Vention

Vention provides a unified ecosystem for rapid industrial and physical AI-powered automation, built on its Manufacturing Automation Platform (MAP). Its software suite includes CAD-based design (MachineBuilder), no-code and Python programming, digital-twin simulation and cloud deployment (MachineLogic), and real-time monitoring and analytics (MachineAnalytics). Customers use the platform to design, program, and deploy robotic cells, palletizers, conveyors, machine-tending systems, automated inspection, and other factory automation workflows. All systems are built from Vention’s modular, plug-and-play hardware (frames, actuators, conveyors, sensors, and AI-ready vision components) engineered for fast deployment and robot-agnostic integration. Vention Flagship product MachineMotion AI (MMAI) unifies motion control, AI decisioning, and vision processing in a single device. With Physical AI embedded across hardware and software, manufacturers can go from design to production in days rather than months.

Vention pairs capital equipment sales with recurring software revenue. Customers purchase modular hardware and can subscribe to intelligent software, such as MachineAnalytics, with advanced AI features. This hybrid model enables manufacturers to adopt automation flexibly, scale efficiently, and unlock the full potential of Physical AI in a short amount of time. 

“Traditional industrial automation is complex, fragmented across many suppliers, and often demands deep technical expertise and long commissioning cycles,” said Etienne Lacroix, CEO of Vention. “Manufacturers are now asking for the opposite. They want automation that is as intuitive, unified, and reliable as modern software. Physical AI is what finally makes that possible.”
