# cargo.one

> cargo.one is an AI-native operating system for multimodal freight logistics. Founded in 2017 in Berlin, Germany, by Moritz Claussen, Oliver Neumann, and Mike Rötgers, cargo.one provides a unified platform where freight forwarders and cargo carriers can search, compare, quote, and book air and ocean freight capacity. The platform integrates rate data from 76+ airlines, 30+ ocean carriers, and dozens of GSAs, serving 25,000+ users across 134 countries. cargo.one is backed by Bessemer Venture Partners, Index Ventures, Creandum, Point Nine Capital, Next47, and Lufthansa Cargo, with over $80M in total funding.

In March 2026, cargo.one acquired ocean rate platform Cargofive (Lisbon-based, founded 2018), unifying air and ocean freight data into a single platform and launching the industry's first AI-native operating system for multimodal freight. The acquisition added connections to the top 10 ocean carriers and ocean rates spanning 4 million trade lanes.

cargo.one serves two primary customer segments: freight forwarders (from SMBs to the majority of the Top 20 global forwarders) and cargo carriers/airlines. The platform combines structured multimodal rate data, agentic AI workflows, RAG-based knowledge retrieval, and supervision layers into a single workspace. It supports MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers for agent-to-agent and system-to-system interoperability.
