Tiliter is a Sydney-based computer-vision company that turns ordinary camera images into structured operational data. It began by solving product recognition at retail scale - identifying fresh produce and unbarcoded goods at self-checkout with high accuracy and no stickers - and has since expanded into a broader platform of AI 'Vision Agents' for verification, inspection, counting, damage detection, OCR and cleanliness auditing across retail, logistics, manufacturing, healthcare and industrial operations.
