Ai Squared

Ai Squared develops innovative assistive technology solutions to enhance accessibility for individuals with low vision and blindness, supporting users in performing daily tasks with clarity and ease. Ai Squared specializes in assistive technology for individuals with visual impairments. The company was acquired by VFO, a portfolio company of Vector Capital, in June 2016. Ai Squared is headquartered in Manchester, US.

Ai Squared is focused on producing assistive technology products for individuals with blindness and low vision. Their core offerings include electronic video magnifiers, low vision magnifiers, and software solutions such as JAWS (Job Access With Speech) and ZoomText. These products help users with various tasks, including reading and viewing educational materials, and are distributed globally, reaching markets in North America, Europe, and Asia. Ai Squared generates revenue primarily from the sale of assistive technology products and software licenses, including flagship products like JAWS and ZoomText.

Their revenue model includes options for outright purchases or subscription plans for software, accommodating both individual consumers and institutional clients. Following the acquisition by VFO in June 2016, Ai Squared aims to expand its product line and enhance existing offerings. The company is focusing on launching new assistive products targeted for individuals with visual impairments, specifically looking to enter new geographic markets by 2025. Recent funding will support product development and market expansion initiatives.
