Sodex Innovations Raises 4 Million Euros and Uses AI to Digitize Construction Sites in Real Time
The digital transformation of the construction industry continues to advance. The Austrian ConstructionTech company Sodex Innovations has closed a funding round of 4 million euros to expand its AI-powered platform for real-time surveying and management of construction sites internationally.
The round was led by Capmont Technology. Also new to the investment are Bloomhaus Ventures, Look AI Ventures, and the German business angel group Superangels. Existing investors SOSV, OMA, and 12 Rounds Capital are also participating again.
Construction Machinery Becomes Data Collectors
Sodex Innovations is developing technology that enables construction machinery to automatically collect survey data while in operation. Sensors and AI analyze terrain, material movements, and construction progress in real time. The data is transmitted directly to a cloud platform where construction companies can access documentation, quantity takeoffs, and progress analyses.
Real-time updates directly from the construction site have become the central hub and are now indispensable for many of our customers. With this funding, we can not only expand our team but also our portfolio and scale internationally much more quickly
Ralf Pfefferkorn, CEO and co-founder of Sodex Innovations
This eliminates a large portion of manual surveying work. At the same time, up-to-date project data is available at any time to support decision-making on the construction site.
Greater transparency for construction projects
Especially in large infrastructure projects, mines, or complex construction sites, incomplete data often leads to delays, higher costs, and additional documentation efforts.
Sodex aims to automate this process and continuously map construction projects digitally. This should enable construction companies to react more quickly to changes and manage projects more efficiently.
According to the company, more than 100 customers in Europe, the U.S., and Australia are already using the platform on a daily basis.
Focus on International Growth
With the fresh capital, the company plans to accelerate its product development, expand its team, and drive international expansion.
For the first time, Sodex makes physical construction activity measurable and controllable in real time, thereby creating the data foundation on which the industry will be managed in the future.
Michael Wittner, Partner at Capmont Technology
Investors view the combination of hardware, cloud software, and artificial intelligence in particular as a decisive competitive advantage in an industry that has so far been slow to digitize.
AI Is Transforming the Construction Site
Sodex Innovations was founded by Ralf Pfefferkorn and his team in Vorarlberg, Austria. The startup is part of a new generation of ConstructionTech companies that automate traditional construction processes using sensors, cloud technology, and AI.
With this latest round of funding, Sodex aims to further expand its position in the international market—and make construction sites measurable, documentable, and controllable in real time in the future.
