About the Company
Candid compresses months of pre-construction engineering into hours. They help leading EPCs and owner-operators accelerate FEED, bidding, detailed engineering, and procurement – saving up to 50% of engineering time and unlocking 2x more revenue per project.
Candid is based in San Francisco, recently raised $6+ million (backed by Schneider Electric, Yann LeCun – Chief AI Scientist at Meta, and others) and is founded by CMU and MIT engineers
About the Solution
Candid is a secure, enterprise-ready agentic AI system that creates structure out of all project documents (i.e., diagrams, spec sheets, PDFs, etc.) and then performs end-to-end tasks (from creating MTOs to running bid evaluations and more), cites references for every action, and can be personalized to specific IT environments.
