Uveye Secures $191 Million Extra Funding From Investors Including Toyota
February 7, 2025 by Mark Allinson
UVeye , a developer of AI-driven vehicle inspection technology, has closed a $191 million extension to its Series D funding round, bringing total funding to $380.5 million.
This latest infusion of capital, combining equity and debt, will fuel UVeye's efforts to meet surging global demand for its innovative systems and solidify its position as the market leader in the industry as the company nears a million vehicles scanned every month.
The funding round, led by Woven Capital –Toyota's growth fund– marks a significant milestone as Toyota becomes a new investor of UVeye.
Equity financing totaled $41 million with contributions from UMC Capital, MyBerg, and existing investors W.R. Berkley Corporation, Menora Mivtachim and More Investment House. Trinity Capital structured the $150 million debt facility.
Amir Hever, CEO and co-founder of UVeye, says:“UVeye is redefining the standard for vehicle inspections, and this investment from Toyota's growth fund underscores the global shift towards automated and AI-driven solutions.
“With hundreds of new installations planned for 2025, including major fleets, car manufacturers, and strategic applications in rental services, manufacturing lines, and seaport inspections, we're scaling at a pace that reflects the market's enormous hunger for our technology.”
UVeye's cutting-edge systems, described as an“MRI for vehicles,” deliver precise, data-driven insights by scanning all visible vehicle components in a matter of seconds.
Powered by advanced AI, these platforms are revolutionizing vehicle safety and efficiency, across dealerships, auctions, and a range of other industries.
In 2024, UVeye gained significant traction, with installations across North America and beyond, and was named as one of TIME's Best Inventions and Fast Company's World's Most Innovative Companies.
Will Fung, principal at Woven Capital, says:“UVeye has experienced remarkable growth across the mobility ecosystem, which speaks volumes about the exceptional leadership of Amir and his team, as well as the growing demand for advanced vehicle inspection technology.
“UVeye's platform will help deepen the connection between automotive service providers and their customers by delivering transparency and actionable insights that modernize the service experience.”
The new funding will drive UVeye's global expansion, increase large-scale manufacturing capacity, and strengthen strategic partnerships. In 2025, the company plans to deploy hundreds of systems worldwide, enabling the scanning of millions of vehicles annually and spearheading innovation across the automotive industry.
The $150 million debt facility, structured by Trinity Capital, includes an initial $100 million commitment with an option for an additional $50 million, specifically allocated to support the production of these advanced systems.
