About Koppla
Founded to modernise the construction industry’s fragmented workflows, Koppla develops an all-in-one construction management platform designed to streamline construction processes by combining project scheduling, project management, and service management into a single interface. The platform offers real-time scheduling visibility, enabling on-site teams and office-based staff to stay aligned throughout the entire construction process. koppla’s software has already been adopted by over 100 customers across 600 active projects, helping companies avoid costly delays and inefficiencies in an industry traditionally underserved by modern software solutions.
Founded by Jerome, Marco Trippler, and Lasse Steffen, Koppla is emerging as a leading force in modernizing how construction sites are managed in the DACH region. Its proprietary M3 system updates project schedules dynamically based on real-world inputs, helping crews avoid idle time and missed deadlines. To date, Koppla’s platform has helped manage over €3 billion in construction volume.
Purpose of financing
With the new capital, Koppla plans to expand its feature set and scale its workforce, particularly in the sales, customer success, product, and technology departments. The startup’s goal is to build a simple yet comprehensive scheduling tool tailored specifically for the dynamic and often unpredictable nature of construction projects. This includes enhancing the system’s adaptability to shifting site conditions to maintain optimal workflow and coordination.

Koppla offers a fresh approach that’s built with the construction industry’s needs in mind.”
