MONTREAL, 29. Oktober 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Ventiondeveloper of the world’s only AI-powered full-stack software and hardware automation platform, today announced the next evolution of intelligent manufacturing, the vision of its vision Zero-Shot Automation™ brings you closer. At the 6th Annual Demo Day, Vention introduced new features that help businesses automate without relying on traditional hardware integration or complex programming. The innovations include tools that further open the platform to a global community of developers and robotics experts, as well as expanded simulation and AI capabilities that help companies move more quickly through the phases from design to commissioning.
Since its first Demo Day in 2020, Vention has transformed its platform into a software-defined automation environment that unifies hardware, software and AI in a unified customer experience. Today, the Vention platform is used by more than 25,000 machines in 4,000 factories worldwide – for individual projects and turnkey automation solutions such as palletizing, welding and machine assembly. The result is demonstrable performance, faster payback and a significantly shortened path from idea to production.
“Our mission from the beginning has been to make automation accessible to everyone,” said Etienne Lacroix, founder and CEO of Vention, at Demo Day 2025. “With Zero-Shot Automation, we are building the technology stack of the future for industrial automation. Hardware and software are completely unified and AI is seamlessly integrated from the cloud to the edge. This is an important step towards simple, intelligent and powerful automation.”
Vention introduces AI Operator and introduces key features of the platform
A highlight of this year’s Demo Day was the global introduction of the Operator AI Vention’s latest automation solution that brings advanced AI models directly to the shop floor for unstructured applications such as bin picking, i.e. grabbing objects of different shapes and sizes. AI Operator is now available on the Vention platform; Implementations in manufacturing environments will be rolled out worldwide by early 2026.
Powered by the MachineMotion AI Controller, which was already presented at Demo Day 2024, AI Operator is based on NVIDIA infrastructure as well as the NVIDIA Isaac -Libraries and AI models. This provides the computing power required for demanding industrial AI applications.
At Demo Day 2025, Vention also presented important developments that make the platform even more intuitive and accessible for manufacturers, developers and robotics experts:
Developer Toolkit opens the platform for developers and robotics experts
Vention’s new developer toolkit offers a command line interface (CLI), pre-built project templates, and ready-to-use libraries for machines, device communications, data storage, and user interfaces. Developers and robotics specialists can now work locally or in the cloud, use their preferred workflows and thus further expand their creativity on the Vention platform. Simulation Checker allows testing before the first code
A new simulation environment delivers realistic results before the first line of code is written. Gravity, collisions and movements behave exactly as they do in the production environment. This allows manufacturers to validate their automation projects with the highest level of security right from the start. RemoteView video recording for secure and transparent operations
To support asset monitoring and optimization, Vention uses RemoteView to record complete operational history, including status messages and alerts. This allows teams to more quickly track issues such as operator errors or collisions, resolve disruptions and avoid costly downtime. Vention Projects simplifies planning and collaboration in automation
Based on the industry’s largest library of machine specifications, Vention Projects provides a centralized workflow for defining automation scope and requirements. The tool reduces manual documentation and communication gaps so that teams are aligned early in the process and projects move accurately from concept to release.
NVIDIA explains the role of AI in agile manufacturing; Customers report on their successes
Amit Goel, Head of Robotics & Edge Computing at NVIDIA, attended Demo Day to discuss the growing importance of AI in agile manufacturing and the technological advances powering Vention’s AI Operator. He emphasized that GPU-accelerated edge computing as well as CUDA-accelerated libraries and AI models are redefining the way automation systems sense, adapt and act in real-time.
“With Vention’s AI Operator, it is now possible to use robotics in applications that require continuous updates and greater flexibility,” said Goel. “All of these functions are now directly available.”
Executives of Cripps & Sons Woodworking, McAlpine & Co. Ltd. and Solestial, Inc. presented at Demo Day the successes they have achieved in collaboration with Vention: from shortened design cycles to fully implemented automation systems that lead to measurable improvements in production.
Demo Day 2025 starts on October 29th at 4:00 p.m. CET vention.io/demo-day accessible online
