Brickanta's Y Combinator Launch Films

Stockholm, 28 September, 2025 - Brickanta AI announces its official launch as Sweden’s next Y Combinator-backed startup, admitted to the accelerator in July ahead of the deadline. With support from SSE Business Lab – the startup hub behind Klarna, VOI, and Instabee – and strong momentum from its first partner customers, the company is now opening its waitlist for more construction and real estate companies.

The construction industry, representing ~10% of GDP, remains one of the least digitized. According to Sweden’s National Board of Housing, Building and Planning (Boverket), inefficiencies and miscalculations cost more than SEK 111 billion annually – much of it taxpayer-funded. Brickanta AI transforms these massive document sets into searchable, AI-audited material, ensuring cost estimation workflows where no detail is overlooked.

– “We started Brickanta to address a major societal problem that is, at its core, a data problem – exactly the kind of challenge AI was made to solve,” said Lucas Otterling, co-founder and CEO of Brickanta AI.

– “We are building a platform designed to scale globally, with construction cost estimation as the first vertical,” said Linus Bein Fahlander, co-founder and CTO.
