RockTruck moved 1.7 million last-mile deliveries with a fleet it mostly does not own - then sold 70% of the company to a gas giant. Here is how the collaborative model actually works.
Otonomi is a New York-based insurtech that sells parametric insurance for cargo delays and disruptions across air, ocean, and e-commerce parcel shipments. Instead of the traditional claims process, its platform uses AI/ML underwriting, real-time shipment tracking, and blockchain-backed settlement to quote in seconds and pay out automatically once a delay crosses a defined threshold - regardless of cause. Founded in 2021 by Yann Barbarroux and Jeremy Sutton, the company targets freight forwarders, shippers, and brokers moving time-critical goods such as pharmaceuticals, perishables, high-tech components, and automotive parts.
Parcel Perform is a Singapore-headquartered SaaS company that runs an AI-powered delivery experience platform for e-commerce brands, marketplaces and retailers. By standardizing shipment data across more than 1,100 carriers worldwide, it lets merchants track parcels in real time, predict delivery dates, send branded notifications, automate returns and optimize carrier costs - turning fragmented post-purchase logistics into a single, actionable data foundation now used to improve visibility on AI shopping assistants like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini.
VersaFleet is a Singapore-based transport management software (TMS) company that helps businesses automate and optimise last-mile delivery. Its cloud SaaS handles route planning, dispatch, driver and vehicle assignment, electronic proof-of-delivery, real-time job tracking and automated customer notifications. Founded in 2012 by Shamir Rahim, the platform serves FMCG distributors, third-party logistics providers, waste-management operators and staff-transport companies across ASEAN, powering thousands of drivers for firms that deliver on behalf of Fortune 500 brands.
W-Locate is a Singapore-based location technology company that blends machine-to-machine (M2M) telematics, big data, cloud computing and location intelligence. Its two flagship platforms - FIND (Fleet Intelligent Dynamics), a cloud fleet-management system, and XimLoc, a patent-pending SIM-based positioning technology that locates any SIM device indoors or outdoors without relying solely on GPS - serve enterprises, mobile operators and governments across Asia. Founded in 2010 by Stevie Ooi, the company has raised roughly US$2M+ from TNF Ventures and RHB-OSK, and works with partners such as Tata Communications to deliver location services for construction, logistics, waste management and smart-city use cases.
Veyor is a cloud-based construction logistics platform - often called the 'Uber Eats of construction' - that digitizes how large building sites and facilities schedule deliveries, coordinate materials, manage loading docks and enforce site access and compliance. Founded in Sydney in 2017 and now expanding across the United States from Austin, Veyor connects contractors, suppliers, drivers and facility managers on a single live schedule to cut congestion, wait times and paperwork on complex projects.
Shipday is a cloud-based, AI-powered delivery management platform that lets small and medium-sized businesses - restaurants, grocers, pizzerias, florists, couriers and e-commerce sellers - run their own local deliveries without paying gig-economy commissions. It combines dispatch automation, route optimization, a driver mobile app, real-time branded tracking, proof of delivery and AI agents for customer communication, and connects to third-party fleets like DoorDash and Uber for overflow. Founded in 2020 and headquartered in Menlo Park, California, Shipday serves more than 6,000 businesses across 100+ countries and has powered over 30 million deliveries.
Image Navigation is a US-headquartered, Jerusalem-developed medical device company that builds IGI (Image Guided Implantology), a real-time surgical navigation and robotics system for dental implant surgery. It turns a pre-operative CT scan into a live 3D map of a patient's anatomy, tracks the drill with sub-millimeter accuracy, and adds a robotic autostop that shuts the drill off the instant it strays from the planned path - giving dentists the safety of robotics without a rigid robotic arm.
Blue Ocean Gear builds Smart Buoys - rugged, connected buoys that track the real-time location and movement of fishing and aquaculture gear deployed at sea. Using dual-band satellite and radio links feeding a cloud platform and mobile app, the company helps commercial fishers find lost gear faster, spot problems early, cut fuel-burning search time, and reduce 'ghost gear' that fouls the ocean. Founded in 2015 and based in Sausalito, California, it serves wild-capture fisheries, aquaculture farms, and research institutions from New England to the South Pacific.
Onfleet is a San Francisco-based software company that builds a last-mile delivery management platform.
