About

Based in the US, Terranova, Inc. operates as a pioneering firm specializing in land elevation solutions to mitigate flood risks using advanced terraforming technology. Terranova, Inc. was founded in 2021 and is headquartered in San Francisco, US.


The company focuses on providing innovative terraforming services to reshape land for construction purposes. In November 2025, Terranova raised USD 7 mn in Seed funding, co-led by Congruent Ventures and Outlander VC, with involvement from other investors such as GoAhead Ventures and Ponderosa Ventures. The company has completed one deal to date, with its most recent deal occurring on November 7, 2025. The founder's background details are currently not specified.


Terranova specializes in elevating land to mitigate flood risks using advanced terraforming robots. Their core service involves reshaping land prior to construction, allowing for expedited development of residential, commercial, and industrial projects in flood-prone areas. By enabling sites to be fully consolidated within a few weeks, Terranova addresses critical elevation needs that traditional solutions like levees or seawalls cannot efficiently fulfill. The company targets a diverse clientele, including developers, municipalities, and industries operating in vulnerable geographical regions such as coastal cities and riverbanks in the United States, Europe, and parts of Asia.


End users benefit from the immediate availability of elevated land, reducing development timelines and enhancing safety against flooding. Terranova's revenue structure is primarily derived from direct B2B transactions with developers and government entities engaged in construction projects. The company adopts a project-based pricing model, where costs are determined based on the specific topographic and logistical requirements of the terraforming efforts. Clients engage Terranova for comprehensive terraforming services, which may include surveying, land elevation, and consolidation, tailored to individual project needs.


The pricing for these services is competitive compared to traditional flood mitigation methods, establishing Terranova as a cost-effective alternative in the market. This structured approach enables clients to efficiently allocate budgets for flood-resilient infrastructure, supporting Terranova's growth and sustainability within the evolving landscape of property development. In November 2025, Terranova, Inc. secured USD 7 mn in Seed funding to support the execution of initial projects, full-scale production of robotic systems, and the expansion of engineering and field deployment teams.


The company is set to introduce new advanced terraforming products aimed at improving efficiency and effectiveness in flood mitigation. Furthermore, Terranova plans to expand its operations into new geographic regions including additional coastal cities in the US and parts of Europe and Asia by 2026, leveraging the recent funding to enhance its market reach.
