Construction Artificial intelligence Venture capital
Event Summary

MeltPlan, a pre-construction AI platform founded in 2025 by Kanav Hasija and Tanmaya Kala, has successfully raised $10 million in a seed funding round. This round was led by Bessemer Venture Partners, with participation from Noa, bringing MeltPlan's total funding to $14 million. The capital will be used to further develop its 'planning engine,' an AI system designed to optimize decisions before construction begins, specifically across code compliance, cost estimation, scheduling, and value optimization. MeltPlan aims to address the fragmentation and incomplete information often present in preconstruction, which leads to costly late-stage changes. The company is already working with major enterprise contractors like DPR Construction in California and Innovo Group in the UAE, demonstrating the practical application and demand for its construction-native AI system.
