Our take
CADDi provides solutions to streamline procurement in the manufacturing industry, delivering an ordering and supply platform, as well as an AI-enabled drawings search system. The search system is particularly interesting because, according to the company, drawings data is the "most important data" in manufacturing.
Through CADDi, manufacturers can procure materials such as sheet metal and machining from an array of partners. By collecting these options in one place, the platform saves users time and effort because they don't have to conduct a search themselves. Similarly, CADDI's drawing search means users can source say, a complex machine part, from just a drawing - without needing to know any further details.
Having already established a strong presence in Japan, CADDi has begun international expansion efforts, beginning with a US division. It is well-funded, and is investing in growing its team and its network of suppliers, as well as further enhancing the technological capabilities its drawings search feature.
