About Beeldi

Beeldi, founded in 2018 by Kévin Le Port and Thomas Feltrin, offers a data management platform for the real estate sector. The founders, with prior experience in energy management and digital tools at Engie, identified a critical need among property managers for precise data on building equipment to meet carbon reduction and regulatory compliance goals. Le Port's background as an energy efficiency engineer at ENGIE Cofely involved deploying Energy Performance Contracts, a foundation that directly informs Beeldi's mission.

The company operates in the property technology (PropTech) market, serving real estate asset managers, facility managers, property owners, and auditors. Its business model centers on its 'Equipment Data Platform,' a centralized system that digitizes and standardizes building data. This platform helps clients manage regulatory compliance, create multi-year investment plans, and track maintenance. Beeldi targets the challenge of heterogeneous and difficult-to-exploit data from technical audits, providing clients with a comprehensive and current view of their real estate portfolios.

The core service is a web and mobile application that facilitates technical building audits. A key feature is its AI-powered technology, such as 'Miro AI,' which uses image analysis to automatically recognize and catalog equipment details from nameplate photos, saving auditors significant time. Another component, 'Reglo AI,' scans documents to extract and categorize information, simplifying regulatory tracking. The platform also includes 'Connect,' which integrates with the tools of various service providers like maintenance companies and control agencies, ensuring seamless data flow. This allows for better decision-making regarding energy efficiency upgrades and ESG-focused maintenance plans. The service is designed to help property managers address regulations like the French 'Décret Tertiaire,' which mandates substantial energy consumption reductions.

Since its inception, Beeldi has secured significant funding to fuel its growth. The company raised €1.3 million in a 2019/2020 seed round from investors including Starquest Capital and Kima Ventures. This was followed by a Series A round in November 2022, securing €8 million from MAIF Avenir, Citizen Capital, and existing investor Starquest Capital. The firm has expanded its data centralization to cover nearly 100 million square meters in France and plans to expand into other European markets, such as Germany, facing similar regulatory challenges.
