Vigia

What Vigia does

Vigia AG is a Swiss-headquartered software company that develops and operates compliance and supply-chain traceability platforms for regulated industries. The company's flagship product, Cannavigia, provides end-to-end visibility and automated regulatory enforcement for the legal cannabis industry — from cultivation (with GACP and GlobalGAP-compatible documentation) through manufacturing (quality assurance, formulas, testing) to point-of-sale dispensing with automatic consideration of dispensing limits and quotas in Switzerland. A ten-year contractual relationship with the Swiss Federal Office of Public Health (BAG/FOPH) for cannabis compliance software underpins the company's regulatory-grade positioning and provides a flagship government reference account.

The platform architecture is structured as a shared compliance backbone extended via vertical-specific sub-brands: Phytovigia for phytopharmaceuticals, Nutravigia for nutraceuticals and supplements, and Biovigia for bio-based compounds. Cannavigia itself is modular, with distinct cultivation, manufacturing, and marketing modules that integrate traceability data, while analytics tools expose the underlying transaction data for operational decision-making. As of the reported period, the platform tracks approximately 10 million plants, processes over 100,000 transactions through its Swiss dispensary system, and serves 150+ businesses across more than 20 countries. Integration partners include GS1 (global supply chain identifiers) and AROYA (cultivation hardware), with industry associations IG Hanf and BVCW providing distribution and credibility in Swiss and German cannabis markets, respectively.

Vigia monetizes primarily through annual SaaS subscriptions, with enterprise-tailored pricing disclosed only via demo-based sales engagement rather than public tiers. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct, supported by an inbound Typeform demo funnel and an industry-association referral layer; no self-serve pricing exists. The company maintains three offices (Zurich headquarters, Lisbon as a European satellite, and Bangkok as an APAC satellite). Ownership appears to be founder-controlled, with three representatives — Lucas Richner, Philipp Hagenbach, and Elias Galantay — and no disclosed parent, venture capital, or private equity backing.
