Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Konn Technologies is a Jordan-based construction technology company that combines three linked systems: a composable architectural design language for generating home layouts, a modular construction process intended to translate that design modularity into factory-produced physical components, and a software platform that connects the homeowner journey from initial concept through handover. Its consumer-facing brand, Konn (konnhomes.com), sells the resulting end-to-end service to homebuyers, covering architectural design, fixed pricing, manufacturing and on-site assembly under a single team.

The company positions its platform as asset-light and virtual, integrating tools already used in the industry β€” Building Information Modeling, project management software and visualisation β€” with an online configurator so that users can select and configure pre-designed home schemes that are then manufactured and assembled on land. In its consumer offering, engagements begin with a paid "DesignFit" (priced at 300 JOD), after which the buyer receives a locked-in construction price. Konn states structural components are manufactured in controlled factory conditions, that site assembly takes two to four weeks and that the period from permit issuance to move-in is three to six months. Homes use reinforced concrete structures, with steel and cast-in-place elements where the design requires, a sealed envelope and thermal insulation the company says reduces energy costs by up to 50 percent, and finish levels marketed from "Origin" to "Prime" including HVAC, electrical, plumbing and finishes.

Founding story

Konn was founded by husband-and-wife architects Basel and Basma Uraiqat, who had previously established the interior design and architecture practice Uraiqat (Uraiqat Architects), a firm with over a decade of high-end residential work in Jordan. The idea grew from repeated frustration with the gap between designed and built outcomes β€” industry-wide defects, cost overruns and schedule delays β€” and the observation that homeowners were left coordinating between architect and contractor.

Business model

Konn Technologies develops the underlying design, construction and software systems and expresses them commercially through the consumer brand Konn, which delivers custom homes to individual homeowners as a single integrated provider rather than separate architect and contractor engagements.

Revenue derives from the homeowner journey: a paid design study ("DesignFit", 300 JOD) followed by a fixed-price construction contract covering manufacturing, assembly and finishes at selectable levels (Origin to Prime).

Traction

The company reports more than 100 homes designed and over 35 homes built; earlier coverage in 2021 reported eight houses delivered and work with more than 10 material supply companies and a small number of construction companies. Employee count is reported at approximately 30.

Latest developments

In May 2026, Konn Technologies was reported to have secured $100,000 in new capital and to be a portfolio company of Cobin Angels.

β–ΈFull profile β€” market position, technology, go-to-market, geography, history, risks & controversies

Market position

One of a small number of construction technology (contech) startups in the Middle East, a region whose contech sector the company's founders describe as lagging global peers; competes with the traditional model of separately hired architects and contractors.

Vertical integration of architecture, pricing, manufacturing and construction within one system and one team, a construction price fixed before signing with no change orders, factory-controlled quality, and a compressed timeline of three to six months from permit to move-in.

Technology

A composable architectural language producing modular, configurable home designs; an online configurator layered on Building Information Modeling, project management and 3D visualisation tools; and factory manufacture of reinforced-concrete structural components for rapid on-site assembly, with design decisions flowing directly into pricing, factory scheduling and construction.

Go-to-market

Direct-to-consumer through the Konn Homes brand and online configurator, with an entry-point paid design study and access to architects for prospective buyers; the company works with material suppliers and construction partners to execute builds.

Individual homebuyers commissioning custom homes on their own land, spanning compact single-floor homes to full-scale villas; the founders have also described an interest in large-scale affordable housing development.

Geography

Headquartered in Amman, Jordan, with residential design and construction activity in Jordan.

History

Founded in 2020 (2021 press coverage described the launch as occurring earlier that year), the company emerged from Uraiqat Architects and raised seed and pre-Series A funding by late 2021, while developing a solution for large-scale affordable housing. It subsequently built out the consumer brand Konn Homes and, as of May 2026, was reported to have secured a further $100,000 in capital.

Risks & controversies

Founders have cited investor unfamiliarity with construction technology β€” including conflation with proptech β€” as a fundraising obstacle, and resistance to digitisation from manufacturers and homebuyers as the company's hardest challenge.
