Vendors self-report.
The company sending the invoice is the company counting the work. Nobody audits the meter.
The verification & settlement layer for the robot economy
Your robots did the work.
Prove it. Bill it.
Cadence independently verifies what every robot actually did — every pick, pallet, acre, and square foot — then settles payment on the numbers both sides trust. Per-outcome pricing, finally possible.

01 — The problem
The robot economy runs on self-graded homework
Flat fees block adoption.
$2,000/robot/month locks out every operator too small to saturate a robot. The mid-market wants to pay per pick — no one can offer it credibly.
Disputes burn trust.
One contested invoice becomes a 45-minute phone fight with no shared evidence. Multiply by every robot, every month.
02 — How it works
Two feeds. One truth. Zero arguments.
-
1
Connect
Read-only connectors to the robot fleet API and the operator's system of record — WMS, route logs, job tickets. No write access, ever. Nothing about operations changes.
-
2
Reconcile
Cadence matches every claimed event against the independent record. Matched events are billable. Unmatched events are flagged with evidence both parties see.
-
3
Settle
A monthly Verified Work Statement — the robot's bank statement — signed by both sides. Attach it to an invoice today; let Cadence hold and release funds tomorrow.
03 — Who it's for
Who Cadence is for
For robotics vendors
Close the deals your pricing model is blocking
- Offer per-pick, per-pallet, per-acre pricing with a neutral referee behind every number.
- Unlock the mid-market tier that flat RaaS prices out.
- Cut billing disputes and days-sales-outstanding — collections stop being conversations.
- A third-party stamp that shortens enterprise procurement.
For operators
Stop paying on the vendor's word
- An independent count of what every robot actually did.
- Pay for outcomes, not idle machines — per pick, per pallet, per square foot.
- Dispute evidence in one click, not one phone call.
- The first true, verified ROI picture of your automation.
Units Cadence makes billable
- $0.05 / verified pick
- $0.95 / pallet move
- $48 / trailer unloaded
- $36 / acre mowed
- $0.04 / sq ft cleaned
- $0.02 / location scanned
If a machine can do it, Cadence can meter it, verify it, and settle it.
04 — Neutrality
Built to be nobody's side
Verification only works if the referee has no skin in the game. Neutrality isn't our policy — it's the product.
-
Read-only, always
Our connectors can see your systems. They can never touch them. No write access exists in the product.
-
Identical evidence
Vendor and operator see the same matched events, the same flags, the same records. There is no privileged view.
-
Built to SOC 2 standards
Security and audit controls designed to SOC 2 standards from day one — encryption in transit and at rest, full access logging.
-
Never a party to the deal
Cadence is never the vendor and never the buyer. We are the referee — and we only get paid to count correctly.
05 — Design partners
We're onboarding 10 design partners for 2026.
Design partners get Cadence Verify free for 12 months, a dedicated integration engineer, and first access to Settle. In exchange: two hours a month and a read-only data feed. That's it.
Run robots and want verified invoices?
06 — FAQ
Questions we get
Do you replace my billing system?
No. Cadence Verify produces the verified number; your existing invoicing and ERP keep sending the invoice. Settlement through Cadence is optional and comes later, once both sides want it.
What integrations exist?
Robot fleet APIs on one side, and the major WMS platforms on the other — Manhattan, Blue Yonder, SAP EWM, and NetSuite — plus job-ticket systems for field robotics. New connectors are prioritized by design-partner demand.
Is my data shared with the other party?
Only matched and flagged billing events, with their evidence. Raw operational data — routes, inventory, telemetry beyond the billable event — never crosses to the other side.
What does it cost after the design-partner year?
A flat per-robot-per-year verification fee, priced around ~1% of contract value. Never a percentage of your revenue — a referee that profits from the score isn't neutral.
We already trust our vendor / customer. Why bother?
Great — keep that relationship. Verification makes the trust portable: to procurement teams who don't know your vendor, to new customers who don't know you, and to lenders who need numbers, not vibes.
