Viam

Viam is a New York-based software platform that lets engineers build, deploy, and manage AI, data, and automation in the physical world across any hardware - from a single prototype to a global fleet. Founded in 2020 by MongoDB co-founder and former CTO Eliot Horowitz, Viam treats robots, sensors, cameras, and machines as programmable building blocks, giving hardware and software teams a common, modular, largely open-source stack. It powers everything from arena concession lines to robotic kitchens, marine sonar, and industrial equipment, and has raised $117M to date.
