About Freight Tiger:
Freight Tiger is transforming India's fragmented logistics sector, where disconnected systems, blind spots in freight transactions, and manual processes create massive inefficiencies in trade. Freight Tiger’s AI-powered solutions drive speed and efficiency in freight movement across India's consumer goods and services economy through something fundamentally different: the first-ever knowledge graph of freight in the country.
Unlike traditional logistics platforms that simply digitize paperwork, Freight Tiger’s technology creates an intelligent network that learns and improves with every transaction. Here's how:
- AI-powered software suite connects historically siloed functions - from procurement to final freight settlement - creating a single source of truth for every shipment.
- Intelligent marketplace doesn't just match supply with logistics service providers; it learns from every transaction to predict future capacity needs, optimize routes, and prevent delays before they happen.
Together, they create a self-learning, interconnected system. This approach is already transforming Indian logistics. Today, we process 5% of India's total freight movement - connecting 450+ shippers with 2,600+ logistics providers across 140,000+ locations.
By 2028, the company will handle 20% of India's freight - not just moving goods more efficiently, but building the digital infrastructure for India's next wave of economic growth.
