Miter, which provides workforce management tools for the construction industry, raised a $40M Series B led by Battery Ventures, taking its total funding to $78M

Miter, a construction workforce management platform, raised a $40 million Series B led by Battery Ventures, CEO Connor Watumull tells Axios Pro exclusively.

Context & Ripple Effects

Construction software has drawn venture backing across planning, materials and back-office workflows: Mosaic's construction-planning round and Agora's contractor materials-management funding marked earlier bets on distinct operating layers. In September 2026, Adaptive's $30 million accounting-software round showed fresh funding for contractor administration.

Miter's $40 million Series B adds workforce management to that financed construction-software stack, while extending the company's total funding to $78 million. Battery Ventures is the named lead investor.

First-order effects

  • Miter gains $40 million to fund its construction workforce-management platform, increasing its total capital raised to $78 million.
  • Battery Ventures adds Miter to its software and industrial-technology investment activity through the lead role in the Series B.

Second-order effects

  • Adaptive, Mosaic and other construction-software vendors face a better-capitalized specialist selling into overlapping contractor operations, increasing pressure to demonstrate how their products fit alongside workforce systems.
  • Construction contractors evaluating software across payroll-adjacent workforce work, accounting and planning gain another vendor with funding to compete for implementation and integration budgets.

Third-order effects

  • The financing points to construction operations becoming a contested vertical-software market, with separate workforce, accounting, planning and materials vendors competing to become a contractor's core system of record.
  • If investment continues across these adjacent categories, product integration and workflow coverage—not a single back-office feature—will increasingly determine which vendors win contractor software budgets.

The trend: Construction software investment is broadening from individual workflow tools toward competing platforms that seek a central role in contractor operations.
