Von Perry
The business, the turning points, and the decisions behind them.
01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
Von Perry was a U.S. construction-automation startup founded by Treyvon Perry. It used proprietary 3D-printing construction products and project-delivery software to consolidate homebuilding, claiming to increase the speed, accuracy and efficiency of construction while cutting costs by 20-30%. The company marketed 3D-printed smart homes and had multiple housing projects under construction in Texas.
02 / Von Perry FAILURE REASONS
Failure reasons
Von Perry never reached meaningful scale: in FY2021 it reported just $28,900 in revenue with $7,415 in cash on hand, while carrying a $10 million pre-money valuation in its crowdfunding round. Its 2022-2023 StartEngine equity crowdfunding raised only about $101,000 of a $1.23 million maximum, and a follow-on 2023 crowdfunding round was cancelled. With negligible revenue and no further financing, the company went out of business, recorded by PitchBook in May 2024. No public post-mortem was published.
