Works with the equipment you already have.

You’ve already invested millions in your equipment. You shouldn’t have to replace everything to modernize. Viam works with the hardware you already run and connects machines from any manufacturer through a single API. Add AI, connectivity, and automation on top with no overhaul required.

From problem to production, faster.

Custom integration slows everything down. Viam gives you the core infrastructure out of the box. Hardware abstraction, AI and ML, data pipelines, and fleet management are already handled. Your team can get straight to building what matters.

Your automation improves after installation.

Most automation starts aging the day it is installed. Viam does the opposite. Continuously capture production data, retrain models, and push updates over the air. No downtime and no manual rework. Your system improves with every cycle and your investment compounds.

Bring any hardware. Lock in to none.

Your floor runs equipment from multiple vendors. Viam connects them through a single API — arms, cameras, sensors, edge compute — regardless of manufacturer. Add new hardware with a config change. Replace a component without rewriting your application. No vendor lock-in, no stranded investment.
Plus hundreds more components supported through the Viam Registry.

How we partner

1
Pick a use case. Machine tending, palletizing, inspection, finishing, or more. Begin with a clear challenge. Viam engineers work with your team to evaluate a solution.
2
Build with Viam. Partner directly with us or through our global integration partners. We provide hands-on support, deep technical expertise, and guidance so your team can run and scale confidently.
3
You own what comes next. The solution runs on your floor and delivers your results. Because Viam is a platform, each deployment becomes the foundation to expand—new use cases, lines, and facilities—without starting over.

The Viam Platform

Never rebuild for new hardware

Use any hardware, from any manufacturer. Swap components with a config change. No rewrites, no lock-in.

Use any AI/ML model

Bring your own AI/ML models or build in Viam. Deploy across your fleet and run at the edge, no cloud required.

Build on reusable components

Use the Viam Registry of drivers, models, and configs. Every deployment builds on proven components.

Write software, not machine code

Develop in Python, Go, or TypeScript. Built-in versioning, rollback, and OTA updates.

Secure by default

ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type 2, and HIPAA compliant. Authentication, encryption, and role-based access control included.

Operate on any cloud

Fleet management, remote diagnostics, and 24/7 observability on any cloud. No vendor lock-in.

The system that gets smarter every shift.
SurfaceAI is Viam's production-grade robotic solution for high-precision finishing on custom manufactured parts. Built for high-dust, high-mix factory floors, the system sees each part, adjusts dynamically, and learns your process over time. It's the only robotic finishing system that gets better the more you use it.
