Howie positions itself as an “AI Copilot for the Built Environment” and is developing an AI platform that consolidates and analyzes data from plans, images, reports, and large datasets. The goal is to enable architects, engineers, and construction site teams to make faster and better-informed decisions on complex projects.

Howie is developing the platform in close collaboration with well-known industry partners—including the award-winning London architecture firm Heatherwick Studio, the German engineering firm M&P Group, and the international SUDOP GROUP a.s.. Through their hands-on feedback, Howie ensures that the solution meets the requirements of large architecture and engineering teams.

Ewa describes the investment as a “strong vote of confidence” and an important milestone towards building an “AI Brain for the Built World.” Dar Ventures sees Howie as a solution to key industry challenges: efficient information management, transparency, and automation.

This new funding round lays the foundation for a planned larger round in Q1 2026. Until then, Howie aims to grow from five to 20 enterprise customers and prepare for market entry across Europe and the MENA region in 2027.

We wish the team continued success—and we’ll keep following your journey.
