merchandising tools that decide what shoppers see, and I took it to the London stock market.

Speaker

Each time I saw a new way of buying before the market did. Agentic commerce is the next change in how people buy, and it's already here. Rezolve AI is the only provider that gives merchants everything they need to meet this new paradigm, everything from discovery through to payment in one place. I was right about the previous changes to e-commerce. I'm right about this one. The only difference is this time, the prize is much, much bigger. This is the most exciting company I've ever been involved in, and this is the most exciting time that I've ever experienced in my life in technology. The transformation of what we're seeing with agentic technologies and artificial intelligence is breathtaking and transformative, not just for business, but for our lives. I'm very, very happy to be here running this business in this market that has such infinite potential.

Speaker

Michelle's going to show you just how big. Please welcome Michele Fisher. Thank you, Dan, for setting the stage.

Speaker

Hi, everybody. I am so honored to be here today to get to talk to you about what it is that we are building for and who we're building it for. My name is Michele Fisher. I'm the Chief Marketing Officer here at Rezolve AI, and I am absolutely thrilled to be a part of Rezolve AI. I joined about four months ago. It's been about two decades for me in retail, starting all the way when I was selling bridal gowns to being able to be at the intersection of infrastructure and emerging technologies and storytelling with storied companies like Disney and Amazon. To get started, I don't think anybody is going to be surprised in this room that commerce is going through a monumental shift.

Speaker

It's a total redesign, and someone is going to build that infrastructure, and every single thing that we're building is ensuring that we are the company that is going to be building it and transacting with it. The very nature of shopping has gone through a fundamental change. Merchants spent years developing strategies, and many of you may have even experienced this, where they put millions and billions of dollars into strategies to improve their search to be the first thing that people see when they go to Google. Now all of that is shifting to if you don't get chosen in the first 3 to 4 AI recommendations, you're practically invisible as a brand. 42% of shoppers consult with LLMs, according to an Adobe traffic report.

Speaker

Actually from the same report, shoppers referred to retail sites through AI convert 61% more often than customers who come through other channels. That's not a trend. That is an unbelievable change. We'll go through a little bit of this big shift in the next slide here. Agentic commerce is going through a multi-trillion dollar shift in a $30 trillion industry. Retail is the demand signal for the global economy. It's impressive how in just such a short period of time, we've seen retail shift from the old way that we used to go shopping, which I will go into in just a minute, to now 3 to 5 trillion predicted to be going through agentic commerce and through agents. Bain has actually predicted that 15% to 25% of commerce, or 15% to 25% of all e-commerce by 2030 will actually be going through e-commerce as well.

Speaker

Just to restate, 3 to 5 trillion in 2030 will be going through agents as well. Merchants need to be ready. They need to ready their catalogs with machine-readable data or face being invisible at the moment that a customer comes and has their query. If you are missed at this point in the 3 to 4 AI recommendations that people get when they're doing their shopping, at best, you can consider that a lost opportunity. At worst, you consider that a missed sale. That's what we're trying to solve. The sales funnel has essentially collapsed. I'll give you an example of how that changes. Many of you have probably experienced this before yourselves, where you've gone and for example, with me, I'm going to be in New York City again. I'm based in Seattle at NRF, and I'm going to need a winter coat.
