Struck raises €2 million to simplify building compliance with AI
Amsterdam-based startup Struck secured €2 million in seed funding to expand its AI-driven platform for simplifying building compliance across Europe. This investment, led by Value Factory Ventures, highlights the growing importance of digital tools in addressing complex regulatory challenges within the construction sector, particularly in the context of sustainable building practices. Struck's AI platform, founded in 2024, assists architects, developers, and municipalities in navigating intricate building regulations. The software offers immediate insights into applicable rules and will soon automatically verify designs against legal and environmental standards. The platform currently serves thousands of users in the Netherlands, including municipalities, builders, developers, and architects, and features an AI library of building codes and an automated permit-exemption checker. The platform's digitization and automation of compliance checks aim to expedite permitting processes, reduce costs, and promote sustainable construction. The construction sector accounts for nearly 40% of global CO2 emissions, yet there is an urgent need to construct millions of new homes, making efficiency and sustainability critical. Struck's expansion plans include entering other European markets, reflecting a broader trend towards digital solutions addressing regulatory hurdles within the built environment.
