Enterprise software is in the midst of a revolution. The world is shifting from “systems of record” to “systems of automation” - LLM powered agents and orchestrators that perform complex business tasks on behalf of and in concert with humans, with increasing levels of autonomy.
The opportunity for AI agents is dramatically larger than the opportunity for pure software; businesses spend orders of magnitude more on labor than on traditional forms of software. Every major vertical will begin to adopt AI labor, and we believe the most important companies of the AI revolution will be the ones that lead this shift.
**Vooma’s mission is to build the AI Agent for America’s $800+ BN trucking industry.**
Everything we touch in the physical world is moved on a truck - it’s the backbone of the US economy. Yet logistics today is still extremely manual, which makes it one of the hungriest industries for the shift toward AI Agents.
Vooma is backed by top-tier investors and CEOs, founders and executives from Nolan, Arrive, MoLo, NFI, Convoy, Uber Freight, Motive, Loop, OTR Capital, Project44, Trucker Tools and more. We have enterprise contracts with many of the largest freight businesses in the US.
This is a rare opportunity for you to join a talented and experienced team at the ground level to build a transformational company for a critical industry.
