The capital will be used to accelerate the development of BuildBear Labs’s flagship platform.
Founded by Dipesh Sukhani and Emmanuel Antony, BuildBear Labs is building an automated and continuous testing engine (ACTE) inspired by tools like BrowserStack that goes beyond standard testing to address the unique complexities of the Web3 landscape.
A specialised platform dedicated to dApp development and testing, it offers developers the ability to craft customised Private Testnet sandboxes across multiple Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and EVM-compatible blockchain networks.
BuildBear Labs’s key features include private faucets for unlimited Native and ERC20 token minting.
