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.

New Partnership Between Alitheon and SIMBA Chain Solidifies the Missing Provenance Link Between the Physical and Digital Worlds
The combined solution provides supply chains, manufacturers and luxury retailers with a holistic solution to the authentication of physical items and the digital data that goes with them. There are several industries in which authenticating physical items generates value, namely by proving ownership and verifying attributes. For example, the authenticity and associated certifications of aircraft and automotive parts can be traced through the supply chain in real time, eliminating risks of false parts or subpar maintenance. Alternatively, luxury retailers can utilize such solutions to protect and maintain the authenticity and proof of ownership of their products across sales and resales.
“Alitheon’s technology identifies parts by their own unique features so that no serial number is needed.
The result is a new possibility for identifying parts, arguably better and more reliable than serial numbers.

“The FeaturePrint process allows the system to see an object once, and then verify it as often as needed over its lifetime.
For some applications, this might only be long enough to move a part across an assembly hall, for other cases it could be years later when it’s time for warranty service, customer support or recycling.
