Glass Imaging Raises $20 Million Funding Round To Expand AI Imaging Technologies

LOS ALTOS, Calif., May 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Glass Imaging, a company harnessing the power of artificial intelligence to revolutionize digital image quality, today unveiled a Series A funding round led by global software investor Insight Partners. The $20 million round will allow Glass Imaging to continue to refine and implement their proprietary GlassAI technologies across a wide range of camera platforms - from smartphones to drones to wearables and more. The Series A round was joined by previous Glass Imaging investors GV (Google Ventures), Future Ventures and Abstract Ventures.

Glass Imaging uses artificial intelligence to extract the full image quality potential on current and future cameras by reversing lens aberrations and sensor imperfections. Glass works with manufacturers to integrate GlassAI software to boost camera performance 10x resulting in sharper, more detailed images under various conditions that remain true to life with no hallucinations or optical distortions.

"At Glass Imaging we are building the future of imaging technology," said Ziv Attar, Founder and CEO, Glass Imaging. "GlassAI can unlock the full potential of all cameras to deliver stunning ultra-detailed results and razor sharp imagery. The range of use cases and opportunities across industry verticals are huge."

"GlassAI leverages edge AI to transform Raw burst image data from any camera into stunning, high-fidelity visuals," said Tom Bishop, Ph.D., Founder and CTO, Glass Imaging. "Our advanced image restoration networks go beyond what is possible on other solutions: swiftly correcting optical aberrations and sensor imperfections while efficiently reducing noise, delivering fine texture and real image content recovery that outperforms traditional ISP pipelines."

"We're incredibly proud to lead Glass Imaging's Series A round and look forward to what the team will build next as they seek to redefine just how great digital image quality can be," said Praveen Akkiraju, Managing Director, Insight Partners. "The ceiling for GlassAI integration across any number of platforms and use cases is massive. We're excited to see this technology expand what we thought cameras and imaging devices were capable of." Akkiraju will join Glass Imaging's board and Insight's Jonah Waldman will join Glass Imaging as a board observer.

Glass Imaging previously announced a $9.3M extended Seed funding round in 2024 led by GV and joined by Future Ventures, Abstract and LDV Capital. That funding round followed an initial Seed investment in 2021 led by LDV Capital along with GroundUP Ventures.
