Kantiv

Kantiv (operating at kantiv.com) is a pursuit intelligence platform engineered for Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) firms to systematically capture, organize, and leverage institutional knowledge for business development. Founded in 2022 as Joist AI and headquartered in San Diego, CA, Kantiv addresses a critical gap in the AEC industry by consolidating fragmented data—such as past proposals, project insights, and client relationships—into a unified intelligence hub. Under the hood, the platform combines AI-driven content curation with structured workflows, enabling teams to surface verified firm knowledge at scale. This empowers AEC marketing and business development teams to identify high-value opportunities, tailor proposals with precision, and accelerate deal closures. The rebrand from Joist AI to Kantiv reflects a strategic evolution, drawing on decades of industry expertise to deliver a more cohesive solution for firms pursuing their most transformative projects.
