We are delighted to announce our participation in Algorized’s $4.3 million Seed round, joining prominent investors including Amazon Industrial Innovation Fund, Acrobator Ventures, Berkeley SkyDeck, CoreNest Capital, and shuckerVC.

Algorized’s technology addresses key challenges such as meeting new regulatory requirements in automotive, improving safety and efficiency in warehouses by enabling human-robot interactions, and enhancing public safety in urban environments. By integrating seamlessly with existing infrastructure, Algorized allows businesses to adopt smarter, safer, and more efficient systems without adding unnecessary complexity or cost. We are excited to support Algorized as they advance their vision of advancing AI-powered people-sensing technology.
