Sention Technologies has secured a £3.7 million seed round to commercialise its battery diagnostics technologies. The round was led by Twin Path Ventures and joined by Doral Energy-Tech Ventures, Endgame Capital, Energy Revolution Ventures, G.K. Goh Ventures, Green Angel Ventures, Third Sphere and UK Innovation and Science Seed Fund.
The London-based start-up has developed proprietary ultrasonic scanning technology that provides unparalleled insights into the internal structure of batteries. Their revolutionary contactless technology allows customers to ‘see inside’ batteries by listening to them. By combining this rapid and low-cost technique with its AI-driven data fusion software, Sention predicts cell health, grades batteries, and forecasts failure. These capabilities empower battery manufacturers, technology developers and fleet integrators to reduce waste, enhance performance and improve safety.
Building on existing international sales, Sention will use the funds to accelerate the commercialisation of its Senturion ultrasound instruments that offer real-time, non-invasive 3D scanning of the internal structure of batteries, as well as its AI-driven data fusion software, Sentinel. The company will also invest in R&D for its next-generation product, Sentry, designed to integrate directly into production lines. Additional funding will support international customer acquisition, enabling Sention to serve a broader spectrum of battery manufacturers and energy innovators.
