FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
What is a physical AI workshop?
Physical AI is artificial intelligence that acts in the physical world: robotics, autonomous inspection, industrial automation and the systems around them. A workshop is a half-day or full-day working session applied directly to your portfolio or operations, in plain terms an AI strategy workshop for a private equity firm, an investor or a corporate, run by an operator who builds these systems.
Who is Veeran Advisory for?
Veeran Advisory works with capital allocators, founders and operators: investment firms, family offices, corporates and institutions weighing decisions about AI, robotics and the infrastructure beneath them. It publishes independent research on physical AI and capital allocation, written for three audiences, allocators, operators and observers, and the engagements follow the same logic.
How do engagements work?
By application. Write through the contact page with the decision or deal in front of you, and if the work fits, scope, format and timelines are agreed before anything begins. Veeran takes a small number of engagements at a time.
What is the Veeran Brief?
The Veeran Brief is a fortnightly newsletter on the machine age and the capital moving through it, read at three altitudes: what the fortnight means for allocators, for operators, and for observers. Where the Brief makes a claim about a number, it is scored against the official release. It is independent research and commentary, and it is not investment advice.
Who writes the research?
All of it is written by Rohith Devanathan, the founder of Veeran Advisory and the founder and chief executive of ScrubMarine, an autonomous underwater robotics company. The memoranda and the Brief carry one voice by design.
What is Veeran Advisory’s connection to robotics?
Its founder runs ScrubMarine, a venture-backed company building autonomous robots that inspect, clean and test underwater infrastructure for energy and maritime operators. The research is written from inside that work: the constraints, costs and timelines described in the memoranda come from building and deploying physical AI, and from assessing it for investors.
How do I commission diligence on a robotics or AI company?
Write through the contact page with the opportunity in front of you: the company, the stage, and the decision you need to make. Per-deal diligence is a focused technical and commercial assessment of robotics, maritime and physical AI opportunities, in plain terms robotics due diligence, commissioned for a single deal at a time and agreed in scope before work begins.
