TL;DR: AI-powered truck management software to automate back-office operations for trucking companies.

The Problem and Solution:
Trucking has always been a mission critical industry, with nearly 70% of all US goods hauled via trucks, resulting in a need for continuous operations. This results in an industry that hasn’t paused for a tech update in years; in my time in the industry, I saw dozens of offices running on pen and paper or excel spreadsheets, documents being sent in WhatsApp group chats connected to printers, and I myself had 3 phones all on hold menus with different people. And even the largest of companies today navigate a maze of outdated, poorly integrated point-solutions.
So, alongside Anthony and Sam, I decided to build a product that rectifies those problems. With Hemut’s software, you can replace pen and paper scribbles with intuitive oversight of even national level fleets, replace the WhatsApp group chats and manual data entry with AI document parsing, and eliminate the need for 3 phones with AI agents to automate inbound/outbound calls. With Hemut, trucking companies can execute every step of the trucking workflow—from finding and booking a shipment, driver communication, and logging every last dollar—all on one platform, with efficiency never seen before.
The Story:
At 16 years old, I got kicked out of my home and faced homelessness, working 100-hour weeks at a motel where I met a truck driver who I eventually helped file paperwork for. Siezing the opportunity, I also helped file paperwork for his friends too, eventually saving enough money to start dispatching trucks and put a roof over my head.
Fast forward 6 years to the end of 2024, I realized that voice AI would eventually be capable enough to automate a lot of the bottlenecks I encountered during my time in the logistics industry.
