Optiml, a pioneering digital platform dedicated to Net Zero real estate investment and renovation planning, has successfully secured $4 million in pre-seed extension funding. Led by BitStone Capital and supported by KOMPAS VC, this investment will fuel Optiml’s mission to revolutionize the real estate industry through AI-powered sustainability solutions.
An ETH Zürich spin-out, Optiml leverages its proprietary AI algorithms to analyze real estate portfolios across a comprehensive range of ESG and regulatory data points. This cutting-edge technology empowers developers and asset managers to make informed financial and sustainability decisions.
The newly acquired funding will be utilized to expedite the development of Optiml‘s technology, expand its team, and cater to the surging demand for its services in the DACH region and the UK. Optiml’s innovative solution offers a wealth of insights for real estate portfolios and building assets, including indicative ESG due diligence, optimal decarbonization strategies, detailed Net Zero renovation action plans, and seamless alignment with company requirements throughout the building lifecycle.

With a proven track record of successful pilot projects with industry leaders like AXA, Credit Suisse, and Grosvenor, Optiml is rapidly gaining traction and onboarding major asset managers and consultancies.
Evan Petkov, CEO and Co-founder of Optiml, expressed his enthusiasm for the company’s growth and the potential of this investment: “This is an exciting time for Optiml as we continue to expand our team and enhance our product offerings. With this new funding, we will accelerate the development of data-driven investment strategies that enable cost-effective Net Zero transitions in sustainable buildings.”
