Burq, founded in 2021, is a logistics technology company that applies artificial intelligence to last-mile delivery. Its core product, Pulse AI, is an orchestration layer that deploys specialized agents across the delivery lifecycle: reading real-time signals, detecting risks early, and triggering automated actions intended to protect on-time performance, cost efficiency and customer experience. The system unifies carriers, automation and exception handling into a single standardized workflow.
The company's technical work spans several domains, including AI agents, real-time signal processing, predictive risk detection, route optimization and batching, dispatch orchestration, automated exception handling, and logistics analytics and performance insights. These capabilities sit beneath an offering aimed at enterprise and high-growth delivery operators, orchestrating both in-house and third-party fleets and scaling across nationwide delivery coverage in the United States.
Burq's customers operate in grocery, floral, specialty retail, pharmacy and restaurant verticals. The company states a mission of making logistics intelligent, automated and reliable, and is backed by Village Global, whose limited partners include Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Reid Hoffman and Sara Blakely.
