Inspectorio

What Inspectorio does

Inspectorio is a Minneapolis-headquartered SaaS company founded in 2016 that provides an AI-powered supply chain management platform for global brands, retailers, and suppliers. The platform addresses production-chain pain points including quality defect reduction, responsible sourcing compliance, multi-tier traceability, production milestone tracking, supplier network visibility, and lab test coordination across verticals led by apparel and footwear and extending to food & beverage, home & furniture, multi-category retail, and outdoor and sports.

The core technology stack is a cloud-based SaaS platform organized around six integrated modules — Quality Risk Management, Responsible Sourcing and Compliance, Traceability and Transparency, Production Management, Supply Chain Network Management, and Lab Test Management — with a mobile field-inspection app (Inspectorio Sight) and compliance app (Inspectorio Rise). In November 2025, Inspectorio launched Paramo AI, a proprietary AI intelligence layer that overlays the platform with domain-specific Agents and Copilots (Factory Risk Copilot, Compliance and Quality Advisor Copilots, Traceability Validation agent) supporting generative AI, predictive analytics, NLP, anomaly detection, and process automation. The platform integrates with industry standards including Higg FEM, SLCP, PLM systems via a developer API, and partners with Google Cloud on enterprise deployments.

The business model is B2B SaaS with annual and multi-year subscription contracts, per-seat pricing for authorized users, tiered plans varying by features and storage, and quote-based enterprise pricing. GTM is sales-led with direct enterprise outreach augmented by self-serve cloud access and mobile apps. Inspectorio serves 15,000+ brands, retailers, and suppliers globally, with named enterprise customers including Target, Gap Inc., Dick's Sporting Goods, Urban Outfitters, Mango, Centric Brands, Crocs, Carter's, Renfro Brands, Vera Bradley, Lojas Renner, Delta Galil, Gildan, and Barco Uniforms. Hub offices span Minneapolis, Madrid, Ho Chi Minh City, and Hangzhou. The company has raised approximately $65M cumulatively, with the most recent round being a $50M Series B led by Insight Partners in January 2022. Chirag Patel became CEO in March 2024, succeeding co-founder Carlos Moncayo who remains Executive Chairman.
