Company
LogisticsOS
World's fastest route optimization engine
We build a route optimization engine and fleet dispatching algorithms offered as a SaaS API. Our product lets last-mile delivery companies optimize thousands of deliveries in seconds to offer same-day and next-hour delivery and increase profit per delivery by 15%. FedEx and USPS use our engine in production today.
We live in Ontario, CA, USA, and our team is distributed remote. After YC, the company will remain in Ontario and remote to keep access to talent and customers.
We chose Ontario because it is close to key logistics hubs and allows us to build a remote-first team. Being remote lets us hire the best engineers regardless of location.
