Company Description:
MARC is a residential property management software company based in Dublin, Ireland. We're building agentic workflows that streamline and accelerate efficient management of residential developments, increasing operating margins for property managers and large asset owners alike.
This is an incredibly large market with less than a handful of players worldwide, who have all traditionally-focused on legacy processes and technology. We recently had to close a very large and oversubscribed angel round, in a tough raising environment and in little over a month, we were 40% oversubscribed on the round. We are backed by a who's who of highly successful founders with several large 9-figure exits.
We are already working with the largest property managers in Ireland. With a diverse customer base across the UK and Ireland, we've recently started working with some of the biggest real estate funds in the world based in the U.S.A. This technology has yet to be deployed at scale worldwide, hence we are moving insanely fast across multiple geographies. We believe our agentic solutions will transform this global industry
