Atlanta, Georgia, September 29th / PRNewswire / -- Kahua ® Today, it is announced that Bain Capital's Tech Opportunities has made a minority equity growth investment in Kahua, with a valuation of over $1 billion. Kahua is a AI enterprise construction platform focused on complex capital projects. This collaboration will support the next phase of growth for Kahua, including continued investment in AI and product innovation, as well as market expansion, customer success, and talent development initiatives.

Kahua, co-founder and CEO, Scott Unger, stated: "It has taken us many years to build Kahua into the system that organizations rely on for running their most complex projects, and this investment validates our efforts. Reaching an annual revenue of 100 million dollars is a milestone that we are very proud of; it reflects the trust our customers have in us as well as the strength of our team. We are delighted to collaborate with Bain Capital, who understand how to help innovative software companies scale. Together, we will accelerate the capabilities and product innovation of AI, deepen the value we create for our customers, and invest in the talent needed for the sustained growth of Kahua."

In highly regulated and mission-critical environments such as the federal government, defense, transportation, healthcare, and education, capital projects are becoming increasingly large and complex. At the same time, investments in areas such as energy, digital infrastructure, data centers, and other large-scale assets are also accelerating. However, many organizations are still managing these multi-year projects within fragmented systems and disconnected processes. Kahua is designed to address this complexity by connecting the people, processes, and data behind capital projects into a configurable and governed platform.

Kahua currently serves over 2,500 clients across multiple industries and supports capital projects worth over $400 billion on its platform. As an interconnected record-keeping system, Kahua provides governed data and context, enabling AI to play a role in the workflow of client planning, management, and decision-making throughout the asset lifecycle.

Bain Capital Tech Opportunities Partner Philip Meicler stated: “Kahua has built a technical backbone for the owners and delivery teams, connecting key data throughout the entire asset lifecycle from financing and planning to construction and long-term operations. The differentiated AI platform, along with its leading position in this field, makes it an indispensable partner for large capital project owners and managers. We look forward to collaborating with the Scott and Kahua teams and bringing our experience in scaling technology companies as the company expands into more markets.”
