MODEINSPECT RAISES $3.4M SEED ROUND TO SET A NEW STANDARD FOR MODERN PRODUCT DESIGN

Prague and San Francisco, 15 January 2026 — Modeinspect, the company eliminating the gap between design and code, has raised a $3.4 million seed round led by Partech, with participation from Credo Ventures, Angelinvest, Michal Vasko (Product Design Lead at Meta), and Jozef Kepesi (co-founder of Kiwi.com), Fredrik Bjork (Grafbase) and others. This brings Modeinspect’s total funding to $4.2 million.

For over a decade, product design has been stuck in simulation. Designers work in static files, hand off to developers, and spend weeks reconciling mockups with what ends up in production. Modeinspect breaks that cycle, letting designers edit live products directly, the same way developers edit code.

The $6 billion design software market has seen little change since Adobe’s proposed acquisition of Figma. Modeinspect is betting that the next wave won’t be about better prototypes, it’ll be about removing them entirely.

“Design tools have made prototypes look more beautiful,” said Martin Antos, co-founder and CEO of Modeinspect. “But in large companies, designers and developers struggle to collaborate efficiently. Our solution is simple: designers create directly what they want, and developers make sure the code output fits their standards instead of spending time on the whole implementation with their already packed engineering capacity.”

“We’re not here to make design tools better,” added Slavomir Glinsky, co-founding designer. “We’re here to establish a new standard for product design.”

Modeinspect is already live with Kiwi.com and is now scaling to serve Fortune 500 companies, e-commerce leaders, and consumer software enterprises.

“Modeinspect is defining a new operating layer between design and engineering,” said Moritz Steinbrecher, Principal at Partech. “They are tackling one of the most entrenched process inefficiencies in product creation. Their platform finally puts AI into the hands of design teams, transforming them into real-time collaborators, eliminating the endless iterations until a product change goes live.”

The funding will be used to accelerate Modeinspect’s adoption, expand on the enterprise partnerships and scale operational capability. The company will continue building what it calls the first ‘live design’ platform where every edit happens in production.
