Read more about FullSpan AI

FullSpan AI is the brand of Dare2Care Lda., a Portuguese company based in Covilhã. We are an AI engineering company: a small core team, an AI technical lead and an experienced engineering partner who turn a business problem into a working product.

Most of our engineers and tech leads have 10+ years of experience and have delivered large projects for energy companies and banks. That experience lets us work at any size, from a one-module AI MVP to enterprise information systems for companies (B2B) and public bodies (B2G).

Because we are a European company, GDPR shapes our design from the first line of code, and we have in-house data-protection legal expertise. Our process is simple: send your RFP, receive a written scope and fixed price from our engineers, then meet to confirm the details.

We also build for other consultancies as a white-label partner. Explore our AI solutions, read our blog on AI product development, or see the EU-funded project that proved our approach.
