Pure Lithium, a vertically integrated lithium metal battery technology company, has selected Voltaiq’s Enterprise Battery Intelligence (EBI) platform to provide advanced battery analytics and quality control essential to the commercialization of its next-generation lithium metal battery. The announcement marks a pivotal step for Pure Lithium as it transitions from research and development toward pilot-scale production and customer delivery.
The partnership aligns with Pure Lithium’s relocation to Chicago and the build-out of its first pilot line. As part of this move, the company will begin shipping sample cells to customers while optimizing production and data management across its new facility.
Previously, Pure Lithium relied on its own internal analytics tools. With its shift toward commercial-scale operations, the company selected Voltaiq to provide a scalable platform offering advanced analytics and expertise in both battery engineering and data management. In manufacturing applications, Voltaiq’s EBI platform can detect battery defects weeks earlier than traditional quality control methods, helping to accelerate factory ramp-up by as much as 50 percent.
Pure Lithium’s lithium metal battery pairs a lithium metal anode with a vanadium cathode, achieving more than 1,300 cycles at commercially relevant 1C and 1D charge rates. The vanadium cathode enables operation at temperatures up to 700°C, providing greater thermal stability and fire resistance compared to conventional lithium-ion chemistries.

The multi-year collaboration supports several key initiatives for Pure Lithium, including real-time battery quality monitoring, enhanced production operations, and seamless data continuity throughout its cross-country relocation. The Voltaiq platform also provides measurable cost savings and operational efficiencies compared with maintaining in-house analytics systems.
“As we bring a new anode production method online – something nobody has ever done before – we need a battery analytics platform that is robust and commercially focused,” said Emilie Bodoin, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Pure Lithium. “Just because you can build it, doesn’t mean you should. In today’s competitive environment, there is no dollar amount you can put on speed to market. We found the right software partner in Voltaiq and are accelerating our commercialization progress while freeing our team to focus on what they do best.”
“The Voltaiq team is proud to support Emilie and her team at Pure Lithium as they bring this much needed technology to market,” said Tal Sholklapper, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Voltaiq. “Lithium metal batteries, made from lithium that can be refined domestically, have transformational potential for the entire battery industry.”
