Why join Buildforce?
Imagine a job site where every electrician is vetted, booked, and paid through one platform, with no frantic calls on Monday morning. Buildforce, a Houston construction marketplace, is building exactly that, and it could give the trades a career layer that follows workers from job to job. Its $10M Series A in July, with Saepio Capital and S3 Ventures in the lead, takes total funding to $30M.
