Buildots Raises $45 Million to Scale AI-Powered Operational Excellence in Construction

Investment brings total funding to $166M; will accelerate construction industry transformation amid booming mega-project construction

Buildots, a leader in AI-powered construction management, today announced the completion of a $45 million funding round led by Qumra Capital with participation from OG Venture Partners, TLV Partners, Poalim Equity, Future Energy Ventures, and Viola Growth. This investment brings Buildots’ total funding to $166 million. With triple-digit revenue growth projected for another year, Buildots continues to gain momentum as it reshapes how construction is managed. As part of the collaboration, Boaz Dinte, Managing General Partner at Qumra Capital, will join Buildots as a board member.

Using advanced AI and computer vision technology, Buildots provides predictive analytics to help construction teams cut delays by up to 50% and unlock millions in cost savings – a crucial edge as the world experiences a data center and mega-project construction boom, supply chain disruptions, and labor shortages. In response, the company is expanding its platform to cover more stages of the construction lifecycle, using historical data to benchmark and optimize future project performance – a capability that this latest funding round will accelerate at scale.

“This investment is about transforming how construction is managed worldwide,” said Roy Danon, CEO and co-founder of Buildots. “Achieving operational excellence will take time and require a major industry shift, but the potential impact is enormous. We’re already seeing a shift from project-by-project tech adoption to long-term enterprise agreements, with multiple seven-figure deals signed so far this year. As firms move from reactive to proactive management, the industry stands to unlock billions in cost savings and operational gains. That’s the future we’re building.”

“We’re investing in Buildots because it has proven that its technology can deliver tangible ROI to the world’s largest construction firms,” added Boaz Dinte, Managing General Partner at Qumra Capital. “2024 was a pivotal year for Buildots. The team demonstrated strong fundamentals by achieving exponential growth and low customer churn, while also significantly expanding the platform. Buildots’ success is driven not just by its AI and computer vision capabilities, but by a relentless, forward-thinking team committed to reshaping construction – the kind of breakthrough that can redefine an industry.”

In 2025, Buildots is on track to quadruple its North American presence, building upon its current client base, which includes top general contractors and project owners like The Turner Corp., STO Building Group Inc., JE Dunn Construction Group, Samet Corporation, Mortenson, Ledcor, and Pomerleau. This success is reflected worldwide. The company has also established strategic agreements with leading UK contractors, including Sir Robert McAlpine, as well as implementations with Wates, Kier, Multiplex and IHP. In Europe, it works with VINCI Construction, NCC, Hochtief, GCC, Bouygues Construction and more.

The surge in data center and semiconductor fab construction, which is itself fueled by accelerating advancements in AI, has also emerged as a significant growth driver. Intel, a client-turned-investor, uses Buildots to boost operational efficiency in its global semiconductor fab construction program.

The Series D funding will fuel continued development of Buildots’ platform, expanding its capabilities to address challenges across the construction lifecycle and cementing its role as a transformative industry force.
