About Burt
We're building for the people that keep the world moving. Freight brokers and forwarders operate on razor-thin margins in a relationship-driven business — yet most of their teams spend the majority of their day on manual, repetitive work. We help freight brokers and forwarders build AI teammates that handle their repetitive, manual tasks so teams have time to focus on customers, carriers, and growing the business.
