No. 4 to the Registration Statement on Form S-4

File No. 333-282600
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This letter is submitted in response to the
comments of the staff (the “Staff”) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“Commission”) as set forth in the Staff’s comment letter dated January 7, 2025 (the “Comment
Letter”), in respect of CID Holdco, Inc and SEE ID, Inc.’s (together, “we”,
“us”, “our” or the “Registrant”) Amendment No. 4 to the Registration
Statement on Form S-4, filed with the Commission on January 7, 2025 (the “Registration Statement”).
The responses to the Comment Letter are set forth
below, with each paragraph numbered to correspond to the comment number set forth in the Comment Letter. For your convenience, the comments
have been reproduced below, together with our responses.
In addition, the Registrant has revised the Registration
Statement in response to the Staff’s comments and is filing an amendment to the Registration Statement (the “Amendment”)

Response: The Registrant respectfully acknowledges
the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on page 13 of the Amendment.

2.
Staff’s comment: We note your response to prior comments 4 and 5 in which you indicate that adjustment S has been removed from the Temporary Equity section.
However, adjustment S remains in all scenarios in the Temporary Equity section of the pro forma balance sheet. It is also unclear why
you add cash to the cash held in trust account line-item referencing adjustment S and why the amounts of adjustments S to additional paid-in
capital declines under each scenario. In addition, adjustments D1, D2, D3, and D4 do not balance. Revise your pro forma balance sheet
to ensure the adjustment debits and credits net to zero, and the sum of the adjustments equals the line-item totals under each scenario.
Response: The Registrant respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and respectfully advises the Staff that the pro forma balance sheet was incorrect
due to a clerical error and have corrected the pro forma balance sheet to remove the adjustment ’S’ debit from the Temporary Equity and
removed the cash to the cash held in trust account line-item referencing adjustment S.
We have also corrected the adjustments ’S’ to additional
paid-in capital so that it is constant under each scenario so the readers can see the actual known redemptions of class A common stock
subject to redemption in all scenarios.
We’ve changed the reference in the class A common stock subject to possible redemption from ‘D0’
in each scenario to D1, D2, D3, D4 and D5, in the respective scenarios. Adjustments D1, D2, D3, D4 and D5 now balance. The total of D1,
D2, D3, D4 and D5 net to zero under each scenario. We have ensured that the sum of the adjustments equals the line-item totals under each
scenario.

This letter is submitted in response to the comments
of the staff (the “Staff”) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) as
set forth in the Staff’s comment letter dated January 2, 2025 (the “Comment Letter”), in respect of CID Holdco,

The responses to the Comment Letter are set forth

Staff’s comment: Please explain pro forma
adjustment S to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2024.
Response: The Registrant
respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the pro forma balance sheet on pages 142 and 143 of the Amendment. The Registrant respectfully advises the Staff that we removed the adjustment ’S’ debit from the Temporary Equity section in all scenarios.
Adjustment ’S’ is included in Cash and Additional Paid-in Capital to show the impact on cash of $3,849,885 of actual redemptions which
took place on November 19, 2024.
5.
Staff’s comment: Please revise your balance
sheet adjustments so that they balance, i.e. the credits and debits net to zero. In this regard, it is unclear why adjustment D1 to
temporary equity appears under all of the scenarios. It is also unclear why the amount of adjustment D1 was not reduced to reflect
the post-balance sheet redemption.
Response: The Registrant respectfully acknowledges
the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on pages 142 and 143 of the Amendment. The Registrant respectfully advises the Staff that in the revised pro forma balance sheet, adjustment ’S’ has been removed from the Temporary
Equity section which was the cause of the imbalance. In all scenarios, adjustment ‘D1’, the Class A common stock subject to possible redemption,
in the Temporary Equity section will no longer exist. The Temporary Equity section must be considered in conjunction with D1-D5 in the
Cash and Additional paid-in capital sections where the conversion of such temporary equity into Additional paid-in capital or reduction
of cash is reflected.

the increase. As part of your detailed description explain how much of the increase is attributable to new issuances and how much is
attributable to the revaluation of the SAFE agreements and discuss the significant factors impacting the increase in estimated fair
value.

Response: The Registrant respectfully acknowledges

2.We note your response to prior comments 4 and 5 in which you indicate that
adjustment S has been removed from the Temporary Equity section. However,
adjustment S remains in all scenarios in the Temporary Equity section of the pro
forma balance sheet. It is also unclear why you add cash to the cash held in trust
account line-item referencing adjustment S and why the amounts of adjustments S to
additional paid-in capital declines under each scenario. In addition, adjustments D1,
D2, D3, and D4 do not balance. Revise your pro forma balance sheet to ensure the
adjustment debits and credits net to zero, and the sum of the adjustments equals the
line-item totals under each scenario.

Response: The Registrant respectfully acknowledges
the Staff’s comment and respectfully advises the Staff that the change in exercise price for Vijayan Nambiar issued on 5/7/2022
was included in our stock comp cumulative catch-up adjustment recorded on 1/1/24. Management considered guidance of ASC 718-20-35-3 through
ASC 718-20-35-4 which requires awards with service conditions otherwise probable of vesting, to have modification accounting. However,
the incremental compensation cost was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and was determined to be immaterial. This
amount has been included in the $63,082 catch-up recorded on 1/1/24.

fully-diluted shares of 152,909,123 which results in an $0.85 per share value established for common stock in the Business Combination
agreement.
Prior to signing the Business Combination Agreement on March
18, 2024, we completed a 409A valuation utilizing Carta Valuations LLC on March 14, 2024 to take into account the terms of the Business
Combination Agreement which reflected a discount from the full BCA value to account for the possibility that the transaction doesn’t
close to arrive at $0.70 per share of common stock. We used this data point in our Black-Scholes option pricing model to obtain a Call
Option Fair Value of $0.51 which will be applied to stock options issued in 2024. As of June 30, 2024 there were no additional stock options
issued.

Staff’s comment: We note in your response to prior
comments 33 and 35 you concluded the errors were
not quantitatively material. Noting that the errors had the effect
of under reporting management compensation, with respect to each error please provide us a comprehensive materiality analysis prepared
using the guidance is SAB Topic 1:M.1
Response: The Registrant respectfully acknowledges
the Staff’s comment and respectfully refers the Staff to the below analysis.
1 NTD: SEE ID to confirm the response and nothing from the memo
should remain confidential.

Error 1 – Omitted stock option awards
The discrepancy occurred due to using incomplete
information relating to stock options granted when preparing our financial statements with only the information available in our capital
management software. Additional records prepared and maintained by our legal staff were subsequently discovered during an internal audit
of the original grants and board records.
Management has implemented the following controls
to mitigate the risk that future stock options may be incomplete and incorrectly recorded and valued:
a. All option issuances are reviewed and approved by the appropriate
and authorized individual.
b. The outstanding share control log is updated.
c. Valuation is independently reviewed and approved prior to
entry into the system.
d. Updates to shareholder records are reviewed and approved by
appropriate and authorized individuals prior to posting to the general ledger.
e. The number of shares issued is reconciled to share register
maintained by the Stock Transfer Agent.
Error 2 – Omitted Restricted Stock Awards
and fair value differences
Restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) totaling
16,537,500 shares of common stock were incorrectly accounted for due to the use of incorrect fair values of the Company’s common
stock on the date of grant and the following additional RSA’s identified after the issuance of the financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 2023:
● Robert Novotny (200,000 shares),
● Craig Slayter (100,000 shares),
● Douglas Distaso (100,000 shares), and
● Jerry Martinez (200,000 shares),
Additionally, the grant date for the 15,937,500
RSAs issued to Charlie Maddox was changed from the previously used grant date of December 8, 2020 to the correct grant date of January
4, 2021.
The fair value of the Company’s common stock
at the time the RSAs were granted were updated to reflect corrected valuations of the Company’s common stock value on the date of
RSA grants, which had a significant impact on the resulting stock-based compensation expense.

to amend the Existing SUAC Charter to extend the date by which the Business Combination may be consummated. Please disclose whether shareholders
may redeem their shares in connection with any proposal to extend the time period to complete a business combination. Refer to 1604(b)(6)

of the compensation received or to be received by the SPAC sponsor, its affiliates, and promoters in connection with the de-SPAC transaction
or any related financing transaction, the amount of securities issued or to be issued by the SPAC to the SPAC sponsor, its affiliates,
and promoters and the price paid or to be paid for such securities in connection with the de-SPAC transaction or any related financing

Selected Historical Consolidated
Financial Information of SEE ID, page 14
9. Staff’s comment: Please add cash flow information for SEE ID Inc. for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Response: The Registrant
respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on page 15 of the Amendment.
“While we intend to seek stockholder approval of the Business
Combination, SUAC’s Sponsor has agreed to vote in favor...”, page 17
10. Staff’s comment: We note your risk factor indicating that as of the record date, the Sponsor owned 11,800,000
shares of SUAC Common Stock, representing approximately 93.21% of the issued and outstanding SUAC Common Stock. We also note that following
the post business combination the Sponsor will own 93.21% of CID Holdco. Please tell us whether you will be deemed to be a “controlled
company” under the Nasdaq listing rules. If so, please additionally disclose on the prospectus cover, the summary and elsewhere
(i) the percent voting power that the controlling stockholder will hold after completion of the offering; (ii) the corporate governance
exemptions that will be available to you; and (iii) whether you intend to take advantage of these exemptions.
Response: The Registrant respectfully acknowledges
the Staff’s comment and respectfully advises the Staff that while the Sponsor currently owns 93.21% of the issued and outstanding
common stock of SUAC, the Sponsor is expected to own less than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Registrant immediately after the completion
of the Business Combination. Accordingly, the Registrant will not be a “controlled company” under the applicable Nasdaq listing
rules and does not intend to take advantage of the controlled company exemptions under the Nasdaq rules.

Risk Factors
We may be unable to obtain additional financing to complete our
initial Business Combination or to fund the operations..., page 17
11. Staff’s comment: We note the closing condition that SUAC or Holdings, as applicable, must close simultaneously
with the closing a line of credit on customary terms of no less than $50,000,000 and no greater than $100,000,000. Please expand your
risk factor to disclose, if true, that if the SPAC is unable to consummate the transaction financing and/or equity line of credit, the
SPAC may lack funds to consummate the business combination and the Business Combination may not occur.
Response: The Registrant
respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on page 21 of the Amendment.
Our dependence on a limited number of joint design manufacturers
and suppliers of manufacturing services..., page 51
12. Staff’s comment: You state that you have in the past experienced component shortages. Please discuss whether the
component shortages had a material impact on the company. In addition, discuss the material terms of your agreements with your suppliers
and manufacturers, including the “key supplier in Israel” and the “single joint design manufacturer.”
Response: The Registrant
respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and respectfully advises the Staff that while SEE ID has not experienced component
shortages to date, given that SEE ID is not manufacturing directly or indirectly at scale yet, component shortages are always a risk in
manufacturing electronics. The long lead times SEE ID has experienced from suppliers for off-the-shelf hardware to date were a significant
factor in making the decision to move towards manufacturing its own hardware. However, SEE ID could experience component shortages in
the future.
SEE ID’s DotCloud software, which
includes its AI engine and the material workflows its customers rely on, gathers data through 6 fundamental technologies:
1) Manual operator entry
2) Barcode Scanning
3) Traditional Passive RFID
4
4) Visions Systems
5) Active (powered) RF Beacons and Sensors
6) Next Generation Passive RF data collection
Only one of those data sources, Next Generation
Passive RF, relies on a key, sole source supplier in Israel. SEE ID believes this supplier is the best global source for chips that harvest
RF energy and beacons. While SEE ID can buy inlays that incorporate this chip from four different suppliers, SEE ID understands that these
suppliers’ source from the same single source in Israel. In the event that SEE ID’s supply of this chip is interrupted, SEE
ID’s solutions will still be able to rely on the 5 other methods of data collection, which would allow us to continue our services.
SEE ID has no supply agreement and conducts
procurement by purchase order as needed. Accordingly, the Registrant has revised the disclosure on page 52 of the Amendment to remove
the reference to a single joint design manufacturer.
Management of Holdings Following
the Business Combination, page 85
13. Staff’s comment: Please disclose the business experience of Holly Grey and Dr. David Carlson who are identified
as directors after the business combination. See Item 401 of Regulation S-K.
Response: The Registrant
respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on page 195 of the Amendment.
The Business Combination Agreement,
page 96
14. Staff’s comment: We note your disclosure indicating that on November 27, 2023, SUAC and SEE ID executed a letter
of intent (LOI). Please file the LOI and any amendments as exhibits pursuant to Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K or tell us why you do
not believe you are required to file this agreement.
Response: The Registrant
respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and respectfully advises the Staff that the LOI does not fall within the definition
of a material contract because the LOI is not a contract. As in the case of any non-binding letter of intent, at the time such letter
was executed by SUAC and SEE ID there was no definitive agreement, plan, arrangement, commitment or understanding, conditional or otherwise,
regarding any merger or business combination transaction between the parties. In addition, the non-binding letter of intent was superseded
by the Business Combination Agreement. As such, the non-binding letter of intent is not a material contract within the meaning of Item
601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K. The Registrant has also revised the disclosure on page 113 of the Amendment to clarify that the LOI was
superseded by the Business Combination Agreement.

Balance Sheet, page 141
16. Staff’s comment: It is unclear why you describe in footnote D2 that scenario 2 assumes a 50% redemption while
you present adjustments referenced to D2 to additional paid-in capital, temporary equity, and common stock under the Scenario 2 column,
which assumes a maximum redemption.
Response: The Registrant
respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on page 143 of the Amendment.
17. Staff’s comment: Correct the footnote references to cash adjustments J and I under Scenario 2.
Response: The Registrant
respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on page 142 of the Amendment.
18. Staff’s comment: Note L to your Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet indicates waiver of the full
deferred underwriting fees of $11,200,000, however there is no disclosure related to a fee waiver arrangement. Please fully disclose the
details of the fee waiver arrangement in your business combination discussion and throughout the filing, as appropriate.
Response: The Registrant
respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on pages 111 and 163 of the Amendment.
19. Staff’s comment: Disclose a single total pro forma amount in the line-item for Class A common stock, in the balance
sheet columns under the two redemption scenarios.
Response: The Registrant
respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on page 143 of the Amendment.
