AI Copilot for Shippers, Carriers and Brokers

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

We are building an AI agent that automates workflows in logistics. Our product parses inbound emails, documents, and spreadsheets from logistics vendors and syncs that data with their systems of record like ERPs and spreadsheets. This reduces manual work and errors for shippers, carriers, and brokers.

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

We live and work in San Francisco, CA, and the company would remain based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where we all currently live and work. Being in the center of tech and logistics innovation helps us build the right product and connect to early users and partners.
