We invested in Trainsit: AI-powered rail logistics for a more efficient supply chain

At Blitzscaling Ventures, we invest in startups that modernize large, overlooked industries with software and AI. Trainsit is tackling that with freight. While trucking dominates mindshare, rail remains one of the most cost-efficient and lower-emission ways to move goods, yet it has historically been difficult to access and coordinate across fragmented networks.

Trainsit is led by Mark Supinski, who is solving a problem he experienced firsthand while at Google shipping physical Android phones. Using rail was challenging, and he set out to solve that problem not just for himself, but for all companies. We love seeing passionate founders take on a mission rooted in lived experience.

Trainsit is building the software layer that makes rail freight easier to use. The company brings together scheduling, pricing, routing, shipment coordination, tracking, and carbon visibility into a more unified experience for shippers. In plain terms, they are helping businesses tap into rail without having to navigate its operational complexity on their own.

Trainsit simplifies that complexity into a more unified software layer, making rail a more practical option in modern freight logistics. We are excited to back Trainsit as they bring greater usability and coordination to freight rail.
