Happy Robot says its agents serve 9 of the top 10 U.S. freight brokers and tackle enterprise coordination at DHL.
Happy Robot founders Pablo Palafox and Luis Paarup trace their start in logistics to the challenge of tracking olive-oil shipments and the promise of voice AI. The company built its own agent infrastructure and negotiation guardrails, and now serves 9 of the top 10 U.S. freight brokers; at DHL, it has deployed more than 40 agents across 80 countries. The founders describe workflows that coordinate shipment updates across websites, email, and phone, as well as campaigns making 20,000 to 50,000 daily calls to collect parcel duties. Forward-deployed engineers learn each customer’s operations and feed that knowledge into the product. Happy Robot’s Twin connects business records and agent-created context, which the founders say compounds as agents execute work. Their pyramid model starts with repeatable tasks and aims toward strategic decisions, while the broader opportunity is enterprise coordination across industries. They also emphasize natural, transparent voice interactions that free employees to focus on customer relationships.
