An AI transformation company that embeds with critical industries to automate their most complex workflows.

Why we invested

Utilities, large commercial real estate operators, and other asset-heavy industries run on an enormous volume of manual, document-heavy processes—regulatory filings, compliance reporting, energy audits, and operational workflows. These tasks require specialized domain knowledge, consume thousands of person-hours, and create bottlenecks that slow down everything from grid upgrades to building retrofits. AZX builds bespoke AI agents purpose-built for these workflows, but their model goes deeper than just selling software: they embed with customers as a transformation partner, working side-by-side to identify high-value automation opportunities and deploy agents that actually stick.

Aaron, Rich, and Michael bring a rare combination: deep expertise serving utilities and commercial customers from their EnergySavvy days (acquired by Uplight), proven ability to build enterprise-grade products at scale from Meetingflow, and a clear-eyed understanding of how large organizations actually adopt new technology. They're not selling a generic AI tool—they're building a transformation company that earns trust by delivering measurable results. Early enterprise customers are already seeing dramatic productivity gains, and AZX is positioned to become the go-to partner for AI-driven operational transformation in utilities and commercial industries.

Why this work matters

The energy transition and commercial decarbonization aren't just constrained by capital or technology—they're constrained by human bandwidth. Utilities need to process thousands of interconnection requests; building owners need to navigate complex retrofit programs; asset managers need to compile regulatory filings across sprawling portfolios. AZX's embedded approach means these organizations don't just get software—they get a partner who understands their operations deeply enough to deploy AI that transforms how work gets done. Compressing weeks of manual work into hours frees up the specialized workforce we need to focus on higher-value decisions and accelerates the pace of infrastructure modernization.
