Dublin-based AI startup, Axe, raises €1.5 million in pre-Seed funding led by Pitchdrive and including participation from Accel Scouts, Enterprise Ireland, and angel investors.
Axe builds AI agents that automate repetitive tasks for logistics teams, freeing them for higher-impact work and improving efficiency and cost savings.
Co-founded in 2024 by James McElroy and Dan Quill, Axe's AI agents handle tasks such as order entry, quoting, scheduling, and making phone calls for logistics operators.
The funding will support Axe's product development, team growth, and expansion into the U.S. market, with reported productivity improvements for logistics companies already using the platform.
