Edge Impulse announced the closing of a $15 million Series A investment round led by Canaan Partners with Acrew Capital, Fika Ventures, Momenta Ventures, and Knollwood Investment Advisory.

This funding will support the company's mission to democratize ML for millions of developers and engineers deploying to billions of edge devices.

Edge Impulse enables this data to be processed efficiently using machine learning optimized for the edge, making products smarter and improving privacy.

The Edge Impulse platform allows developers and engineers to create valuable datasets, then rapidly develop and deploy custom ML models to any edge device from battery-powered sensors to Linux-run GPUs capable of operating actuating pneumatics to robotic arms.

"We founded Edge Impulse with a mission to empower developers to create the next generation of intelligent devices. We believe that machine learning can enable positive change in society, and we are dedicated to supporting applications for good," said Zach Shelby, CEO and co-founder of Edge Impulse.

"Zach, Jan and the team at Edge Impulse have built a platform that empowers developers to go from idea to deployment of a novel use case of embedded machine learning within minutes," said Rayfe Gaspar-Asaoka, partner at Canaan Partners.
