Mike Romanowicz's prop-tech startup Den secured $3M in venture funding co-led by Gutter Capital and Crossbeam Ventures Partners.
Den provides customizable architectural plans for houses and end-to-end construction management. "People are constantly promoting prefabrication as a solution, but for us, we're trying to think about airtight specifications," said Romanowicz.
Romanowicz was formerly the director of product management and strategic partnership at WeWork.
- He stepped down from his position in January earlier this year to focus on growing his then-side hustle into a full-fledged startup.
- Romanowicz is confident that the company's approach and lean capital strategy will help them differentiate itself from its peers.
- He adds that the firm intends to remain "asset-light" and focus on process, design, IP, and technology to scale the company while minimizing external funding.
