SwitchOn builds AI-powered visual inspection systems for manufacturers to automatically detect defects on production lines using computer vision.
$8MPre-Series B
An $8M pre-Series B for manufacturing inspection signals that visual AI for physical processes is moving past proof-of-concept—investors are betting on unit economics that work at scale. SwitchOn likely uses this to expand sales ops and build out vertical-specific models (automotive, electronics, pharma each need different training). If you're building any kind of defect detection, quality control, or asset monitoring system, watch how they price and deploy: the playbook for selling AI to risk-averse manufacturers is still being written, and their go-to-market will tell you whether it's land-and-expand or land-and-customize.
