German AI ConTech Startup Conmeet Raises €1.3M Pre-Seed Funding

The round was led by May Ventures under Managing Partner Maximilian Derpa, with the founders also contributing substantial equity to the financing.

Conmeet was founded in 2023 by Benedikt Kisner, Leandro Ananias, and Lennart Eckerlein. Kisner a serial entrepreneur and founder of the netgo group (exited via private equity sale), joined Ananias (CTO) and Eckerlein (COO) to develop conmeet over two years in stealth mode, fully self-financed.

The German startup targets the fragmented enterprise software market for construction and skilled trades, which is dominated by outdated on-premise solutions. Medium-sized companies often rely on 5–8 different tools, creating data silos, media breaks, and high administrative overhead. Existing cloud-based solutions frequently fall short of handling the sector’s process complexity.

conmeet positions itself as the first fully cloud-native platform for this market, integrating CRM, ERP, project management, controlling, banking, and communication into a central database. Its AI-powered workflows automate routine tasks and orchestrate complex processes, reducing administrative effort by 20–40% while maintaining enterprise-grade functionality.

The platform’s ecosystem-based approach enables seamless collaboration with subcontractors and project partners through structured project hierarchies, shared construction diaries, and integrated defect management. conmeet highlights that this model drives network effects and increases switching costs for customers.

“The combination of a serial entrepreneur with exit experience, an AI-ready technology base and proven traction in a fragmented market makes conmeet an exceptionally exciting investment,” commented Maximilian Derpa, Managing Partner at May Ventures.

The new funding will be used to scale operations, expand sales and marketing, and strengthen the engineering team to further enhance conmeet’s AI capabilities. The company’s long-term vision is to become the central AI platform for the entire real estate value chain.

conmeet’s roadmap follows two strategic directions. The first focuses on developing AI agents capable of autonomously managing entire business processes and replacing manual tasks.

The second aims to expand the platform into a broader ecosystem, connecting architects, general contractors, facility management, and maintenance providers alongside trades and construction companies, creating a comprehensive solution spanning planning, construction, and operations.

“After two years of product development, the first customers have been working successfully with conmeet for several months. The platform’s sweet spot is process-oriented construction and craft businesses with between 10 and 500 employees a segment with considerable market potential and a high willingness to pay for real efficiency gains,” the company mentioned in the press release.
