Neuron Factory, a company dedicated to transforming the construction industry through AI software, announced its seed funding round and a strategic partnership with Cordeel Group. The company also raised $6 million in seed funding in an over-subscribed round, from Activant Capital, Colle Capital, Karman Ventures, Punch Capital and strategic investors including Filip Cordeel, Chairman of Cordeel Group.
Neuron Factory’s AI-based coworker platform is powered by a proprietary enterprise task graph, which is a dynamic system that maps tasks, roles, and knowledge across an organization. And this enables AI agents to operate intelligently within complex construction environments, supporting real-time coordination, task delegation, and decision-making. In an industry that depends on discrete legacy tools, the company believes that agentic AI coworkers that orchestrate context-specific agents and allow teams at work to focus on their areas of expertise will improve efficiency throughout every phase of the construction process.
Neuron Factory was created by a seasoned team of technology leaders: Zaid Kahn, formerly Vice President of Engineering at Microsoft; Salil Pandit, former Chief Product & Technology Officer at PrimaryBid and Engineering Lead at Waymo; and Tom De Raedt, founder of Escher Cloud. And their combined expertise spans AI systems, model training, and datacenter infrastructure.
