Esper provides enterprise-scale device management for cross-platform edge fleets, handling millions of device interactions daily across Android, iOS, Linux, and Windows environments. The platform applies DevOps principles to the traditionally manual domain of device fleet management, enabling organisations to deploy, control, and automate purpose-built devices - kiosks, POS systems, digital signage, and tablets - at scale without the friction of repeated re-provisioning.
The company serves enterprises across retail, hospitality, logistics, healthcare, education, and field services. Its approach centres on proactive, automated management with exception-based handling that reduces operational overhead and accelerates time-to-deployment for device-dependent operations. By treating device fleets as infrastructure amenable to automation and systematic control, Esper addresses the operational complexity that has historically constrained the speed and reliability of edge deployments.
Founded in 2018 by Yadhu Gopalan and Shiv Sundar, both of whom built infrastructure for Amazon's most demanding systems - including Amazon Go, Fire TV, Kindle, and Alexa - the company brings deep experience in managing large-scale, mission-critical device ecosystems. This background informs Esper's focus on the intersection of device management and business outcomes, positioning the platform as a tool for growth-oriented organisations managing complex, geographically distributed fleets.
