Software startup Chapter receives €3 million to further develop its AI platform that gives installers and service teams faster access to technical knowledge

Amsterdam, January 23, 2025 - Software company Chapter has successfully raised €3 million from Rubio Impact Ventures and CapitalT to make workflows in the sustainable energy sector more efficient with the help of AI. With this capital, the company plans to further develop and launch the world's first AI-based knowledge operating system specifically for this industry.

Insights into the challenges

The sustainable energy sector faces several key challenges: increasing project complexity, growing need for fast and error-free installation, growing demand for technical support and a severe skills shortage.

Chapter AI offers solutions to these challenges:

• On-site support: Installers get quick access to technical knowledge via a mobile app to avoid installation errors and wasted time.
• Automated helpdesks: AI-based chatbots can answer up to 80% of queries efficiently, taking the pressure off service teams.
• Seamless integration: The platform can be integrated into websites, IVR systems and CRM tools to ensure comprehensive support.
• Multilingual availability: Content is available in multiple languages to facilitate work across Europe.
• Centralized content management: Training materials and knowledge documents are provided on demand to increase efficiency and competence.

With these measures, Chapter is focusing on increasing efficiency in the long term and solving the problem of skilled workers.

An experienced team for a clear mission

Chapter was founded in 2021 by serial entrepreneur André Haardt, who has already built a leading EdTech platform with Squla. Together with CPO Peter Hofstede and CCO Rutger Laman Trip, the company aims to accelerate the energy transition through the intelligent use of AI-based solutions.

We are at a turning point in the energy sector. Our technology is not only changing the day-to-day work of installers, but also laying the foundations for a more sustainable and efficient future.
