  • PADO AI Orchestration

    Led · Seed · Mar 2026

    PADO AI Orchestration provides an AI- and ML-driven energy orchestration platform that coordinates power, compute, cooling infrastructure, and distributed energy resources across white space and gray space in data centers. Its core features include real-time AI/ML analysis to maximize compute throughput via dynamic job scheduling and improved job packing, zonal control to increase density by placing workloads where thermal headroom exists, and BESS optimization to trigger energy storage during high-price events. The platform also offers automated carbon credit reporting and grid stability metrics to support compliance and corporate sustainability initiatives. PADO intends to use its Seed proceeds to advance product delivery and expand into global markets, with a focus on mid-market colocation data centers. The company is led by CEO and Co-Founder Wannie Park and is headquartered in Malibu, California. The article does not provide revenue, user, or other financial metrics.
