## About

Based in the UK and founded in 2019 by co-founders Mollie Claypoo and Gilles Retsin, Automated Architecture provides the technological infrastructure for a distributed robotic micro-factory network producing sustainably. In June 2025, Automated Architecture, Ltd. raised GBP 5.1 million in venture funding led by new investor Planet A Ventures, with participation from other new investors Shadow Ventures, Common Magic, and Concrete Ventures. Individual investors also participated in the round. AUAR's flagship product is the low-capacity CapEx robotic microfactories and tech stack, which it licences to a network of home builders.
