Maneva builds a data and control layer for manufacturing that leverages proprietary physical AI and vision-language models to convert existing camera infrastructure into real-time operational intelligence. Its models, VITA and ALIS, run on NVIDIA edge devices and integrate with sensors and equipment signals to detect safety issues, bottlenecks and inefficiencies, diagnose root causes, and trigger automated responses across machinery, workflows and teams. The company serves customers across confectionery, wood, glass, steel, meat processing, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and distribution sectors. Maneva plans to expand globally and roll out factory orchestration features and AI knowledge agents using proceeds from its Series A. The company has raised $38.4m in total capital to date and is led by CEO Rae Jeong and CTO Kelvin Chan.
