Verity's mission is to make robotics take flight.
While supply chain automation has been a major focus for investment in recent years, inventory management has been left behind, with the work of checking stock levels usually carried out manually. Verity AG aims to change this with a fleet of autonomous indoor drones that can be deployed to automatically check an entire warehouse's inventory, completely removing the need for expensive and error-prone manual processes.
As the only commerically viable product in this space, Verity currently faces very little competition. By removing the need for human operatives it is able to reduce the error rate to zero within 12 months and rapidly yields a return on its customers investment while also cutting carbon emissions considerably. The system is currently installed on over 30 sites with IKEA being the latest major company to deploy Verity's drones in their warehouses.
Verity has recently raised significant funding in a Series B round, which will be used by the company to scale its operations. Just in time too : there are a large number of companies on its waiting list, and with more than 150,000 warehouses worldwide still relying on manual inventory checks there is a huge market to grow into.
