London-based marketplace connecting architects and contractors, Weaver has raised $4 million.
The seed round funding is expected to fuel expansion plans across metro areas in the U.K.
It was led by European VC btov Partners with participation from FJ Labs, Enterprise Fund (a syndicate of former Atlassian & Docker executives), Ben Naftzger (former Atlassian marketing director), Justen Stepka (former product manager at Atlassian & Docker), Jens Schumacher (CPO of search.io and former head of product at Atlassian) and Dr. Stefan Heitmann (founder & CEO of MoneyPark and PriceHubble) amongst others.
The company has earlier raised $5.5 million, previously in pre-seed from angel investors such as Greg Marsh (founder and CEO of Nous and onefinestay), Demetrios Zoppos (founder and COO/chairman of Klevio and onefinestay), Natasha Foster (co-founder and COO of Paid), Dan Scott (former COO of Houst/Airsorted) and Lorenzo Franzi (partner at Global Founders Capital and former founder and MD of ZipJet).
The startup helps architects and their homeowner clients to reduce the risks associated with hiring a general contractor by developing software that does all the critical work from sourcing, pricing, contracting, and paying contractors over one interface.
It also acts as a go-to mediator in case things don’t work out as planned between a homeowner and general contractor.
