Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Uber pool for corporate trucking fleets

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

We built a platform that connects corporate trucking fleets to share loads and optimize their freight routes, similar to Uber Pool but for trucks. Our product helps reduce empty miles, lower costs, and improve asset utilization for large fleet operators.

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

We live in San Francisco, CA, and the company will stay based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where we both live and where most logistics tech innovation happens, which keeps us close to potential customers and partners.
