About

5U AI is a Munich, Germany-based startup building multi-agent AI workers for freight forwarders, automating tasks including quoting, bookings, shipment tracking, invoice reconciliation, data entry, and routine administration across air, sea, and road freight 12. The platform’s Context Layer captures the reasoning behind each freight decision, helping teams build knowledge over time rather than automating isolated tasks 12. Founded in 2025 by Technical University of Munich graduates Yagiz Abik (CEO) and Fehmi Şener, the company announced a $3.2 million pre-seed round on 2026-07-28, led by London-based Emerge Capital (a $75 million pre-seed fund focused on future-of-work and human capital) with participation from senior logistics executives from DHL, GEODIS, DSV, Maersk, and Ceva Logistics 123. Proceeds will accelerate product development and go-to-market across Europe 1.
