Overview

  • Base10 Partners led the Series B, with participation from Andreessen Horowitz, Y Combinator, Tokio Marine, WaVe‑X and World Innovation Lab.
  • HappyRobot’s agents handle tasks such as rate negotiation, appointment booking, collections and status updates through phone, email and chat, integrating with TMS, ERP and CRM systems.
  • The company reports more than 70 enterprise customers, including DHL, Ryder, Flexport and Werner, and says revenue is up tenfold since its late‑2024 Series A.
  • New funding will go to hiring across product, on‑site deployment and sales teams, plus software improvements and an expanded assistant lineup.
  • HappyRobot did not disclose a valuation, though a source told Reuters the round priced the company near $500 million, as competition in logistics automation intensifies.
