Procore Technologies
A carpenter who got tired of paper blueprints built the software the construction industry now runs on - and priced it so nobody has to pay per seat.
Novade Solutions
Novade Solutions is a Singapore-based construction technology company that builds smart field management software for the building and infrastructure industry. Its mobile-first platform digitizes and automates on-site processes - quality control, safety inspections, site diaries, progress reporting, defect management and equipment maintenance - so contractors, developers and owners can capture what happens in the field and turn it into data managers can act on. Founded in 2014 by former Autodesk executive Denis Branthonne, Novade is used across roughly 25 countries and more than 10,000 sites, serving general contractors, real estate developers, trade contractors, home builders and government departments.
AI Clearing
AI Clearing is an Austin- and Warsaw-based construction technology company that turns drone imagery and site data into automated progress tracking, quality control, and field intelligence for large infrastructure projects. Its AI-native platform ingests drone flights, CAD/BIM designs, schedules, and mobile field data into a single source of truth, delivering analyzed progress reports typically within hours rather than weeks. Serving contractors, asset owners, and lenders on utility-scale solar, energy transmission, roads, railways, and earthworks, the company raised a $14M Series A in 2023 and was the first technology firm in the world to certify its AI management system against ISO 42001.
Boon
Boon builds AI agents that automate the paperwork-heavy back office of physical industries. Founded in 2023 by ex-Samsara product leader Deepti Yenireddy, the San Mateo company first launched a workflow platform for commercial fleets - handling order entry, load sourcing, compliance and fuel optimization - and has since pushed into construction, where its agents run preconstruction workflows from blueprint to bid, including takeoffs, clash detection and bid leveling. Boon raised $20.5M across seed and a $15.5M Series A led by Redpoint Ventures and Marathon in December 2024.
Michael Mazur
Michael Mazur is co-founder and CEO of AI Clearing, an Austin-based platform that ingests drone imagery, BIM designs, schedules and ground data to produce autonomous progress tracking and quality control for large infrastructure builds. A former PwC partner who ran the firm's global Drone Powered Solutions unit, Mazur left in 2020 with co-founder Adam Wisniewski to spin the idea out as an independent company; in October 2023 the company closed a $14M Series A led by Prudence, on the back of 15x revenue growth.
Offsight
Offsight is a San Francisco software company building a project management and production platform for the offsite construction, modular and prefab industry. Its mobile-first software helps factories and specialty contractors track production, quality, materials and labor in real time - replacing the spreadsheets that engineered-to-order manufacturers have long relied on. Founded in 2014 by Vikas Murali and Andrew Xue, the company raised a $2.5M seed round and counts large builders like Performance Contracting Inc., McCarthy Building Companies and Z Modular among its customers.
Primepoint
Primepoint is a San Mateo-based construction intelligence company whose AI reads and understands construction drawings the way an experienced project team does. Founded in 2024 by computer-vision pioneer Lubomir Bourdev and product veteran Hamid Palo, it builds a proprietary knowledge graph that links every drawing element - down to the tag level - to its schedule, specification, and related documents, then layers a natural-language assistant named Marvin on top so teams can ask project questions in plain English. The platform automates the manual, error-prone work of constructability reviews, RFI drafting, submittal comparison, and drawing overlays, flagging conflicts before they become field problems. Primepoint closed a $10M seed round in April 2026.
Structured AI
Structured AI builds an AI workforce for construction design engineering. Its computer-vision platform reviews technical drawings and construction documents the way spell-check reviews text - flagging code violations, cross-discipline clashes, and compliance gaps while leaving final calls to humans. Founded in 2025 by Oxford graduates and backed by Y Combinator, the New York company sells QA/QC automation to architecture, engineering, and construction firms.
Ivan Panushev
Ivan Panushev is the CEO and founder of TwinKnowledge, a New York startup building AI agents that read the mountains of paperwork behind every building - submittals, RFIs, specs, drawings - and flag the conflicts before they reach the field. A Harvard-trained Doctor of Design, he co-founded Horizontal Systems (acquired by Autodesk in 2011 to seed BIM 360), led construction and real estate technology at AWS, and helped write the National BIM Standard. In 2025 TwinKnowledge raised a $3.7M seed led by Camber Creek, with clients including the U.S. Space Force, Toll Brothers, SHoP Architects, and Sound Transit.
Doxel
Doxel is a Menlo Park-based construction technology company that uses computer vision and AI to automatically track what is actually being built on large, complex job sites. By turning 360-degree camera footage, drone imagery and LiDAR scans into objective progress data and comparing it against the schedule, budget and BIM model, Doxel gives owners and general contractors early warning on cost and schedule risk - often described as a 'Waze for construction.' It has tracked billions of square feet of work for Fortune 500 customers including Kaiser Permanente, Shell, HCA and major data center developers.
Saurabh Ladha
Saurabh Ladha is the founder and CEO of Doxel, the computer-vision platform often called the 'Waze for construction.' Doxel uses AI to track building sites in real time and predict delays before they derail a project. Ladha built it after a two-year construction delay nearly cost his family their home. Before Doxel, he led an eight-person team that won the AUVSI International Aerial Robotics Competition with an autonomous drone. A Stanford-trained engineer and Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree, he has raised $56.5M from Insight Partners and Andreessen Horowitz, and Doxel has tracked more than 3 billion square feet of construction.
Kanav Hasija
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.
