Cognyx is a VC-backed Technology company on a mission to re-invent hardware's "source code" and #1 bottleneck in Manufacturing Product Development: the BOM (Bill of Materials). We leverage a combination of Agentic AI, Knowledge Graphs and SaaS to cut early R&D cycle times by 30 to 50%, enhance standardization, enforce QA & Compliance rules, and dramatically increase Engineering efficiency. Some of the World's leading manufacturers in Automotive, Aerospace or Special Machines already use Cognyx to accelerate their early Development phases, in contexts where velocity is critical (RFQ's, fast prototyping, early R&D…). Seamlessly connected with PLMs & ERPs, Cognyx empowers Engineering, Manufacturing and Procurement teams to collaborate on an AI-powered multi-BOM to quickly build, align and optimize their BOM under all constraints. Founded by repeat entrepreneurs Deon van der Vyver (CTO) and Matthias Berahya-Lazarus (CEO), along with industry-leading startup studio OSS Ventures, Cognyx secured a 2.5m Pre-seed total funding in 2024 from BPI Digital Ventures and Europe's best business angels from Tech, AI and Manufacturing.
