At a time when artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping industries across the globe, Verkada is betting that one of the biggest transformations will happen far from Silicon Valley chatbots and productivity software—in the physical world.
The company, which builds AI-powered security systems for schools, hospitals, warehouses, office buildings and industrial sites, is increasingly using generative AI to prevent crimes before they happen rather than simply recording them afterward.
“We solve a problem in the world which we think is extremely important, which is safety in the physical world,” Verkada CEO Filip Kaliszan told Benzinga in an interview. “You could think of it as bringing physical AI into the world to deliver safety.”
That push is scaling quickly. Verkada now serves more than 30,000 customers globally, manages over 2 million devices and generated roughly $1 billion in sales last year.
