About Pensa Systems

Pensa Systems is a technology company based in Austin, Texas, founded in 2016.

It specializes in autonomous perception systems that digitize retail shelf inventory, addressing visibility challenges in the consumer packaged goods (CPG) and retail sectors. The company aims to tackle the significant issue of out-of-stocks and misplaced products by providing real-time shelf inventory data. The core offering includes a data-as-a-service model that utilizes advanced computer vision, patented artificial intelligence, and indoor drones to capture and analyze retail shelf data. This system provides actionable insights through a web-based dashboard, allowing clients to monitor out-of-stocks, compare shelf performance, verify price tag accuracy, and optimize product placement. Pensa Systems serves major global CPG brands and large retail chains, helping them minimize revenue losses and enhance inventory management. The company has raised approximately $41.9 million in funding from notable investors, including Alimentation Couche-Tard and ATX Venture Partners.
