Dili Raises $21.7M to Bring AI Compliance Tools to U.S. Infrastructure Projects
TechCrunch · United States · Jul 30, 2026
Dili, an AI compliance startup targeting U.S. infrastructure and construction projects, has raised a $15M Series A led by Khosla Ventures, bringing total funding to $21.7M. The platform automates compliance with complex regulatory frameworks such as Davis-Bacon prevailing wage rules, IRA clean energy PWA requirements, and OSHA/EPA standards — areas directly relevant to staffing firms placing workers on federally funded projects. Dili's software is already deployed across roughly 700 projects, including data centers and manufacturing facilities. The company's dual model — serving both in-house compliance teams and acting as an outsourced compliance contractor — signals a potential shift in how workforce compliance services are delivered in the construction and infrastructure sectors.
