Kaqtu raises capital from real estate industry
Kaqtu has received around half a million francs from investors in the real estate industry. The young company wants to use the capital to further develop its digital assistant for the facility. Kaqtu is also looking for other partners from the furnishing market.
Kaqtu has successfully completed a first round of external investments, the young company from the Zurich Oberland announced in a press release. According to a corresponding report on startupticker.ch, business angels from the real estate industry are providing Kaqtu with a total of around half a million francs. Kaqtu intends to use the capital to further develop its digital interior design assistant.
With this, interested parties can digitally search for furniture, decoration, colors and wallpaper for individual rooms or the entire apartment. The digital setup assistant is free to use, but Kaqtu offers a number of paid packages for more personal advice.
The young company is pursuing the goal of “digitizing the entire furnishing process and thereby enabling individual and beautiful living in every household,” writes Kaqtu in the statement. However, the company does not want to achieve this on its own, but rather in cooperation with partner companies in the furnishing market. The establishment of a corresponding network is therefore to be tackled in the current year. In addition, Kaqtu wants to invest part of the newly raised capital in marketing.
