VisioLab
AI-powered self-checkout for food service
About
Founded in 2020 and based in Osnabrück, Germany, VisioLab develops AI-powered visual self-checkout technology designed to reinvent the checkout experience in food service and sports venues globally. Its platform autonomously recognizes purchased items via computer vision, enabling frictionless checkout without traditional scanning. VisioLab's business model involves licensing its AI checkout platform to food service providers and large venue operators, streamlining operations and enhancing customer experience. It raised $11 million in Series A funding led by eCAPITAL Entrepreneurial Partners and Simon Capital in April 2026 to scale globally.
