What Veesion does

Veesion SAS is a French AI software company founded in 2018 in Bordeaux and headquartered operationally between Paris and Lisbon. The company develops a computer vision platform that analyzes existing in-store CCTV camera feeds to detect gestures and concealment behaviors associated with retail theft in real time, without using facial recognition or identity tracking. When the system identifies high-risk gestures, it sends short mobile video alerts to store staff so they can intervene before a theft is completed. The algorithm is retrained monthly on retail-environment data, and the deployed fleet processes over 100,000 suspicious gestures per month across 6,000+ stores in 55+ countries.

The core product is a single unified SaaS platform that requires no additional hardware — it integrates with existing CCTV infrastructure and can be operational within days. Veesion's three primary customer verticals are grocery and supermarkets, pharmacies, and specialty retail (including convenience stores, home improvement, and DIY), with named enterprise customers spanning SPAR, 7-Eleven, Circle K, Carrefour, E.Leclerc, Intermarché, Conad, Eurospin, Leroy Merlin, and Intersport, alongside independent SMB pharmacies. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales, a channel partner program recruiting security and IT resellers, and an event-driven motion at major retail trade shows such as EuroShop, Pharmagora, and The NGA Show.

Veesion generates revenue through annual subscription contracts on a quote-based pricing model, with contract values driven by store count, camera count, and retail sector. The company has raised approximately €48 million cumulatively across equity rounds — a €10M Series A in March 2022 led by Odyssée Venture and a €38M Series B in May 2025 led by White Star Capital with participation from Bpifrance, Founders Future, Red River West, and Verve Ventures. Strategic partnerships include SPAR International (February 2026) for global retail deployment and ALL-TAG (February 2026) for EAS ecosystem integration.
