About Applied Kinetics
Summary
Applied Kinetics builds AI agents for energy and data center construction teams, handling the coordination work that keeps long-lead equipment orders on track. The agents chase suppliers, reconcile engineering changes, and monitor delivery milestones by connecting directly to ERP systems, email, spreadsheets, and document stores, replacing the manual follow-up that project teams currently do across inboxes and spreadsheets. Results and exceptions surface in Microsoft Teams or Slack, where the team already works.
Go-to-market
Project and procurement teams at companies in the energy and data center buildout sector are the buyers. Each deployment is customized to the customer's existing workflows and systems, suggesting a sales-led, professional-services-style onboarding rather than self-serve.
