Geography

The company is headquartered in the United States and its reported customer mix is organized by end market rather than by country. Based on the disclosed customer groups, its business is primarily tied to U.S. commercial enterprise and public sector demand, with operations and sales exposure concentrated in those domestic markets.

Risks

Veritone depends on continued customer adoption of its AI platform and related software, so product relevance and technology execution are central risks.
