EVident Battery has announced that it has secured $3.2 million in seed funding to advance its non-destructive EV battery pack inspection technology. The round was led by Ibex Investors, with participation from Nationwide Ventures, Automotive Ventures, Avesta Fund, and angel investors in the EV sector.
The funding will support the launch of EVident’s pilot product, expand its engineering and business development teams, and accelerate development of its automated, AI-powered battery pack inspection systems. The company’s approach enables high-speed, non-intrusive diagnostics of battery pack components that typically go unassessed by cell-level inspection methods.
EVident’s inspection platform comprehensively evaluates battery pack health—beyond cell chemistry—by analyzing internal structures, insulation, thermal systems, enclosures, and seals. The company’s automated diagnostic process is supported by machine learning algorithms that correlate vibration data signatures with known failure modes. The system delivers a detailed report on battery condition, estimated lifespan, and financial valuation in under two minutes.
“We are thrilled to benefit from the support of top automotive investors who share our vision to bring transparency and certainty to the EV market for a more sustainable future powered by innovative solutions,” said Jinqiang Ning, CEO of EVident Battery. “This funding allows us to accelerate our roadmap, bringing to market battery inspection technology that is not only high-performing but also environmentally conscious. Our goals are to standardize EV battery service and inspection and to build a centralized EV battery database for full transparency.”
Unlike traditional methods that require disassembly and can void warranties, EVident’s system is nondestructive and nonintrusive. This makes it suitable for use across the EV ecosystem—including fleet operators, repair shops, OEMs, dealerships, and insurers—where speed, safety, and cost efficiency are critical.
“We are at a pivotal moment in the world’s transition to electric vehicles. In this rapidly evolving sector, the reliability and performance of battery packs are critical issues for manufacturers, service providers, and consumers,” said Steve Greenfield, General Partner at Automotive Ventures. “Developing safer and higher-performing batteries is a critical step in the journey of electrifying transportation. EVident’s team has demonstrated a clear path to revolutionizing battery inspection technology, which is essential for a sustainable future.”
Jeff Peters, Partner and Head of Mobility VC at Ibex Investors, will join EVident’s Board of Directors. “Most attention from automakers and startups is focused on cell-related battery state of health. However, an EV is much more than a collection of cells. EVident has created a highly unique diagnostic for the structural integrity of the entire battery pack. We are incredibly excited about the opportunity this technology unlocks in manufacturing quality control, on-going monitoring, the second-hand EV market, and ultimately end-of-life disposition.”
EVident’s pilot launch marks a key milestone toward commercialization. The platform will be tested in real-world environments, with performance feedback informing ongoing model refinement and scaled deployment.
