Digs Raises $25.3M Series A Led by Builders FirstSource

The Vancouver, Washington startup lead investor doubles as its distribution channel under a five-year commercial agreement.

A $25.3 million Series A has bought Digs something most proptech startups never get: a lead investor that doubles as a distribution channel.


The Vancouver, Washington company said on Aug 25, 2026 that it raised $25.3 million in a Series A led by Builders FirstSource (NYSE: BLDR), the Irving, Texas building products supplier. The financing lands alongside a five-year commercial agreement between the two companies. Valuation was not disclosed. Earlier backers Fuse, Flying Fish, Oregon Venture Fund and Cascade Seed Fund hold positions from prior rounds. One note on the record: the VentureTerminal feed lists the round at $25M and the location as Vancouver, US — press coverage and the companies own announcement put the figure at $25.3 million and the headquarters in Vancouver, Washington.


What the company does


Digs was founded in 2022 by Ryan Fink and Ty Frackiewicz. Its platform turns construction documents into structured, searchable data: blueprints become navigable plans, with 3D models and photo-realistic renderings generated on top, and a module called DigsCare carries the same record into warranty and maintenance work after the homeowner moves in. The pitch is that the file does not die at handoff. Fink calls the result the first scalable true digital twin of the home. It is sold as SaaS to residential builders.


The numbers behind the round


The Series A brings Digs past $47 million in total funding, according to GeekWire. It follows a pre-Series A that reached nearly $20 million, capped by a $5 million tranche led by SPLY Capital in November 2025. At that point the company reported nearly 10,000 homes on the platform and customers representing more than $12 billion in annual home builds. Today Digs says it covers thousands of homes across all 50 states. Headcount is 37, with a target of more than 60 by year-end; the money is earmarked for engineers, designers, product specialists and sales and marketing hires, plus deeper integration work between the two platforms.


Why the timing matters


Builders FirstSource reports more than 140,000 customers across roughly 565 locations in 43 states. That is the number that explains the deal. A seed-stage construction software company can spend years grinding out builder-by-builder sales; a five-year agreement with the largest supplier in the category compresses that timeline, and it gives Digs a channel that its venture-funded competitors have to buy.


The structure also says something about where suppliers think margin is heading. Materials distribution is a volume business with thin spreads and a housing market that has spent two years absorbing high rates. Owning the data layer that sits between the blueprint, the order and the homeowner is a different kind of position — stickier, and harder for a rival to dislodge once a builder plans live inside it. Whether Digs can convert access into paying accounts at that scale is the open question. The capital and the contract only get it in the door.
