Our Story

Alitheon was launched in 2017 by some really smart people with tremendous real-world experience combining advanced mathematics and machine vision.  The goal was to tackle the real $2.3T problem of counterfeit goods, untraceable items, and poor identification of physical products.

The first chapter of our story , called Something from Nothing, was about creating the technology and proving to ourselves that it worked. With many a mistake along the way and more than a few proverbial rabbit holes, we were ready to move on to our next chapter – Going to Market. We are now providing our amazing FeaturePrint solution to customers, enabling them to do things they could only imagine before.

 

 

Our Vision for the Future

 

People trust that items are what they think they are by easily and rapidly identifying anything, anywhere, anytime, with just a camera.

Optical AI Solution Identifies and Authenticates Goods

Alitheon has been aiming to address challenges that have resulted from, in part, the changing environment of retail sales. As shopping takes place increasingly online, with distributed supply chains, the potential for fraud, errors, or losses increases. One example is gray market sales when legitimate goods are sold through unauthorized channels, which leads to loss of revenue and integrity for the manufacturer or brand. In some cases, it can also be a safety risk, for example, if a medicine has expired and is being resold. Beyond gray market and counterfeit goods, however, is the problem of supply chain, says Ganzarski. “People want to know: ‘Where are my items? Where have they been?’”
