San Francisco-based AI grocery startup Vori raised a $22M Series B led by Cherryrock Capital. Vori, which calls itself “the self-driving operating system for supermarkets,” processes payments, tracks inventory, reads supplier invoices, adjusts shelf prices, and creates purchase orders for independent grocery stores. The company is pitching itself to the 75% of operators outside the big-box orbit of Walmart and Amazon, which together control a quarter of the U.S. grocery market. Since launching in January 2024, Vori says it has processed more than $500M in payments across 55 cities and served more than 1M consumers.
