What started as a vision to fix the fragmented and outdated infrastructure of the energy grid has grown into Texture, the operating system for energy networks. Founded in 2023 by Sanjiv Sanghavi, Victor Quinn, and Nicholas Alan Brown, Texture emerged from the realization that while distributed energy resources like solar panels, batteries, and EVs were proliferating, the digital infrastructure to coordinate them was stuck in the past. The founders, bringing experience from companies like Arcadia and ClassPass, set out to build a solution that would bridge the gap between physical energy assets and modern software capabilities.
Today, Texture is an AI-native platform that serves as the central nervous system for energy operations. By standardizing data into shared models and applying continuous logic, the platform enables real-time coordination across assets, teams, and partners without the need for custom wiring. Texture's technology empowers energy companies to move faster, automating workflows from enrollment to dispatch, and ensuring that the grid can handle the complexities of a renewable future. With a distributed team and a headquarters in New York, Texture is redefining how the world manages energy data, turning a patchwork of closed systems into a unified, intelligent network.
