Gorilla Capital invests in Vireum

Gorilla Capital Fund III has made its 53rd investment in Vireum — a technology company bringing vision AI and real-time production intelligence to industrial manufacturing.

Introducing Vireum

Manufacturers need accurate and real-time visibility into product quality and production performance. Yet quality inspection is still often manual, resource-intensive, and disconnected from production data. This slows decision-making and makes it harder to improve efficiency.

Vireum addresses this challenge with a vision AI platform that turns standard industrial cameras into intelligent tools for automated quality control and real-time production analytics. The platform can be integrated into existing production environments without downtime or major hardware investments.

By combining image data with industrial sensor and measurement data, Vireum helps manufacturers monitor product quality with high accuracy and gain a real-time view of production performance, material efficiency, and operational bottlenecks. The solution can also be integrated with enterprise resource planning systems, automation systems, and production management systems, giving management a clearer picture of what is happening in production.

An important part of the model is data control. Vireum enables a secure deployment approach where hardware and data remain within the customer’s own operational environment. This supports data security and gives customers full control over sensitive production information.

Founder’s Comment

“Manufacturing companies need practical tools that help them improve quality and understand what is happening in production in real time,” says Antti Väänänen, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Vireum. “At Vireum, we are building a platform that makes intelligent quality control and production insight more accessible in everyday industrial operations. Gorilla Capital’s view of building companies with discipline, focus, and steady progress fits well with how we want to build the company.”
