Aveer is changing the way businesses think about tracking their goods by introducing a cutting-edge hardware transformation to Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. Acquired from Cornell University after a decade of research, Aveer’s technology modernizes RFID asset tracking to enable new capabilities like frictionless checkout, real-time inventory monitoring, hyper-accurate item localization, and even efficiency discovery in scenarios such as warehousing and manufacturing.
RFID has been a mainstay in asset tracking for 15 years now. However, in facing increasingly complex logistics systems, this technology has become significantly less reliable. Aveer has solved this problem with the first breakthrough in RFID technology in over a decade. Our hardware brings reliability levels to above 99% and enables item localization down to the centimetre. With Aveer, business customers now have an option to improve their asset tracking and introduce exciting new functionalities without encountering a cost-prohibitive system retrofit.
Aveer will allow clients along the entire supply chain to drastically reduce costs due to inefficiencies, improve customer experiences online and in-store, and harmonize their supply chain management from the manufacturing plant all the way to the check-out counter.
Financing: Aveer is backed by the most successful deep-tech start-up foundry in Canada, TandemLaunch, with $800k in seed financing, whose next financing round scheduled for Q3-Q4 2021.
