Our Core Values
1
Customer Obsession
We're customer obsessed. We're in this together because we understand your pain. We're small wholesalers ourselves. We faced these problems of lack of capital, poor quality storage & high delivery costs. So we created Logistify AI to fix these problems for small wholesalers, small manufacturers & small distributors like us.
2
Trust & Safety
The safety of your inventory & warehouses is our priority. We've strived to create a foundation of trust. Wholesalers can visit our micro-warehouses & get to know us before sending inventory. We cover every booking with inventory damage protection. Our micro-warehouses are clean, well ventilated, well lighted, & secure.
3
Transparency
We understand the importance of transparency to our community. That's why we display all the charges that make up your total pricing -- including maintenance fees, utilities & service fees. Wholesalers understand where all their charges are coming from. There are no hidden fees.
Our Story
From 2000 - 2019
Daniel Emaasit, Tobias Tukei & their siblings grow up helping their parents manage the family warehouse & farm in rural Uganda. For many years their parents struggle to maintain constant income from the warehouse. Demand for storage is seasonal & the warehouse is under utilized. Daniel & Tobias go off to college determined to find a solution to help their parents. Tobias becomes a professional logistics & supply chain manager in Uganda while Daniel becomes a Data Scientist in Washington DC.
Late June
During his PhD in the USA, Daniel stumbles upon an article envisioning the future of logistics & supply chain management. One of the topics is on-demand warehousing. Daniel shares the article with Tobias to get his professional opinion. Tobias is amazed at the potential of on-demaning warehousing to solve the warehousing crisis for their family & many other people. The idea for a trusted marketplace of warehouses is born. They call it Logistify AI.
Early July
Daniel registers Logistify AI in Estonia using the e-residency program. They enroll into Y Combinator Startup School. Daniel starts writing code for the platform. Daniel emails Stripe CEO begging to be included in Stripe Estonia Limited Pilot. He accepts (Thanks Patrick!). The MVP is quitely launched. Daniel & Tobias begin conducting user interviews & manually recruit a few high expectation customers (HXC). They work towards Product/Market fit. Their first customer is their parent's warehouse.
