PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep 3, 2025--

Y Capital, a newly established private equity firm focused on technology-enabled growth in traditional industries, today announced its official launch and its lead role in a $15 million expansion capital investment in Dextall, a New York City–based company transforming the way building envelopes are designed, delivered, and installed.

The investment will support the continued development of Dextall Studio, the company’s proprietary AI-powered façade design platform, and fund national expansion. Dextall integrates artificial intelligence into every stage of the building envelope process, from early-stage planning to final installation. Its technology has been shown to reduce design-to-installation timelines by up to 80 percent, cut onsite labor by 87 percent, and lower operational energy costs by 20 percent. The company currently holds a $110 million project backlog, with approximately 90 percent tied to affordable housing projects.

Dextall will also begin its first project featuring solar-integrated façades later this year, further positioning the platform at the intersection of performance, cost efficiency, and sustainability.

“I founded Y Capital to partner with businesses that are already demonstrating traction and are prepared to scale through the thoughtful application of technology,” said Eric Vest, Founder and Managing Partner of Y Capital. “Dextall is one of the most compelling opportunities we have seen. Its cost and time savings are measurable, the product is tested in the field, and the market pull is undeniable.”

Y Capital provides more than capital. The firm brings hands-on operating experience and a distinctive approach to technology enablement. Its proprietary capital intelligence platform, Yellowwood, is currently in use by Dextall’s leadership team and board, offering data-driven financial insight to support capital planning, growth modeling, and decision-making. As part of the investment, Eric Vest has joined Dextall’s board of directors.

“Dextall was founded to remove time, cost, and complexity from the building envelope,” said Aurimas Sabulis, CEO of Dextall. “With Y Capital’s support, we are scaling Dextall Studio and expanding into new markets with a platform that brings real-world gains to developers, architects, and contractors, especially in affordable housing.”

Y Capital will formally launch its first fund in Q1 2026. The firm will invest in control and minority positions in profitable lower middle market companies with $20 million to $100 million in annual revenue. Its sector focus includes Industrials, Life Sciences, and Digital Infrastructure, where technology adoption can drive meaningful operational, commercial, and shareholder value.
