AVIAN raised USD 2.6 million in pre-seed funding led by Founderful to expand its industrial monitoring systems beyond wood-processing plants. The Zurich-area company combines infrared cameras, anomaly detection and alerts to identify overheating machinery before failures escalate.
Its cameras continuously monitor equipment such as bearings, conveyors and electrical cabinets, learning the normal temperature patterns at each site. The platform adds maintenance reports and human support, with the funding directed toward engineering and deployment capacity. AVIAN reported installations at approximately 50 sites in nine countries at the announcement.
