The company's technology stack integrates Vision AI, Agentic AI, IoT sensors, and Digital Twin capabilities into a unified middleware called Amiware, which connects business information systems (ERP, WMS, TMS, POS) to physical-layer execution. The core product portfolio includes Sentinel AI (video analytics and surveillance), Disha (digital shelf intelligence), Neometry (volumetric and damage profiling), Neo ICR (invoice OCR), Neo QCR (batch and expiry intelligence), Agentic RAG (intelligent data retrieval), Amisense (cold chain monitoring), and a Digital Twin simulation engine. Verticalized solutions built on this stack include Safe2Eat for FSSAI-aligned food safety compliance, NeoJewelry for jewellery retail, and a Smart Enterprises suite covering HRMS, CRM, marketing, and finance automation.

Neophyte.ai serves enterprise customers primarily across Indian retail, FMCG, logistics, and jewelry sectors. Named deployments include Tanishq, Indriya (Aditya Birla Group), Croma (Tata), Flipkart, Reliance Smart, Reliance Trends, Reliance Digital, Blushlace, 7-Eleven, and FM Logistics. Revenue is generated through three streams: SaaS-style subscriptions for AI platform modules, professional services for implementation and re-architecting, and hardware sales for proprietary IoT and Vision AI devices (VisionCave, VisionTunnel, Neo-Handheld, NeoLens Pro). The company operates a consultative enterprise field-sales motion with quote-based pricing, supported by strategic distribution partnerships with Jio Platforms (a Reliance Industries subsidiary), EagleEye London, and Fynd. Co-founded by Anurag Sahoo (CEO) and Dr. Abhinav Anand (CTO), Neophyte.ai operates as a privately-held firm with no disclosed external funding, is an Authorized GS1 System Integrator Solution Provider, and employs 51–100 people.
