Andavi Solutions, which sells sales execution software to drinks and consumer goods brands, acquired Bengaluru-based Infilect for an undisclosed price. Infilect’s image recognition software reads photos and videos of store shelves, displays, menus, and back bars to track which products are stocked, how much shelf space they get, what they cost, and what competitors are doing. With the two combined, a field rep can take a photo of a shelf on a store visit and get suggested next steps almost immediately, instead of filling out a manual survey. The joint product is already live with beverage alcohol customers, and Infilect will keep its team and current product.
