  Participated · Series B · Jun 2023

  LiLz offers battery-powered wireless IoT cameras paired with a cloud-based AI platform (LiLz Cloud) that automates image analysis, inspection recording, reporting, and anomaly detection. Its product suite includes LiLz Gauge for automated meter inspections and LiLz Guard for detecting changes in equipment condition, plus industrial camera models such as explosion-proof and thermal imaging units. The system is designed for industrial sites with limited wiring or communication infrastructure, allowing remote monitoring without major power or network installation. LiLz targets heavy industries—steel, petrochemicals, chemicals, and shipbuilding—where aging equipment and labor shortages make manual inspection increasingly difficult. Through the new alliance with Hyakujushi Kyoso Investment and Hyakujushi Bank’s regional network, LiLz plans to accelerate adoption across the Setouchi manufacturing zone.
