MiTek

What MiTek does

MiTek Inc., a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway, is a global provider of integrated software, engineered products, and automated solutions for the residential and light-commercial building components industry. The company's software portfolio spans 3D BIM structural modeling (MiTek Structure), business management (MiTek Management), manufacturing execution (MiTek Production), cloud delivery (MiTek Cloud / SAPPHIRE), and a suite of builder, engineer, and architect tools (Kova, Wrightsoft, Moment Frame Designer, CFS Frame Designer, Specifier, Viewer). Its engineered products segment supplies structural connectors, connector plates, Posi Strut, floor trusses, lateral systems, fasteners, and corrosion protection hardware, distributed through Home Depot, Menards, a broad North American LBM dealer network, and MiStore online ordering. The automation division manufactures component-plant equipment including MatchPoint DirectDrive, BLADE II, Cyber AT and Hornet II saws, stackers, conveyors, platen presses, Virtek TrussLine laser templating, and Panels Plus wall-panel systems, supported by MiTek Guardian automation services and Plant Optimization consulting.

MiTek serves four primary customer segments: home builders, lumber and building materials (LBM) suppliers, component manufacturers (truss and wall-panel fabricators), and design professionals (engineers and architects), with secondary reach into building officials. Revenue is generated through a mix of subscription software (MiTek Cloud, Kova, Wrightsoft), hardware sales (structural connectors and plates through retail and dealer channels), capital equipment sales (saws, stackers, presses, lasers to component plants), and professional services (MiTek TrueNorth Consulting, sealed engineering, design support). The company holds operations in Chesterfield and St. Charles, Missouri (engineering headquarters and automation manufacturing), Minneapolis, Minnesota (builder products customer service), and Worcester, UK (EMEA headquarters completed in March 2026), with engineering staff licensed in all U.S. states and Canadian provinces. Founded in 1932 and now wholly owned by Berkshire Hathaway, MiTek competes on the breadth of its integrated design-to-manufacturing-to-build platform rather than on any single product line.

Partnerships

One partnership is on record.

• Synectics SolutionscoreTechnology or Integration · 20 April 2026Mitek and Synectics Solutions formed a partnership to help UK insurers detect fraud earlier in digital insurance applications by combining identity verification technology with fraud orchestration and cross-sector risk intelligence. The integration aims to address the £1 billion in fraudulent claims insurers detect annually while helping them meet FCA Consumer Duty requirements without adding friction for legitimate customers. The collaboration specifically targets 'thin-file' applicants with limited financial histories.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves7 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Autodesk (Revit): Industry-standard BIM platform across AEC; overlaps with MiTek Structure in structural design workflows and represents both a competitor and complementary tool in the design-to-manufacturing chain.
• Hilti: Global supplier of fastening, anchoring, and construction tools for professional builders; comparable in builder channels and engineered fastening products though broader and tool-focused.
• Stanley Black & Decker: Major tool and fastening manufacturer supplying builders through home-center and pro channels; overlaps with MiTek in fasteners and builder hardware, with much wider product breadth.
• ITW (Illinois Tool Works — Construction Products): Diversified manufacturer with construction-focused segments producing fasteners, anchors, and engineered components; broader portfolio but directly comparable products to MiTek's connector and fastener lines.

Direct peers

• Eagle Metal Products: Manufacturer of connector plates, truss plates, and related metal components used in roof and floor trusses; directly comparable to MiTek's connector plate and engineered products portfolio serving component manufacturers.
• Trimble (Tekla Structures): Tekla provides 3D BIM structural detailing software for steel and concrete, comparable to MiTek Structure's 3D BIM modeling for trusses and wall panels serving component manufacturers and structural engineers.
• Simpson Strong-Tie: Direct competitor to MiTek's structural connector and fastener business, serving residential and commercial builders with engineered connectors, anchors, and fastening systems through similar dealer and home-center channels.

Regional players

• Pinnacle Building Solutions: Truss and wall panel manufacturer using MiTek-style design and automation systems; representative of the component-manufacturer customer base MiTek serves rather than a competitor.
• Boise Cascade (Building Products Distribution): Major North American manufacturer and distributor of engineered wood products and building materials; a key MiTek customer/partner profile through its component-manufacturing and LBM distribution relationships.

Emerging players

• Procore Technologies: Construction management and project software platform; adjacent rather than direct, competing for builder software spend that MiTek targets with Kova, Array, Blackpoint, and Deck Designer.
