Pros

The people at Standard AI are some of the sharpest and most talented I’ve worked with in retail tech — from engineering to product to sales, everyone is deeply knowledgeable, technically strong, and genuinely passionate about solving real problems in physical retail. The VISION Analytics platform is truly best-in-class, delivering privacy-first, edge-processed computer vision with impressive 3D body pose tracking and journey analytics that provide measurable ROI for retailers on existing cameras. On top of that, the culture is collaborative, transparent, and supportive, with approachable leadership that empowers people to move fast and own their work. There’s a genuine sense of purpose here — we’re helping retailers compete in the modern economy by turning their physical stores into intelligent, data-driven assets, and it feels incredibly meaningful to see customers achieve strong results in retail media, labor optimization, and merchandising.

Cons

None. But as a smaller, high-growth company, things naturally move very fast, but this also creates exciting opportunities to have broad impact.
