Pennsylvania-based Stack AV, a company developing and building autonomous trucking solutions, recently launched its autonomous trucking business.
The business will leverage the company’s self-driving technology to tackle supply chain challenges for its partners and their consumers, and improve the trucking industry’s efficiency and enhance safety.
Challenges include driver shortages, elevated emission levels, high operating costs, lagging efficiency in uptime per vehicle, and overarching safety concerns.
“As consumer consumption patterns evolve, businesses increasingly need AI-driven, intelligent, and reliable supply chains,” Bryan Salesky, Stack AV founder and CEO, said. “With our proprietary technology and expertise as well as the commitment from our long-term partner in SoftBank, we are confident we will revolutionize the trucking and freight industries by driving improvements in efficiency and safety and alleviating supply chain constraints for our customers, helping them reach their goals and advance their missions.”
SoftBank Group Corp. provided Stack AV with capital, resources, and deep expertise in artificial intelligence.
Stack AV employs 150 people at its headquarters and in 15 states via a remote-work/co-working collaboration model. The company’s technology is designed to maximize trucks’ uptime, optimize existing infrastructure and improve roadway safety with the goal of enabling smarter supply chains.
The company’s executives have more than seven decades of combined experience.
