About Lighthouz AI

Lighthouz AI is automating the back office accounting of freight brokers with freight-native AI agents. Our AI agents process messy document paperwork in accounting in seconds—not hours—by replacing manual data verification, extraction, & audits and brittle RPA. 

Our platform thrives in real-world document chaos—scanned and handwritten paperwork, and ambiguous emails—executing complex workflows automatically. The result: faster invoicing, quicker time-to-get-paid, fewer disputes, and 10x operational growth. 

We’re a Y Combinator S24 company, founded by a team with deep experience across AI, supply chain, and enterprise systems (Google, Georgia Tech, Progressive). At Lighthouz, we’re not just streamlining freight finance—we’re rebuilding it from the ground up.
