comstruct secures €12.5 million in a funding round from GV and 20VC
Munich, January 28, 2025 — The Munich-based startup comstruct, which is driving digitalization in the construction industry, has completed a €12.5 million funding round. The round was led by the global venture capital firms GV and 20VC. In less than three years, comstruct evolved from an idea in a student dormitory at the University of St. Gallen into a platform used on more than 13,000 construction sites across Europe.
The new capital will help comstruct advance its mission: to transform the construction industry by seamlessly connecting material suppliers and construction companies — and replacing inefficient, paper-based processes with automated workflows.
“Construction companies are drowning in administrative processes: piles of delivery notes and entire rooms full of employees taking calls and documenting everything. I experienced this firsthand while working for one of the world’s largest concrete suppliers. At comstruct, we want to finally enable construction companies to focus on building again. Thanks to recent developments in AI, now is the perfect time for that.” — Henric Meinhardt, CEO and Managing Director of comstruct
What comstruct does
comstruct integrates directly into material suppliers’ systems and structures orders, delivery notes, and invoice data. The delivery note module alone reduces processing time by more than 90%. As a result, an average construction company with 1,000 employees saves more than €500,000 per year and increases its profitability by 20%. Beyond efficiency gains, structured data capture enables faster project execution, less material waste, and more accurate cost calculations.
“High data quality is essential for us at HOCHTIEF. In particular, material data is often available in unstructured form due to different supplier practices — manual entry is extremely time-consuming and frustrating. comstruct has fundamentally changed this by automating these processes while also elevating our data quality to a new level.” — Maximilian von Wedel, Strategic Project Lead Procurement ESG & Digitalization at HOCHTIEF
Investor voices
“The founding team at comstruct impressed us with their deep understanding of the construction industry. They combine strong expertise in sales, product, and software development. They identified core challenges in a huge market and built a seamless solution to move the construction industry from manual processes to modern workflows.” — Luna Schmid, Partner at GV
“Henric is exceptional — we sent him a term sheet within just four days, and I flew to Munich without a change of clothes to win the deal. The construction industry is one of the largest industries that has so far barely been touched by AI. comstruct has the chance to fundamentally shape the entire construction industry.” — Paul Bonnet, General Partner at 20VC
Team & growth
comstruct’s 25-person team is made up of outstanding talent who previously worked at fast-growing companies such as FINN, Tacto, Celonis, and Westwing. With fresh capital, comstruct plans to continue expanding the team and hire experienced specialists to achieve its ambitious growth targets. comstruct offers a dynamic, performance-driven culture with a meaningful equity program.
