Dubai - Sharikat Mubasher: Smart Bricks, an AI-powered property technology startup based in Dubai, secured $5 million in a pre-seed funding round led by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z Speedrun), with participation from leading funds and angel investors across the US, Europe, and the Middle East.

The new capital will enable Smart Bricks to develop its platform, expand AI-driven underwriting and execution workflows, and scale coverage across key global real estate markets, the company announced in a statement today.

Smart Bricks designs and deploys autonomous reasoning systems that allow capital to identify, evaluate, and execute real-estate investments end-to-end, reducing a process that traditionally takes three to six months into minutes. It ingests over one million proprietary and public data feeds and applies agentic AI to continuously analyze supply, pricing, liquidity, regulation, and risk across global markets.

Mohamed Mohamed, Founder and CEO of Smart Bricks, said: “Investors in public markets already expect instant insight, scenario analysis, and AI-driven recommendations. We bring that same level of speed, intelligence, and confidence to global real estate, allowing capital to move with institutional precision across borders.”

Smart Bricks is designed for retail and institutional operators deploying capital across markets such as Dubai, London, New York, Miami, and major US cities, who want to outperform competitors by leveraging the most advanced AI capabilities. It serves as the AI infrastructure layer for modern real estate investing, rather than acting as a marketplace or broker network.
