Built on Experience. Driven by AI.
Founded in 2023, iDC Solutions was established to address a fundamental challenge shared across regulated industries: ensuring that operations are performed correctly, that data is trustworthy, and that compliance is demonstrable. Starting with CertifAI in the energy sector, iDC has evolved into a full AI ecosystem — delivering production-ready solutions across industrial operations, back-office automation, and enterprise performance management. Our mission is to give organisations in any industry the tools to verify, automate, and continuously improve — through a fully digitised, AI-native platform.

A Team Built on Experience
John Hanson
Founder & CEO
In 2021, John co-founded Smartchain, using blockchain technology to automate payment workflows for upstream vendor contracts. Recognising that smart contract validity depends entirely on data quality, he established IDC in 2023 to certify drilling data from sensor to repository — and built CertifAI to deliver it.
