About Verve Motion
Verve Motion develops SafeLift, a powered soft exosuit for workers performing repetitive lifting in logistics and industrial operations. The wearable system senses movement and applies assistance through the hips and lower back, reducing physical load while allowing users to walk, bend and handle goods naturally.
Fleet software records usage and ergonomic information so managers can understand workload and programme adoption. Verve provides fitting, deployment and support around site operations rather than selling an isolated garment. A 2026 partnership with International Airlines Group plans trials in aviation ground handling, and the Harvard spinout has raised more than US$55 million.
