Our take

Last-mile delivery is a tricky business, with customers eager for their packages, but shippers not too keen to pay a premium for speed. So Jitsu has stepped in, giving brands the opportunity to ship fast, affordably.

Jitsu uses purpose-built technology and AI-powered routing to find efficient delivery routes and vehicles. Customers get real-time tracking and updates, while drivers have tools to manage routes, communicate with customers and provide proof of delivery. In short, Jitsu is making the final stretch of delivery feel less like a black hole and more like a well-oiled machine.

And its numbers suggest this approach is working too. With the company claiming it has a more than 99% on-time delivery rate, operating seven days a week across 23 of the 25 largest US metro areas. On top of this, its achieved 144% net revenue retention. With this momentum, the company is focused on responsible growth and expanding its reach, while continuing to improve its technology and sustainability.
