Visoid raises $2.5M to expand AI visualisation platform for architects

Oslo-based AI startup
Visoid has raised $2.5 million in funding to accelerate the development of its
AI visualisation platform for architects and support its international growth.
The round was led by Skyfall Ventures, with participation from existing
investors StartupLab, OBOS and Antler, alongside new investors Farvatn and
byFounders Angel Collective.

Founded in 2023 by former
architect Mark Szoke and serial entrepreneur Joachim Holwech, Visoid develops
an AI-powered visualisation platform designed specifically for architectural
workflows. The software transforms existing 3D models into high-quality visualisations
within minutes while preserving the original design intent, allowing architects
to explore different ideas and communicate designs without relying on
traditional rendering processes.

The company is focusing on
the growing use of AI earlier in the architectural design process. Rather than
being used solely to produce final images, Visoid enables architects to
visualise and evaluate different concepts while designs are still evolving.

Unlike general-purpose image generators, the platform works directly with
existing architectural models and workflows, allowing users to iterate on
designs while maintaining consistency with the underlying project.

Our current position gives
us a strong foundation to develop Visoid for bigger, design-driven workflows,
and the app is already ready for architects worldwide. This new capital lets us
hire faster, expand our market position, and invest more in both the team and
the product,

said Mark Szoke, CEO of Visoid.

Visoid will use the new
capital to expand its engineering, product and commercial teams, develop
additional AI capabilities for architectural workflows, grow its international
customer base and deepen partnerships with architecture and design firms.
