Automated Architecture (AUAR), a London, UK-based construction tech startup, received a £341K smart Grant from Innovate UK.
The company intends to allocate the amount to scale up its building system and micro-factory platform to manufacture mid-rise timber housing, up to 6 storeys.
The 14-month project, kicking off in January 2025, will allow the team to develop a mid-rise prototype for testing, with a clear performance evaluation, and meet regulatory requirements.
Led by CEO Mollie Claypool, AUAR is building an automated construction platform for sustainable housing. Its product suite of Robotic Micro-Factories and AUAR MasterBuilder, a design-to-manufacturing software, increases opportunity, efficiencies, predictability and oversight, while reducing financial risk and environmental costs for the construction value chain, homebuilders, developers and manufacturers.
