§Winston Score History

The full picture

Veritone is a software company that builds artificial intelligence tools for businesses and government agencies. Its main product is the aiWARE platform, which uses AI to process and analyze large amounts of audio, video, and text data. Customers include media companies, broadcasters, law enforcement agencies, and federal government clients who need to search and manage large libraries of content.

Veritone earns money through software subscriptions, licensing fees, and services contracts. It also runs a talent and media licensing business that connects brands with celebrities and athletes for advertising. The company operates mainly in the United States and had a market cap of roughly $100 million as of mid-2026, reflecting years of heavy losses — its operating margin was deeply negative. The biggest risk Veritone faces is burning through cash before it can scale its AI platform enough to reach profitability, especially as larger, better-funded competitors crowd the enterprise AI market.

Growth Profile

When traditional metrics don't capture the full picture, these are the signals growth stock investors use instead.

Quarterly reporting periods ended:

30 Jun 2025: $-0.54

R&D Spend

↓ Declining (-22% vs prior year)

22.6% of revenue

1.5x the sector average (15%)

Cash Runway

Quarterly Free Cash Flow

↓ Burn rate worsening

Short runway — potential dilution ahead through share issuance

Cash watch

Veritone has less than a year of cash at its current burn rate. Growth investors should watch for potential share dilution from future fundraising — that directly reduces your ownership.
