Our take
In the complex landscape of global supply chains, outdated financial infrastructure and manual processes have created a significant challenge for businesses in the logistics sector. Legacy systems often rely on labor-intensive methods for recording crucial shipping documents, leading to poor auditing practices and a lack of a single, reliable "source of truth" for payment transactions.
Loop, an audit and payment platform, is actively addressing these challenges with its AI-driven approach to transportation financial data. The company's platform consolidates and analyzes information, providing real-time insights into costs, improving accuracy, and unlocking savings for its users.
In a 2023 milestone, Loop raised $35 million in a Series B funding round. This investment attests to the growing recognition of its value proposition, and its potential to transform the way money moves through the supply chain. With an expanding customer base (that in 2024 grew to include Saudi Arabia through a partnership with Mastercard) and over $3 billion in booked total payment volume to date, Loop is poised for further growth and innovation.
