About

AI computer vision startup Nexar laid off 17 employees on September 4, 2023, representing 14% of its 120-person workforce. This marks the company's third round of layoffs in ten months, following cuts in November 2022 and July 2023, cumulatively reducing headcount by over 30%. Nexar, which provides AI-powered visual data and digital twins of road networks, had raised a $53 million Series D in late 2021. The layoffs reflect broader challenges in the tech sector, as the company adjusts its operations amid market pressures.
