KeyMe’s AI-Powered Key Duplicator Technology Raises Another $50 Million

KeyMe, a New York-based start-up, received another $50 m************** in financing from Blackrock, bringing its ‘funding till-date’ grand total to $150 million. Earlier, the company received $25 million in September 2017, which followed the $20 million it received three years ago.

For people who don’t know about KeyMe’s services, it offers locksmith and key duplication service kiosks in almost all U.S. states by partnering with popular retailers. KeyMe’s unique technology can copy most keys available in the market in under 30 seconds — the support now extends to over 85% automobile keys. KeyMe’s Cloud-based application for key duplication on iOS and Android helps the user in the easy copy, share and save of keys.

Greg Marsh, CEO, KeyMe, said, “Our team is focused on providing unrivaled customer experience in this $12 billion a year industry. This new round of investment from BlackRock will allow us to further accelerate our product roadmap and increase our national reach as we bring our service to tens of millions of consumers and businesses.”

How this works is that customers insert their key at the kiosk and allow the machine to record their fingerprint. Post that, KeyMe’s Computer Vision and Machine Learning software get to work. End result — a 3D image of the key’s teeth assisting in making a duplicate (key) which is shipped to customers in a maximum of five working days.
