Leta AI

Leta AI is a venture-capital backed technology company founded in 2022 in Nairobi, Kenya, that builds logistics solutions to automate and optimize the movement of goods in Africa. Driven by the mission to lower transport costs for African businesses, Leta leverages AI to optimize delivery routes, track shipments in real time, and streamline supply chain payments, thus making logistics cheaper and more efficient for its clients. The platform has already powered millions of deliveries and managed thousands of vehicles, helping marketplaces, retailers, and distributors move products reliably.

Through its innovative load and route optimization technology, Leta AI helps businesses reduce costs and improve delivery efficiency by intelligently matching freight with available vehicles and leveraging historic order trends for prediction and planning. The platform integrates with ERP and OMS systems, pulling in live data for seamless logistics operation. With over 2.5 million deliveries and partnerships with brands like KFC and EABL, Leta is rapidly scaling across Kenya, Nigeria, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.

Recent funding rounds from Speedinvest, Google Africa Investment Fund, and Equator VC have raised $5 million to expand Leta’s product offering and further its mission to become Africa’s premier logistics technology platform. Leta’s experienced team, including founder Nick Joshi and CTO Kip Maritim, is focused on empowering more businesses through technology-driven supply chain solutions designed for the unique logistics challenges of Africa.
