Metroc, a Helsinki, Finland-based construction data platform with a database of properties, construction projects, and real estate deals, secured €2 million in seed funding.
The round was led by Lifeline Ventures, along with support from notable angel investors.
The funds will be used to develop and expand its market data platform across the Nordic countries and Europe. The company also plans to bolster its tech, sales, and marketing teams to support its growth initiatives.
Metroc develops AI solutions tailored for the construction industry. It aims to enhance efficiency and growth in construction by addressing data challenges with its platform. The data platform can assist companies in discovering projects and obtaining market analysis through autonomous real-time data gathering powered by industry-specific AI.
“For a long time, construction industry market data has been incomplete, out of date, and scattered across various platforms, resulting in construction companies being unable to find suitable projects, customers, and partners at the right time – leading to uncertainty for both businesses and end-customers,” says Jussi Virnala, CEO and founder of Metroc. “The platform provides construction companies with a comprehensive overview of upcoming projects, empowering them to navigate smoothly in this challenging environment."
