GridPilot AI (ALL18)

GridPilot builds AI for power engineering and grid connection. We turn project data into engineering drawings and submission-ready application packages in 24 hours, helping developers and engineering teams advance generation, energy storage, and data center projects. Our platform prepares project-specific single-line and three-line diagrams, protection and control schematics, substation layouts, and grounding plans. It tracks changes to utility, ISO/RTO, and regulatory requirements, checks forms and technical documents for missing information or inconsistencies, and brings engineering deliverables and supporting documents into a coordinated interconnection application package. As the first product from Faradon, GridPilot is part of our broader ambition to build AGI for power engineering. We help engineers spend less time on repetitive drafting and documentation, and more time on design, analysis, and technical decisions.
