What FleetWorks does

FleetWorks is rebuilding the $1 trillion freight marketplace with AI. Every year, companies spend over a trillion dollars moving freight across the U.S. - but the system for matching trucks with jobs is still slow, manual, and fragmented. FleetWorks is fixing that. We’re turning today’s chaotic freight market into a modern, intelligent marketplace - one where AI agents replace the endless phone calls, texts and emails and match jobs to trucks instantly.

AI enabled marketplace matching trucks with jobs

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built an AI-powered freight marketplace that matches shipping jobs with truck drivers instantly. Instead of the usual phone calls and fragmented emails, our AI agents automate the matching process across the U.S. freight system, making it faster and less manual for companies and trucking operators.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We are in San Francisco now and plan to keep the company based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where our team and network already are. It's the best place to access talent and investors for scaling AI and logistics marketplaces.
