- CleanDesign
Led · Equity · Apr 2026
CleanDesign develops and deploys Hybrid Energy Management Systems (hEMS) that layer intelligent, hardware-agnostic software and AI on top of existing diesel-based power infrastructure and battery storage. Its hEMS platform collects 60,000 data points per second per unit to dynamically optimize power usage, reduce fuel consumption, extend equipment life, and lower emissions. Customers include drilling service providers and remote mining operations, with deployments in regions such as Mexico and Nunavut in Canada’s Arctic Circle. The company reports diesel consumption reductions of approximately 10–15% in some remote sites and up to 20% emissions reductions in field deployments, and highlights substantial cost savings where diesel is expensive. CleanDesign plans to scale deployments across North America, expand into additional mining and remote energy applications, and continue product development, including a newer Highline system designed to enable industrial connections to grid power while optimizing usage through software. After the $20 million growth investment led by Edison Partners, two Edison principals joined CleanDesign’s board to support commercialization and scaling efforts.

Led · Equity · Feb 2026
Payra offers ERP-native software that lets construction material suppliers, concrete producers, lumber yards, HVAC distributors and other blue-collar businesses accept ACH, card and other digital payments directly within their existing accounting systems. Its platform embeds into legacy ERPs such as Trimble Viewpoint, Foundation, Sage and Netsuite, automating cash application, reconciliation and invoice matching without requiring a costly rip-and-replace. Customers report 20% reductions in days sales outstanding and a 75% decrease in past-due invoices, along with significant accounting time savings. Within 15 months of launch, the company has grown to a revenue run rate exceeding $10 million, driven by demand from family-owned and regional businesses across the U.S. heartland. Payra estimates its core market of construction suppliers represents a $200 billion segment that remains largely underserved by modern fintech. The firm positions its AI-enabled, ERP-native approach as a key differentiator in the crowded AR automation market. New capital will be directed toward expanding product capabilities, deepening ERP integrations and scaling go-to-market efforts across construction and industrial verticals.
