Struck raises €2M to speed up building compliance with AI
Amsterdam-based Struck has secured €2 million in Seed funding to make building compliance faster and more reliable for project teams. The startup uses AI to interpret complex building rules, giving developers, contractors, and municipalities instant clarity on what's allowed-before designs hit the permit desk.
Who invested
- Lead: Value Factory Ventures
- Participants: Antler and several industry angels from construction and real estate
Value Factory Ventures, founded in 2019 and based in Ridderkerk, typically backs Dutch tech in food and climate categories-this bet shows growing interest in AI applied to the built environment.
What Struck does
Struck's platform provides instant insights into project-specific rules, pulling from an extensive AI library of building codes. It includes an automated permit-exemption checker and is set to automatically verify whether designs meet legal and environmental standards.
The company already serves thousands of users in the Netherlands, including municipalities and developers. For teams juggling zoning, safety, and sustainability requirements, it reduces guesswork and cuts review loops.
Use of funds
- Scale the AI compliance platform
- Enhance automation features and verification capabilities
- Accelerate rollout across European markets
Why this matters for real estate and construction
- Fewer redesigns: Catch compliance issues at concept and schematic stages, not after submission.
- Faster feasibility: Quickly assess what's buildable on a site based on local rules and exemptions.
- Consistent interpretations: Standardize how codes are read across internal teams and external partners.
- Municipal workflow relief: Clearer applications and fewer resubmissions improve throughput.
- ESG and code readiness: Prep for automated checks against legal and environmental standards (e.g., EU building energy rules).
What to watch next
- Coverage: Country-by-country rollout and local rule depth.
- Automated verification: How deep the "design meets standards" checks go and how exemptions are handled.
- Ecosystem fit: Potential links with BIM/design tools and permitting portals.
- Local interpretations: Handling municipal nuances and updates to codes.
- Data safeguards: Privacy and security for project data.
