Portuguese home services app OSCAR has secured €6M in a Pre-Series A funding round, co-led by Indico Capital Partners and Lince Capital, with additional participation from Failup Ventures, Boost Capital Partners, and the founders of unicorns Bolt and Wolt.
The platform guarantees fixed prices and fast service, addressing common challenges such as unreliable service providers and opaque pricing in the home services sector. OSCAR has grown to serve over 600,000 customers and generate more than €20M in annual revenue.
The recent funding will enable OSCAR to reinforce its presence in Portugal and Spain, where it has achieved market leadership, and to launch operations in the UK. The home services industry in Europe has traditionally been fragmented, with challenges related to service quality, pricing transparency, and trust.
Stephan de Moraes, Managing General Partner at Indico Capital Partners, expressed enthusiasm about OSCAR’s growth: “We are delighted with OSCAR’s exponential growth in Portugal and Spain, and are excited to be part of this round. This investment will be instrumental in OSCAR’s entry into the UK market and expanding its team, solidifying its customer service and the consistency of its offer.”
Francisco Formigal Pinto, Fund Manager at Lince Capital and OSCAR Board Member, highlighted the company’s ability to address market gaps: “OSCAR’s success reveals the clear supply gap that existed in this sector, but above all it is essentially due to the management team’s ability to execute, which has managed to combine the needs of both clients and technicians, adding value to both parties.”

BuiltAPI GmbH, the company pioneering API-driven data infrastructure for real estate investment and asset management, has successfully closed its latest funding round backed by industry leaders including Second Century Ventures, TDS, and Propertymark. The investment marks a major milestone as BuiltAPI expands its services across Europe and the UK, following its graduation from the REACH UK Accelerator Program.
BuiltAPI tackles one of the real estate sector’s most persistent problems: fragmented, siloed data ecosystems. The company provides a robust API framework that enables seamless connectivity between legacy systems, modern SaaS tools, and intelligent automation platforms — with interoperability, governance, and cybersecurity at its core.
“We’re building the backbone of real estate data infrastructure,” said Olga Dentzel, Co-Founder of BuiltAPI. “This funding and the support of the REACH UK program are accelerating our ability to deliver secure, scalable integrations to clients across borders.”
BuiltAPI’s technology is already making an impact with major real estate institutions such as HIH Real Estate and its fund service platform INTREAL, through their digital unit INTREAL Solutions. These collaborations highlight a shared vision for practical and scalable digital transformation in real estate asset and investment management.
“The industry doesn’t need yet another tool — it needs a connective tissue,” added Ivan Nokhrin, Co-Founder of BuiltAPI. “Our mission is to empower real estate professionals to access, share, and act on their data securely and without barriers.”
Graduation from the REACH UK Accelerator — the scale-up program backed by Second Century Ventures – marks BuiltAPI’s official entry into the UK market. The program has played a key role in unlocking investors support and refining BuildAPI’s growth trajectory.
