COGOS

COGOS Technologies Private Limited operates as a technology-driven logistics platform focused on the intra-city transportation market in India. Founded in Bengaluru in 2016 by Prasad Sreeram and Dr. Rama Mohan Katta, the company was established to address the fragmented and unorganized nature of city-based logistics. Prasad Sreeram, the CEO, previously worked at San Francisco-based Prysm Systems, while Dr. Rama Mohan Katta serves as the COO.

The company's core business is an AI-enabled marketplace that connects shippers with a network of truck owners for intra-city freight needs, including first-mile, mid-mile, and last-mile services. This digital platform automates workflows and optimizes processes, aiming to reduce operating costs for its clients. Revenue is primarily generated from goods transportation services. The platform's technology incorporates integrated advanced sensors, IoT, and AI/ML-based analytics to offer features like live tracking, dynamic route planning, digital trip sheets, and automated invoicing. This provides clients with real-time visibility and control over their shipments.

COGOS serves a diverse client base across industries such as e-commerce, retail, FMCG, manufacturing, and pharmaceuticals. A notable initiative includes the integration of electric vehicles (EVs) into its fleet through partnerships with OEMs like Mahindra & Mahindra and Piaggio, promoting sustainable logistics. The company has secured a total of $4.25 million in funding over 10 rounds from investors including Transworld Group, Worldquant Ventures, and Indian Angel Network.
