Continuum Industries
AI-powered platform for sustainable infrastructure development planning
About Continuum Industries
Continuum Industries provides an AI-powered software platform, Optioneer, that accelerates the planning and development of linear infrastructure projects. The company was founded in 2018 in Edinburgh, Scotland, by Grzegorz Marecki, Adam Anyszewski, Emil Hansen, and Matt Blythe. The founders, who met at the University of Edinburgh's Hyperloop team, initially developed an optimization engine for the high-speed transport concept before pivoting to address the more immediate needs of the traditional infrastructure industry.
Read full description
The company's core product, Optioneer, enables clients in the power, utility, and renewables sectors to visualize, analyze, and assess routing options for assets like power lines, cables, and pipelines for hydrogen, water, and CO2. By leveraging AI and integrating thousands of geospatial data sets, the platform automates the analysis of millions of routing alternatives against environmental, social, cost, and technical factors. This process significantly reduces project timelines, condensing tasks that traditionally took 12 months into as little as eight weeks. Clients include major industry names such as National Grid, Iberdrola Group, SSEN Transmission, and National Gas.
The business operates on a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model, generating revenue through platform subscriptions and service contracts. Continuum Industries has raised a total of $15.5 million in funding, including a $10 million Series A round in September 2023 led by Singular, with participation from Credo, Playfair, and Techstart Ventures. This funding is aimed at fueling expansion in Europe and the US, and further developing the platform's functionality.
