Who’s involved

Bot Autotechnology provider

American autonomous-trucking startup (founded 2023 in Houston by Xiaodi Hou, a [Tusimple](/companies/tusimple) co-founder and former CTO/CEO). In April 2026 it ran what it calls America's first fully humanless (no in-cab observer, no remote operator) commercial over-the-road truckload, a paid freight delivery from Houston to Dallas. It retrofits Freightliner Cascadia tractors and operates as its own motor carrier. Privately held (about $40M raised).
