Belgian logistics startup Vectrix raises €1.15M seed funding

The company’s AI platform automates transport order processing, helping logistics teams handle requests faster while improving data accuracy and workflow efficiency.

Antwerp-based Vectrix, an order entry platform for the logistics sector, has raised €1.15 million in a seed funding round led by RDY Ventures to expand into European markets, starting with Belgium’s neighbouring countries.

Logistics companies handle large volumes of transport requests each day, with administrative teams often manually entering order details into transport management systems. This repetitive process can take several minutes per request and leaves room for human error.

Founded in 2024 by Dimitri Allaert and Ben Selleslagh, Vectrix aims to address this challenge by using AI to automate the manual entry of transport orders. The platform reduces processing time from around eight minutes to approximately two minutes per order while also helping to minimise errors.

As the system processes more data, it continues to learn, enabling it to identify inconsistencies and suggest corrections, for example, when specific requirements such as temperature conditions for pharmaceutical transport are involved.

Ben Selleslagh, CTO at Vectrix, explained that operational workflows differ between transport companies and that customer agreements are often tailored to individual clients:

Vectrix’s AI understands each customer’s context, so it can complete missing information in a targeted way. The logistics employee always stays in control and can adjust where needed. That feedback loop helps the AI improve continuously. The efficiency gains help transport companies absorb the talent shortage, and new hires get up to speed faster, too.

The platform operates as a pre–transport management system (pre-TMS) layer within the IT infrastructure. It converts unstructured input, such as emails or data from ERP systems, into validated information ready for use in transport management systems.

Each automated decision remains transparent and is based on customer configurations, historical data, and defined operating procedures, allowing logistics teams to review and approve pre-filled transport orders through a single interface.

The new funding will support team expansion, European growth, and further product development, including deeper integrations with transport management systems.
