About Pillar
Pillar is an Italian startup founded on February 13, 2025. In less than a year, we raised €15.2 million to revolutionize the construction industry, and we are growing fast.
Our mission is to rebuild its foundations.
Our ambition is to manage 1 in 3 construction sites in Europe.
We are Italian, but with a European vision 👷 🏗️
The Italian construction industry is the backbone of the country's economy, involving nearly 5 million people, yet it is still managed with outdated tools.
Pillar was built to solve this problem at its root. We have built an all-in-one platform that allows construction companies to oversee every job site and monitor profitability in real time.
