WHO WE ARE
Verkada is transforming how organizations protect their people and places with
an integrated, privacy-sensitive AI-powered platform that includes solutions for
video security, access control, air quality sensors, alarms, intercoms, and
visitor management.
We’ve got serious momentum in the market: more than 30,000 customers (including
100+ of the Fortune 500), a $5.8B valuation
[https://www.cnbc.com/2025/12/03/verkada-capitalg-valuation-security.html], more
than $1 billion in annualized bookings, and backing from CapitalG, Sequoia
Capital, General Catalyst, Felicis Ventures, Next47 and more. Physical AI is one
of the most consequential technology shifts of our time, and Verkada is at the
center of it.
You can look at all kinds of communities to see our platform’s impact in the
world. It's the retailer that uses our agentic AI to deter theft before it
happens. The warehouse that uses AI-powered alerts to make sure its team is
protected on the floor with proper PPE. The school that’s alerted to a threat in
real-time and triggers a lockdown in seconds, not minutes. We’re rapidly scaling
this impact: today, more than 2 million Verkada devices are deployed across 170+
countries.
