About Kantiv
Kantiv is an AI-powered pursuit intelligence platform built specifically for the architecture, engineering and construction sector. We solve the high-stress proposal scramble by turning scattered firm data into an active knowledge layer that helps teams win more competitive contracts.
Founded in 2022 and rebranded as Kantiv in 2026, the company was born out of direct industry experience. Our founder came up as a field engineer on major building projects and saw firsthand how millions of dollars in institutional knowledge walk out the door when senior professionals retire or teams struggle to find past proposal content.
The architecture, engineering, and construction vertical is notoriously traditional and highly sceptical of generic technology. Standard artificial intelligence platforms fail on the rigid, complex requirements of multi-million dollar federal and private proposals. We overcame this skepticism by building an industry-native solution that speaks the language of builders, ensuring high data trust and preventing the factual errors common in generic software.
Our impact on the United States infrastructure and construction landscape is already substantial. Today, Kantiv supports more than 200 active industry teams and has helped power over 2.4 billion dollars in competitive proposals. One in five of the top fifty design firms in the United States now relies on our platform to power their pursuits. Our users experience a thirty to forty percent reduction in first-draft compilation times, freeing up teams to focus on high-level strategy rather than administrative manual tasks.
What sets us apart is our deep vertical domain expertise, combining decades of direct industry experience with advanced proprietary database architecture. As we look ahead, Kantiv is launching agentic workflow features this fall to further automate complex proposal processes. We are committed to helping United States design and construction firms safeguard their institutional memory, scale their operations, and transform their business development teams into high-yield growth drivers.
