This round was led by companies of the Schwarz Group, with participation from other investors including High-Tech Gründerfonds. syte's platform serves various stakeholders in the real estate industry, including banks, estate agents, project developers, and local authorities. Their newest product, "syte Renovate," focuses on optimizing renovation planning for individual properties and entire portfolios, incorporating factors like cost restrictions, subsidies, and energy efficiency. As of late 2024, the company employed a team of 23 people. syte's rapid growth and recognition in the industry suggest it is positioned to play a significant role in shaping the future of real estate development and management, particularly in the areas of sustainability and efficient urban planning.
