The Story

A trillion-dollar industry that still buys by phone

Here is a fact about construction that ought to be embarrassing and mostly just gets shrugged at: something like 98% of projects run over on time or over on budget. The usual suspects get blamed - labor, weather, permits, the client who changes their mind about the kitchen. Bundle, an Oakland startup, points at a quieter culprit. Before anyone can pour concrete or hang a cabinet, somebody has to buy the concrete and the cabinet, and in 2026 a startling amount of that buying still happens over email, phone, and PDF quotes stapled together in a shoebox.

The pitch is almost boring, which is the point. Procurement is the part of building that nobody photographs for the portfolio. It is spreadsheets and supplier calls and waiting for a delivery window that may or may not hold. Bundle's wager is that if you make that part fast and legible - one catalog, one dashboard, one place where quotes, orders, and deliveries live - the savings show up everywhere else. The company says it runs purchasing at roughly 10x the usual speed and trims material costs by 10 to 20%. Those are the company's own numbers, and they are the kind that are hard to audit from the outside, but the direction is intuitive: less friction in the buying, less bleed in the budget.

What makes it interesting is who is making the claim. Bundle's two founders did not wander in from generic B2B software. They came out of architecture and design - Delos and SHoP Architects - where they spent their days on the receiving end of exactly this mess, then went to Stanford's business school and decided to fix it. The tagline they landed on is refreshingly literal: built for construction by people from construction.

The Customers

Who is buying with Bundle

Bundle aims squarely at the small-to-midsize end of residential construction - the segment where a single missed delivery genuinely blows up a week, and where nobody has an enterprise procurement department to absorb the chaos. Contractors and ADU builders are the core. Designers use it to turn selections into orders. Field teams use the mobile app to check materials in and out. Property managers use it to keep repeat purchasing sane.

There is a timing story underneath the customer list. Accessory dwelling units - the backyard cottages and garage conversions that cities across California have spent years legalizing - have turned a trickle of small residential projects into a flood. That is a lot of builders doing a lot of repeat purchasing of similar materials, which is more or less the perfect shape for a reusable materials library.

Contractors

The Founders

From the drafting table to the codebase

JC

Janna Colucci

Co-Founder

Came out of the design and construction world before co-founding Bundle in 2021 with her Stanford GSB classmate. Lived the procurement problem firsthand delivering commercial and residential projects.

ED

Edison Ding

Co-Founder

Co-founded Bundle after roles at Delos and SHoP Architects. The AEC background is the whole differentiator - this is software written by people who once waited on the deliveries it now tracks.

The two met at Stanford's Graduate School of Business, but the real credential is the years before it. Delivering commercial and residential projects at firms like Delos and SHoP Architects means they watched procurement fail up close - the wrong finish shipped, the quote that expired, the sub who could not start because the framing lumber was still on a truck somewhere. Bundle is the tool they wished existed.

It is also, by the company's own description, a women- and minority-owned business where more than half the team identifies as people of color - notable in an industry not known for either.

The Money

Who bet on the boring problem

The seed capital is earmarked for the unglamorous work: expanding the technology, growing the team, and pushing go-to-market. No moonshot rhetoric - just more catalog, more suppliers, more builders.
