After a $50 million Collection A led by Andreessen Horowitz, Endra is scaling its AI-powered design platform for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineering as knowledge facilities, electrification, and net-zero infrastructure put new stress on a constrained international engineering workforce.
Each constructing finally runs into the identical constraint: the engineering capability required to make it actual. Because the world races to construct knowledge facilities, electrify infrastructure, and meet net-zero calls for by 2030, the bottleneck is changing into not possible to disregard. Endra was constructed to take away it.
Endra, the Stockholm-based AI firm, right now introduced its growth into the USA and the UK, with a North American headquarters in New York, a West Coast workplace in San Francisco, and an UK workplace in London. The growth follows Endra’s $50 million Collection A led by Andreessen Horowitz earlier this yr and units the stage for Epoch, the corporate’s launch occasion in Las Vegas this September.
The constraint inside each main constructing mission
MEP engineering sits behind each main constructing mission. Engineers calculate masses and flows, measurement programs, place hundreds of gadgets, route cabling, ductwork, and piping, coordinate throughout disciplines, and produce the documentation contractors value and construct from. When MEP slips, the entire mission slips.
The stress on that workflow is accelerating. Knowledge facilities, hospitals, electrified buildings, dense city developments, and net-zero mandates all add engineering complexity. On the similar time, the trade is going through a scarcity of certified MEP engineers and can’t prepare new engineers quick sufficient to maintain up. Endra’s view is that engineering corporations don’t want one other drafting software. They want a option to scale their experience.
What Endra is constructing
Endra is a purpose-built AI platform for MEP engineering, constructed for enterprise consultancies. The platform ingests customary constructing mannequin information, integrates with BIM instruments like Revit, and reconstructs every constructing in an in depth 3D atmosphere. From there, it automates system design, system placement, routing, mannequin era, and compliance-ready documentation throughout 3D and 2D deliverables. A code-compliant electrical design for a 500,000-square-foot business constructing that historically takes round two months could be accomplished in lower than a day.
A brand new section of world growth
The US is now the centerpiece of Endra’s progress technique. Co-Founder and President Anton Juric is main the corporate’s US go-to-market growth. Endra is already in energetic engagement with engineering consultancies throughout the nation, together with a number of of the world’s largest engineering corporations.
“Having spent the previous yr in discussions with the biggest design corporations on the planet, one factor has turn into clear: the shift to AI-native engineering is underway,” mentioned Anton Juric, Co-Founder and President of Endra. “The corporations that transfer first could have extra capability, quicker timelines, and a brand new option to scale their experience. The US is the biggest development market on the planet, and we’re constructing there in individual as a result of enterprise belief is received within the room.”
In parallel, Endra is deepening its presence in the UK. Its London workplace serves main engineering consultancies and acts as a strategic hub for enterprise clients throughout Europe and the Center East. The corporate is actively hiring throughout engineering, gross sales, and buyer success in New York, San Francisco, and London, pacing towards 100 staff globally because it scales its places of work over the following twelve months. Open roles are listed at endra.ai/careers.
Profitable the US and UK is as a lot an engineering problem as a business one. Hadla Bergman, who joined Endra from Swedish autonomous freight pioneer Einride, is among the world-class engineers making the platform native to those markets — native codes, requirements, and design workflows — and can work hand in hand with the brand new groups, initially within the US.
“From my perspective, having been a part of Einride’s mission to reinvent how the world strikes items — electrical, autonomous, and software-driven — I realized that world-changing know-how is constructed by nice builders with a relentless give attention to profitable,” mentioned Hadla Bergman, Product Engineer at Endra. “Buildings are a good larger canvas. At Endra we’re bringing that very same ambition to how the world’s buildings are designed — and really altering one of many largest industries on the planet.”
What comes subsequent: Epoch
The growth units the stage for Epoch, going down in Las Vegas on September 14, 2026. At Epoch, Endra will carry collectively main engineers and innovators to unveil its electrical module and set out its imaginative and prescient for AI-native MEP engineering, with audio system together with chess grandmaster Garry Kasparov. Extra info is obtainable at endra.ai/epoch.
“Epoch is the most important step ahead in our product’s historical past,” mentioned Niklas Lindgren, CEO and Co-Founding father of Endra. “The trade has spent twenty-five years ready for software program that understands the precise engineering work. That wait is ending.”
Endra’s ambition is to make MEP engineering the place the place the way forward for development begins. The corporate is constructing towards a world the place each main constructing is designed with the pace, precision, and intelligence the following period of infrastructure will demand.
Joe Schmidt, Companion at Andreessen Horowitz added: “The US is the biggest MEP engineering market on the planet, and it’s nonetheless operating on instruments constructed many years in the past. Endra is led by a uncommon founding staff — Niklas Lindgren and Anton Juric have constructed and scaled companies earlier than — with deep area experience within the trade they’re remodeling. With Anton now main US growth from New York, and the launch of Epoch this September marking the corporate’s entry onto the American stage, we imagine Endra will turn into the category-defining platform for AI-powered constructing design.”
