About CADDi
同社は2017年創業の製造業DXスタートアップで、部品調達プラットフォーム『CADDi Manufacturing』と図面データ活用クラウド『CADDi Drawer』]を軸に、分断されたモノづくりデータを統合する「製造業のデータ基盤」を構築しています。製造業は世界GDPの約16%(日本でも約180兆円)を占める巨大産業である一方、図面や調達データがアナログ・属人的に管理されている構造課題が根強く残っています。同社は独自の画像解析AIにより過去の図面データを自動で解析・構造化し、類似図面検索や発注実績の即時活用を可能にすることで、設計・調達業務の生産性を大幅に向上させています。2023年にはシリーズCで118億円(累計約217億円)を調達し、日本・米国・アジアへとグローバル展開を加速。数百万枚規模の図面データを教師データとして蓄積している点が強力な参入障壁となっており、「モノづくりのGoogle」とも言える製造業の検索・活用インフラを目指す、日本発のユニコーン級産業スタートアップです。
