Berlin-based doinstruct, a compliance platform for frontline worker training, announced €16.5 million in Series A funding, marking the third consecutive year of successful fundraising and brining total investment to €26 million.
The round was led by HV Capital, with participation from existing investors including Creandum, High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF), D11Z and others.
“Companies are drowning in regulatory requirements while simultaneously dealing with staff shortages and pressure to increase efficiency,” said Charlotte Rothert, CEO and Co-founder of doinstruct. “The frontline workforce – from food processors to construction workers, from logistics operators to manufacturers – lacks the basic tools that office workers take for granted. Over 1 billion of these workers face language or literacy barriers, yet they must navigate increasingly complex regulations daily. Traditional compliance approaches are failing both workers and companies, creating unsustainable burdens on operations.”
Founded in 2021 by Charlotte Rothert, Daniel Marinkovic, Thorsten Groß, and Mona Feder, doinstruct is a leading AI-powered training platform for frontline workers, enabling companies to achieve effortless compliance and operational excellence. By leveraging AI technology, doinstruct removes traditional barriers to workplace safety and compliance, helping organisations reduce costs, improve safety standards, and increase productivity across their frontline operations.
The platform rebuilds their clients’ workplace structure, automatically identifies risks, generates documentation, and delivers engaging, bitesized training content in workers’ native languages – all without app downloads, passwords, or email addresses.
“We’re witnessing a paradigm shift in how industrial companies approach compliance and operational excellence,” said Mona Feder, CPO and Co-founder of doinstruct. “For many of our clients, doinstruct represents their first meaningful implementation of AI. We’re not just solving compliance challenges – we’re democratising AI access for the backbone of our
economy.”
As Europe implements measures to attract skilled foreign workers to address significant labor shortages, doinstruct’s multilingual solution aims to be crucial for workplace integration. The platform handles documentation and training in over 25 languages, enabling companies like Do&Co, Wiesenhof, Voelkel, Schmitz Feuerwehrtechnik, and Echterhoff to integrate international workers while maintaining strict compliance standards.
“In the current economic climate, our platform isn’t just a nice to have – it’s becoming essential for maintaining competitiveness,” continued Rothert. “We’re seeing our clients achieve 60% increase in knowledge retention rate and 53% lower training costs, which directly impacts their bottom line during these challenging times.”
According to doinstruct, leading manufacturers report reducing new worker integration time from weeks to days using doinstruct.
The company plans to expand its presence across key European markets while continuing to invest in its AI capabilities to further streamline frontline operations.
“Compliance and safety management have long been major bottlenecks for industrial companies. doinstruct is changing that by streamlining the process, helping companies maintain top-tier safety standards more efficiently. Their impressive growth shows a clear demand for smarter compliance solutions,” added David Fischer, Partner at HV Capital.
