Hursh Shah

Hursh Shah is Co-Founder of Edviro, an agentic energy management platform purpose-built for school districts, backed by Y Combinator and Reach Capital.
Hursh studied at UC Santa Barbara, where he also co-founded ucsb.network, a curated community connecting UCSB founders, builders, and engineers with investors and operators.
Driven by frustration at seeing hometown high schools lose taxpayer money to energy inefficiencies and overbilling, Hursh channeled his expertise in energy systems and data analytics into building a real solution.
Edviro secured backing from both Y Combinator and Reach Capital after a competitive and unconventional acceptance process, validating its agentic approach to school district energy management.
Edviro's pilot with local school districts uncovered hundreds of thousands in overbilling and inefficiency, with the platform now tracking over $400K in verified savings across campuses.
