Activity highlights
Raised a £4.2 million funding round in March 2026 to scale its AI-powered scent detection and biological intelligence platform, dot.core.

Digital Odour Technologies, operating under the brand dot, is a technology company that develops artificial intelligence-powered digital scent intelligence solutions. The company's core technology, dot.core™, is a proprietary intelligence engine designed to capture, structure, and analyze chemical signals from volatile organic compounds (VOCs). By integrating biology, chemistry, data science, and AI, the platform transforms these airborne signatures into predictive, actionable intelligence. This system is built to identify patterns associated with pests, pathogens, and environmental risks, enabling users to move from reactive responses to proactive protection across sectors including agriculture, human health, animal health, and environmental monitoring. The technology bridges the gap between laboratory research and real-world deployment, using a combination of sensor arrays and machine learning to improve accuracy over time.

The company provides critical value to partners by enabling earlier detection of biological threats, which helps safeguard ecosystems, food systems, and public health. By offering end-to-end scientific services, including discovery, validation, and regulatory consultancy through its division Arctech Innovation, the company supports organizations in co-developing and deploying custom scent-detection solutions. With recent investment to scale its operations globally, the company aims to establish a foundational infrastructure for biological intelligence. Their work is grounded in scientific rigor, leveraging expertise in entomology and chemical ecology to deliver solutions that provide foresight rather than just detection, ultimately helping stakeholders reduce costs and manage risks before they escalate into crises.
