Martello, the AI-powered platform reimagining how environmental and property risks are assessed during conveyancing, today announced it has raised £1.2 million in a funding round led by Fuel Ventures. The round also includes participation from strategic angel investors with deep expertise in environmental searches and property law.
Martello is pioneering a smarter way to surface, analyse, and communicate critical environmental risks—such as flooding, subsidence, and contamination—that affect property transactions across the UK. By using Martello’s deep data expertise to interrogate thousands of data points in real time, the platform dramatically improves the due diligence process for lawyers, and their buyers.
Founded by a team of data science and legal experts, Martello is on a mission to replace the ambiguous outputs, PDF-heavy reports used in environmental property searches with definitive answers, exceptional service, and interactive dashboards. Martello have been on the market for 15 months now, and are releasing high quality reports at an unprecedented pace, working with some of the industry’s most respected law firms to iterate and gain feedback quickly.
