FinTech of the day: Orion

Post date :

Dec 4, 2025

Turning Twitter feeds and weather data into safety alerts.

US-based Orion secured $3.5M in seed funding from Dynamo Ventures, Bravo Victor VC, and others to scale its AI‑powered risk intelligence platform.

Orion ingests social media posts, news, geospatial feeds, and weather data to forecast threats and disruptions. Its STAN framework produces real‑time risk scores and recommended actions.

Early customers include Fortune 500 logistics companies and public‑sector agencies that previously paid $100K per asset for legacy tools.

Orion charges about $1K per monitored asset, making risk intelligence accessible.

Revenue comes from a SaaS subscription per asset. The moat is proprietary data fusion and domain expertise from founder Rahul Thayil, a former disaster‑relief officer.

With the funding, Orion plans to expand into supply‑chain finance, insurance underwriting, and corporate security.
