Deep-tech startup Contineu raises $1.2 Mn led by SenseAI Ventures

Deep-tech startup Contineu has raised $1.2 million in a seed funding round led by SenseAI Ventures along with participation from Piper Serica Angel Fund.

The proceeds will be used to build the AI-powered vertical data infrastructure stack for the construction industry, automating quality monitoring, compliance checks, and site-level visibility at scale, Contineu said in a press release.

Co-founded in 2023 by Harshil Naik and Kanao Ramesh, Contineu eliminates the need for manual data entry on job sites through a proprietary platform that combines helmet-mounted 360° cameras with 3D computer vision models. The system automatically captures on-site visuals and converts them into structured insights, beginning with QA/QC detection and documentation.

According to Contineu, its AI pipeline consistently exceeds state-of-the-art (SOTA) benchmarks on construction datasets, enabling high-accuracy defect and non-compliance detection, automated documentation, and execution insights—without human input.

The platform claims that it is already seeing early enterprise adoption in India and abroad, with a growing sales pipeline and product-market fit signals emerging.

Contineu aims to build the vertical AI data stack for construction, and it is enabling global infrastructure players to make smarter, faster decisions on-site.
