By closing this round, Transmetrics will be at the forefront of this movement, offering state-of-the-art solutions that empower logistics planning and provide tangible value for our clients and the sector as a whole” said Asparuh Koev, Co-Founder and CEO of Transmetrics.

Hermann Hauser, EIC’s Fund Board member said: “We are happy to announce our investment in Transmetrics, a leading provider of AI-powered logistics planning software.

Transmetrics is well-known for its successful work with some of the leading logistics companies in the world, such as Kuehne+Nagel, Matson, DPDgroup, Gebrüder Weiss, and more. Transmetrics’ software aims to address extreme inefficiencies in logistics. For example, on average, trucks in the EU drive half-empty, wasting economic resources and creating unnecessary emissions, while logistics is responsible for 30% of the world’s carbon emissions from fuel combustion.

Today, logistics service providers are still planning their resources mainly in Excel, based on the experience and gut feeling of planners. Transmetrics’ software replaces manual planning with the next generation of AI-powered logistics planning that leverages predictive analytics and machine learning.
