MeltPlan
MeltPlan is a Berkeley-based AI-native planning engine for the construction industry. It moves critical decisions upstream into preconstruction - automating quantity takeoffs, checking building-code compliance, and leveling bids - so that architects, contractors and owners can stress-test plans before a shovel hits the ground. Founded in 2025 by Kanav Hasija (ex-Innovaccer) and Tanmaya Kala (ex-DPR), the company raised $14M led by Bessemer Venture Partners and is already deployed with DPR Construction and Innovo Group.

Kanav Hasija is Co-Founder and CEO of MeltPlan, an AI-native preconstruction planning platform backed by Bessemer Venture Partners. A serial entrepreneur who co-built Innovaccer into a $3.2B healthcare data unicorn, he now applies the same data-platform playbook to construction — where fragmented planning and late-stage surprises cost billions annually. MeltPlan's tools (Melt Code, Melt Takeoff) bring AI-powered code compliance and quantity estimation to architects, contractors, and owners before the first shovel breaks ground.
