SFC Capital has led a £300k pre seed round in London based construction technology firm Aichitect.
Aichitect provides an artificial intelligence platform built by architects to streamline construction and development projects. The London firm helps clients optimise architectural delivery through data analysis.
London based Aichitect has secured £300k in a pre seed funding round led by SFC Capital. The capital will support the ongoing development and enhancement of its artificial intelligence platform, which assists stakeholders in de risking planning, design, costing and building operations.
Founded by chartered architect David Adjei alongside chief technology officer Mike De Shazer, the company draws on years of industry experience to address compliance and cost challenges in the construction sector. The platform has already assessed projects exceeding £100m, including efficiency gains at Cambridge University Hospital.
SFC Capital backed the round based on the founding team's domain expertise and the platform's potential for global expansion. Aichitect plans to focus initially on growth within the United Kingdom while supporting projects across multiple continents.
From the founder
"Having run my own architecture firm for nine years, I’ve been exploring ways to make the delivery processes easier and less costly for everyone involved, I knew there had to be a solution. Since 2022, I’ve explored the vast number of issues each stakeholder might come up against and, along with my co-founder and CTO Mike De’Shazer, we’re building a better way of doing things in the future for each individual company, freelancer and homeowner. We’re really proud of what we’ve achieved so far. We’re thrilled to have received the backing of SFC Capital and look forward to continuing to develop and enhance our offering which ultimately is a solution to de-risk the planning, design, costing and building of all types of construction projects, which in today’s world, where budgets are tighter than ever, we know Aichitect will be a valuable asset to many in the industry."
