Package.ai revolutionizes big-box retail by unifying last-mile delivery operations and customer engagement on a single comprehensive AI-powered SaaS platform
Package.ai, an AI-based platform that revolutionizes customer engagement and last-mile logistics for big-box retailers and service providers, announced a minority growth investment led by Susquehanna Growth Equity (SGE), an entrepreneur-centric growth equity firm. SGE’s investment marks the first institutional fundraise for Package.ai, which has been mostly bootstrapped since inception.
The funding round comes amid a unique paradigm shift for the broader retail sector underpinned by the advent of AI-enabled tools that are driving industry-wide modernization and customer standards as retailers across the globe increasingly seek ways to create a platform that combines an ‘Amazon-like’ customer engagement experience with an ‘Uber-like’ delivery experience. Package.ai has been transformational for home furnishing retailers and service providers that previously relied on legacy systems that placed logistics and customer service in separate silos across their business. By uniquely combining Gen-AI technology, last-mile intelligence and customer engagement data, Package.ai is pioneering retail’s pivot towards modernization as more and more brands seek to improve operational efficiency while providing humanlike services at scale with a more personalized customer experience from the website or store interactions through to the final step of the delivery process.

“We are excited to have found a vision-aligned partnership in SGE as we continue our mission of helping retailers modernize and enhance their operations with a customer-centric view,” said Ziv Fass, Co-founder and CEO of Package.ai. “The tech and retail industry is evolving from point solutions for last-mile management and customer engagement to a unified and specialized AI platform. This paradigm shift enables our customers to break the tradeoff between logistical efficiency and a quality customer experience to generate significant gains in customer satisfaction and loyalty. We look forward to collaborating with SGE, whose operational expertise and belief in our mission will be invaluable as Package.ai continues on its growth trajectory.”
“Package.ai is at the forefront of the AI revolution, and we are evolving the way in which retailers and home service providers operate and interact with their customers,” said Yoav Sadeh, Co-Founder and CTO of Package.ai. “We are constantly innovating our platform with custom AI capabilities and last-mile intelligence, and with these expanded capabilities, we are actively helping brands strengthen the relationships with their customers, who in turn become online advocates and repeat buyers.”
