Kahua, an AI enterprise construction platform for complex capital programs, said on September 29, 2026 that it had received a minority growth investment from Bain Capital's Tech Opportunities at a valuation above $1 billion. The Alpharetta, Georgia-based company said the deal follows its reaching $100 million in annualized revenue.
What was announced
Kahua said the partnership will support its next phase of growth, including continued investment in AI and product innovation as well as go-to-market, customer success, and talent development initiatives.
The company did not disclose the size of the investment beyond describing it as a minority growth investment made at a valuation above $1 billion.
What Kahua says it does
According to the company, Kahua connects the people, processes and data behind a capital program in one configurable, governed platform, serving as a system of record for owners and delivery teams across the full asset lifecycle.
Kahua said it serves more than 2,500 customers across a diverse range of industries and supports more than $400 billion in capital programs on its platform. The company said that as a connected system of record, it provides the governed data and context needed to make AI useful within the workflows where customers plan, manage, and make decisions.
Kahua said capital programs in highly regulated and mission-critical environments, including federal government and defense, transportation, healthcare, and education, are becoming larger and more complex, while investment accelerates across energy, digital infrastructure, data centers and other major asset sectors. Many organizations, it said, still manage these multi-year programs across fragmented systems and disconnected processes.
What the companies say
"We've spent years building Kahua into the system organizations rely on to run their most complex programs, and this investment validates that work," said Scott Unger, CEO and co-founder of Kahua. He added that reaching $100 million in annualized revenue is a milestone of which the company is incredibly proud.
Philip Meicler, Partner at Bain Capital Tech Opportunities, said Kahua "has built the technology backbone for owners and delivery teams, connecting critical data across the full asset lifecycle—from funding and planning through construction and long-term operation." He said the firm looks forward to bringing its experience scaling technology businesses as the company expands across markets.
Bain Capital said it was founded in 1984, invests across five focus areas — Private Equity, Growth & Venture, Capital Solutions, Credit, and Real Assets — and has 24 offices on four continents and approximately $225 billion in assets under management.
