What Edviro does

Edviro builds AI that operates energy infrastructure. We connect to meters, HVAC systems, batteries, solar, and other energy equipment and continuously handle the work required to keep them efficient: detecting and diagnosing problems to forecasting demand, simulating fixes, creating work orders, coordinating maintenance, and controlling equipment where authorized. Our energy world models learn how each site behaves, choose the highest-value actions, and verify the results against real operational, meter, and billing data.

AI that operates energy infrastructure

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We build AI that connects directly to energy infrastructure - meters, HVAC, batteries, solar, and more - and actively operates those systems. Edviro's software handles everything from detecting and diagnosing issues to forecasting energy demand, simulating fixes, creating and managing work orders, and controlling equipment where allowed. Our models learn how each site behaves, make optimal decisions for efficiency and cost, and verify results against real operational and billing data.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in San Francisco, CA, and the company will continue to be based there after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is a hub for AI talent and energy innovation, and it's where we built Edviro and found early partners. Staying here puts us close to the industry and the talent we need.
