The automotive technology company UVeye has secured $100 million in Series D funding to continue developing its automated vehicle inspection solutions. New York and Tel Aviv-based venture capital firm Hanaco VC led the company’s most recent funding round. GM Ventures, CarMax, W.R. Berkley Corporation, F.I.T. Ventures L.P., and Israeli institutional investors were among the existing investors who took part in the Series D financing.
UVeye, with offices in Teaneck, New Jersey, and Tel Aviv, Israel, provides the automotive and homeland security industries with inspection systems for vehicles using cutting-edge AI, computer vision, and machine learning technology.
Commercial agreements with General Motors, Volvo Cars USA, and CarMax, as well as more than 5,000 U.S. dealerships, used-car auctions, and fleets, were announced by UVeye in 2022 and early 2023.
“UVeye’s goal is to both revolutionize and standardize how the auto industry detects vehicle damage and mechanical issues,” stated Amir Hever, CEO and co-founder of UVeye. To quote our company’s website: “Our patent-protected technology provides unmatched solutions for quickly and accurately identifying vehicle problems, setting new quality standards in the industry, for automakers, dealers, and fleet operators.”
