What MULTINNOV does

MULTINNOV is a French designer and manufacturer of unmanned robotic systems built for closed-circuit television (CCTV) inspection of confined, inaccessible, or hazardous spaces. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Néville-sur-Mer, France, the company operates with a lean team of 1–10 employees and funds operations internally without disclosed external capital. Its portfolio centers on two anchor products: the Stereo 3, an indoor inspection drone that uses stereoscopic computer vision for stabilization and navigation, and the Roview 3, a wireless CCTV inspection crawler engineered primarily for sewer, pipe, and duct network assessment. The technology stack combines purpose-built hardware with vision-based navigation rather than disclosed AI/ML infrastructure.

The go-to-market is direct B2B enterprise sales into asset-intensive industries, with named customers spanning rail infrastructure (SNF Réseau), nuclear and conventional energy (EDF, TotalEnergies), water and waste management (Veolia), heavy industry and materials (ArcelorMittal, Heidelberg Materials), and third-party inspection services (Bureau Veritas, Apave, Mistras). Revenue mechanics are anchored on hardware unit sales of the Stereo 3 and Roview 3 systems, supplemented by an accessories and consumables channel via the multinnov.store e-commerce site. The commercial proposition emphasizes a claimed 70% cost reduction versus traditional inspection methods and a "Made in France" manufacturing positioning. At 1–10 employees and self-funded, the operating footprint is small relative to the enterprise scale of its customer base, and forward signals — a 2026 ArcelorMittal demonstration, 2026 product innovations, and the new accessories channel — point to active expansion despite limited disclosed financial or headcount data.

Core offering

MULTINNOV designs and manufactures drones and robots for visual (CCTV) inspection of complex and confined industrial environments, including underground networks, tanks, tunnels, chimneys, sewers and other inaccessible structures. Its product portfolio centers on two proprietary platforms — the Stereo 3 indoor inspection drone and the Roview 3 wireless TV inspection robot — complemented by accessories, spare parts, and technical support services.

Product overview

MULTINNOV is a French manufacturer specializing in drones and robots for TV inspection (CCTV) of complex and confined environments. The product portfolio consists of two core products: the Stereo 3 (indoor inspection drone for confined spaces) and the Roview 3 (wireless inspection robot for pipelines and sewer networks). Both products work together as complementary solutions - the Stereo 3 handles open confined spaces like tanks, tunnels, chimneys, and industrial structures, while the Roview 3 is designed specifically for navigating pipes, sewers, and underground canalization systems. The company also operates an online store (multinnov.store) for accessories. MULTINNOV serves industries including sewer/sanitation, nuclear, oil and gas, cement plants, industrial facilities, maritime, and storage/silo operations.

Direct peers

• Flyability: Swiss manufacturer of Elios indoor inspection drones designed for confined spaces in industrial environments (power plants, mines, sewers). Closest direct peer, sharing target customers (utilities, nuclear, oil & gas) and the exact same product category as Multinnov's Stereo 3.
• MAKRO Group: German manufacturer of pipe and sewer inspection crawlers, manhole cameras, and rehabilitation equipment. Competes directly with Multinnov in sewer/sanitation networks and industrial confined-pipe inspection.
• Deep Trekker: Canadian manufacturer of pipe, sewer, and tank inspection crawlers/ROVs and utility drones. Direct peer for Multinnov's Roview 3 CCTV sewer/pipe inspection robot, serving water utilities, municipal sewers, and industrial tank inspection markets.
• IPEK (IDEX): German-based crawler and CCTV sewer/pipe inspection robot manufacturer (now part of IDEX). Direct competitor to Roview 3 in municipal and industrial pipeline inspection markets across Europe.
• Sewer Robotics: Specialized manufacturer of sewer and pipe inspection robotics/crawlers for municipal networks. Direct competitor to Multinnov's Roview 3 in the same CCTV underground-network inspection niche.

Broad incumbents

• Skydio: US-based autonomous drone manufacturer focused on inspection, public safety, and defense. Competes for industrial inspection contracts (utilities, energy) though primarily an outdoor/GPS-dependent platform.
• DJI: World's largest commercial drone manufacturer with Matrice enterprise/industrial lines widely used for asset inspection. Competes in the broader industrial drone space, though typically outdoors with GPS, unlike Multinnov's GPS-free indoor drones.
• Teledyne FLIR: Major industrial thermal imaging and inspection camera provider with Black Hornet nano-UAV line. Overlaps with Multinnov on inspection sensors/cameras and competes in utility, oil & gas, and security inspection verticals.
• Parrot Drones: French drone manufacturer with commercial/enterprise inspection offerings (Anafi range). Comparable French origin and broader industrial drone portfolio overlapping with Multinnov's enterprise sales motion.
• Eddyfi Technologies (NDT): Non-destructive testing (NDT) equipment provider serving oil & gas, power, and aerospace inspection. Adjacent competitor serving many of the same enterprise customers as Multinnov (EDF, TotalEnergies, nuclear).
