Vention

Vention is dedicated to democratizing industrial automation, making it accessible and affordable for manufacturers worldwide. Many manufacturers face the challenge of high costs and complexity associated with traditional automation technologies, often requiring specialized integrators. Vention addresses this by providing a cloud-first, self-serve platform that empowers businesses to design, automate, order, and deploy manufacturing equipment directly from their web browser. This approach simplifies the automation process, enabling companies to automate their production floors in just a few days. Our customers, ranging from tooling designers and roboticists to operations leaders and system integrators, benefit from an end-to-end hardware and software stack that removes integration risks. We help them design jigs, fixtures, workstations, and modular equipment in minutes, with next-day shipping options. Roboticists can easily program and discover a comprehensive stack for industrial automation and robotics, while operations leaders can scale their operations with turnkey applications like palletizing and machine tending. System integrators can leverage our platform to accelerate their growth by providing their expertise to the Vention community across North America and Europe.

Our integrated hardware and software ecosystem represents a new approach to industrial automation, removing technology risks and unlocking simplicity for all manufacturers looking to begin their automation journey. The platform features intuitive tools like MachineBuilder for 3D CAD design, MachineLogic for code-free or Python programming of various devices, and MachineCloud for deploying digital twins from the cloud to the factory floor. This allows for physics-based simulation and cycle-time analysis before committing capital, de-risking deployment. Furthermore, MachineAnalytics provides real-time insights and historical data to optimize performance. By offering a unified platform, Vention helps businesses achieve automation up to three times faster than traditional methods and realize savings of around 40%, often with a payback period of under one year. We are committed to supporting our clients throughout their automation journey, from free discovery sessions to streamlined e-commerce ordering and deployment assistance, ensuring project success. Thousands of users and factories globally rely on our Manufacturing Automation Platform (MAP) for their automation needs.
