MatBook secures $750K to disrupt US construction supply chain with AI platform

MatBook’s AI-powered platform automates procurement, logistics, and quality control, offering real-time pricing, lead time predictions, personalized supplier recommendations, and integrates financing and Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) to support sustainable construction practices

Construction technology startup MatBook has raised $750,000 in a pre-seed round to modernize the way construction materials are sourced in the US market. The round was led by Seedstars International Ventures, Fluent Ventures, and Everywhere Ventures, with participation from angel investors affiliated with major tech firms like Autodesk and Amazon.

Founded by Harsh Badera, Nasir Hussain, Raghav Malhotra, and Shubham Sharma, MatBook aims to simplify the complex and often inefficient process of construction procurement. The platform was created to give contractors and distributors direct access to verified manufacturers, cutting out middlemen and reducing the friction often associated with cost overruns, delivery delays, and inconsistent quality.

At the heart of MatBook’s solution is an AI-powered platform that automates procurement, logistics, and quality control. It offers features such as real-time price estimates, lead time predictions, and personalized supplier recommendations. The platform also integrates financing options and Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) to support sustainable and compliant building practices.

Transforming construction procurement with AI

“Our focus is on removing the uncertainty from sourcing,” said co-founder Harsh Badera. “We want to make it easier, faster, and more transparent for contractors to get the materials they need, when they need them.”

With the new funding, MatBook plans to scale its team, enhance its technology stack, and expand operations deeper into the U.S. construction market. A key priority will be improving its AI models to deliver smarter procurement insights and better user experience.

MatBook enters a growing market segment alongside players like BRKZ, OfBusiness, Moglix, and Infra.Market—all of which are leveraging technology to streamline construction supply chains. Yet, MatBook is positioning itself with a unique AI-first, end-to-end control model that it believes will set it apart.

In addition to platform enhancements, the company is working on introducing credit services and expanding its supplier network to serve a broader client base.
