AI Homebuilder Higharc Raises $95M Series C

Higharc, the startup that uses artificial intelligence to manage homebuilding from design through construction, has closed a $95 million Series C round that lifts its total funding past $170 million.

The round was led by Insight Partners, with Wellington Management joining as a new investor. Existing backers Fifth Wall, Spark Capital, Lux Capital, SE Ventures (Schneider Electric's venture arm), Simpson Strong-Tie, PSP Partners, RXR Arden Digital Ventures, Suffolk Technologies, Vertex Ventures, NC Tweener Fund and MetaProp also participated.

The Durham, North Carolina company works with large homebuilders and supply chain partners. Higharc generates homes as 3D spatial data, letting builders design, estimate, sell and construct houses through a single platform. The pitch is straightforward: connect the design phase directly to the construction phase, cutting the inefficiencies that typically slow down homebuilding.

Higharc's growth has earned outside recognition. The company ranked in the top 50 of Deloitte's Technology Fast 500 and was named to Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies of 2026.

The homebuilding industry has been slow to adopt software that links design and construction, partly because the process is fragmented across architects, engineers, contractors and suppliers. Higharc treats the home as a data object from the start, which changes how estimates and material orders flow through the supply chain. For a sector where margins are often thin and timelines slip easily, that integration carries real value.

Venture capital has flowed steadily into construction technology over the past few years, though the biggest checks have gone to firms that focus on the commercial side of the industry. Higharc's focus on single-family homebuilding puts it in a different category. With housing supply still constrained and builders looking for any edge on speed and cost, the Series C suggests investors see the residential side as the next growth layer.
