Ukrainian investment syndicate TOLOKA.vc has invested in ALICE Technologies, a Silicon Valley startup that developed the world's first AI-based generative construction simulator.
ALICE Technologies, a startup founded in 2025, has created a patented generative simulator — a technology capable of rapidly modeling and evaluating millions of construction scenarios in minutes to find optimal solutions.
Its artificial intelligence models take into account thousands of variables — from logistics to human resources — and offer optimal project implementation options.
The company's solutions integrate with key industry systems such as Oracle Primavera P6 and Microsoft Project, ensuring compatibility with CPM tools used by most contractors and extending their capabilities with artificial intelligence.
ALICE already has four patents and its technologies are used in construction worldwide worth over $115 billion.
The global construction market is estimated at $14.5 trillion, and the artificial intelligence sector in construction is growing from $3.9 billion in 2024 to $22.6 billion in 2032 (CAGR 24.5%).
“Artificial intelligence is no longer just “taking over the world” — it is starting to solve specific, pressing problems in traditional industries. ALICE is exactly that kind of company. It is not just another hyped project with a beautiful presentation, but a real solution that helps manage the three most complex variables in large-scale construction: budget, schedule, and time. Their technology allows you to simulate thousands of scenarios in real time: what will happen if you change the concrete supplier, hire a different team, or optimize logistics. And the fact that the team led by Stanford professor Rene Morcos has already proven its ability to double the business in difficult times makes ALICE a very attractive asset for potential M&A,” commented Igor Shoyfo, general partner at Toloka.vc.
Recall that TOLOKA.vc was founded in 2023 by Taras Kyrychenko, Igor Shoyfo and Oleksandr Kolb. During the first year of its existence, the syndicate attracted over 1,700 investors and invested over $20 million in fast-growing startups. TOLOKA focuses on companies that are able to scale globally and go public or become the object of a strategic acquisition.
