PORTFOLIO NEWS
In recent days, Startup Insider released two compelling podcast episodes featuring MOTOR Ai, a DeepTech startup from the eCAPITAL portfolio.

MOTOR Ai is the only German company developing a Level 4 AI system for autonomous driving based on a cognitive architecture with active inference. Unlike traditional reactive systems, MOTOR makes structured, transparent decisions using explainable data models – a key advantage for deployment in Europe’s highly regulated environment.
