MeltPlan raises $10 Mn in seed round led by Bessemer Pre-construction AI platform MeltPlan has raised $10 million in a seed funding round led by Bessemer Venture Partners, with participation from noa. This round brings the company’s total funding to $14 million. The proceeds will be used to develop a “planning engine” for the construction industry and accelerate product development across code, cost, schedule, and value decision systems, MeltPlan said in a press release. Co-founded in 2025 by Kanav Hasija and Tanmaya Kala, MeltPlan aims to build a construction-native AI system designed to understand building codes, materials, sequencing, procurement, and construction methods. The system has already scored 95% or higher on building inspector exams, and the company is working to expand its expertise across all trades and disciplines involved in construction planning. While design software optimizes use and aesthetics, and construction software focuses on execution and control, MeltPlan is building the missing layer, software that optimizes decisions and trade-offs upstream, before scope is locked, procurement begins, and change orders become inevitable. According to MeltPlan, the Planning Engine will consist of four integrated systems: a code system that provides context-aware compliance pathways for architects, engineers, and inspectors; a cost system; a schedule system; and a value system, which delivers value-impact analysis and optimization recommendations for owners and developers. MeltPlan said it aims to make construction “boring” by making planning more rigorous, surfacing constraints and trade-offs early, aligning stakeholders before plans are finalized, and reducing the need for late-stage redlines, rework, and change orders. The company added that it is working with leading enterprise contractors such as DPR Construction in California and Innovo Group in the UAE to support their planning and pre-construction phases.
