Investment in construction technology continues to grow as startups focused on artificial intelligence, robotics, workforce management, and digital procurement attracted a combined $234 million in recent funding.
Much of the new investment is targeting solutions that help contractors improve productivity, address labor shortages, automate repetitive tasks, and make better use of project data.
Here is a closer look at six construction technology companies that recently secured new funding.
TerraFirma Raises $115 Million
Construction robotics company TerraFirma secured the largest investment, raising $115 million, including a $100 million Series A funding round.
The company develops an AI-powered platform that combines preconstruction software with remotely operated heavy equipment. Its system allows operators to manage multiple machines, including excavators, dozers, loaders, rollers, and skid steers, from a centralized control center.
TerraFirma plans to use the funding to expand its engineering, manufacturing, construction, and operations teams while continuing to develop its semi-autonomous equipment technology.
Arrakis Secures $37.5 Million
AI software company Arrakis raised $37.5 million through Seed and Series A funding rounds.
The company helps industrial businesses, including construction firms, integrate AI agents into their existing software systems. Its platform allows companies to deploy AI tools more quickly without replacing their current technology.
The new investment will support expansion into the United States, Europe, and the Middle East while strengthening the company’s platform and security capabilities.
Gritt Raises $32.4 Million for Robotics
California-based Gritt launched with $32.4 million in funding to expand its robotic retrofit technology.
Rather than building entirely new machines, the company develops robotic arms and AI systems that can be installed on existing equipment such as forklifts and skid steers.
The technology is designed to automate material handling, assembly, and transportation while collecting real-time jobsite data to support project managers and supervisors.
According to the company, its learning system improves with every deployment, allowing automation to be introduced more quickly on future projects.
Monumental Expands Bricklaying Robotics
Dutch robotics company Monumental raised $32 million in a Series B funding round to grow its construction automation business.
The company operates robotic bricklaying systems controlled by its AI software platform. The robots use computer vision, sensors, and lifting equipment to build masonry walls with high levels of accuracy.
Monumental has already completed work on schools, hotels, community buildings, residential developments, and infrastructure projects across Europe.
Instead of selling robots, the company works as a subcontractor, completing masonry work using its automated systems.
The new funding will help expand its engineering team, deploy additional robots, and support its planned entry into the U.S. market.
Buildforce Raises $10 Million
Construction workforce platform Buildforce secured $10 million to continue expanding its staffing technology.
The company connects licensed electricians with electrical contractors through mobile and web-based applications.
Its platform helps contractors find skilled workers while allowing electricians to locate available job opportunities more efficiently.
The funding will support nationwide expansion and continued development of the company’s workforce management technology.
SubBase Receives $7 Million
Construction procurement platform SubBase raised $7 million to improve its digital purchasing platform.
The software allows specialty contractors and self-performing general contractors to manage supplier pricing, place material orders, track deliveries, communicate with vendors, and reconcile invoices from a single platform.
The company also plans to enhance its platform with AI-powered tools that analyze pricing trends, supplier performance, and delivery data to improve purchasing decisions.
AI and Robotics Continue to Attract Investment
The latest funding activity highlights growing investor confidence in technologies that improve efficiency across the construction industry.
Artificial intelligence and robotics continue to receive the largest investments, particularly solutions that automate equipment, simplify workflows, and improve decision-making through data.
At the same time, companies focused on workforce management and material procurement are also attracting funding as contractors look for ways to address labor shortages and improve project efficiency.
As construction firms continue adopting digital tools, investment in AI-powered software, automation, and connected equipment is expected to remain a major trend in the years ahead.
