Co-Founder & CEO

The Opportunity

FutureSight is seeking a Co-Founder & CEO to lead HawkAI, an enterprise AI venture currently in development at our studio. This is a co-founder partnership offering meaningful founder equity, rather than a salaried executive role.

HawkAI deploys always-on, multi-channel "AI workers" that autonomously manage high-volume freight communications across calls, texts, and emails. The platform integrates directly with core freight systems—including TMS, load boards, and broker/carrier databases—to handle track-and-trace calls, appointment scheduling, carrier rate negotiation, proof-of-delivery capture, and shipment status updates end-to-end. Rather than acting as a point tool layered on top of existing systems, HawkAI is designed to operate as the always-on communication layer for logistics teams, autonomously resolving 90%+ of routine communications and escalating only exceptions to human staff.

We are now seeking the founder to lead this venture from this stage.

Market Context

The US logistics BPO market for outsourced communications is approximately $26B, representing a major automation opportunity in a labor-intensive industry. The target market includes approximately 150,000 US freight forwarders, 3PLs, and warehouses, with tiered subscription pricing yielding a $1.5B annual TAM. Mid-sized US brokerages handle thousands of daily calls, often resulting in missed follow-ups that contribute to OTIF penalties and costly delays. Early customers deploying AI communication assistants report approximately 33% lower operating costs and significantly faster call resolution. Additionally, AI supply chain software is growing at approximately 23% CAGR globally from 2025–2031, with North America seeing 30–45% annual growth in AI-driven logistics spend.
