"The era of scaling a parcel delivery operation by throwing people at the problem is over. Manual labour is a tax on every parcel you ship. We are building the autonomous workforce for the future of parcel delivery, where networks run on intelligence, not headcount. This funding from leaders who have lived this pain is the ultimate confirmation of the industry’s urgent need for this change."

The AI-native RegTech startup has secured pre-seed funding to accelerate product innovation, integrations, and team growth.

Everything we do is focused on solving 95% of the problem that begins after an alert is triggered."
