Uzbek startup TheCarGo has attracted $110,000 in investments

The Uzbek startup TheCarGo has raised $110,000 in a Seed funding round to further develop its AI platform designed to automate processes in the automotive logistics sector in the United States.

The funding round included $80,000 from Yoshlar Ventures, $10,000 from a16z venture scout Yasin Ehsan, and $20,000 from a local private investor.

The company is developing a digital platform for automotive brokerage firms in the US, integrating key operational processes into a single system. The company is also creating AI agents capable of making and receiving calls, responding to customer messages, and assisting with organizing freight bookings.

The project idea was developed by founder and CEO Ziyobek Turdiev based on his experience working in the American trucking industry. Previously, he worked as a broker and then managed two companies in the US, where he encountered fragmented tools and a high level of manual operations. Co-founder and CTO Bakhtiyor Ergashev leads the technical side of the project.

TheCarGo acquired its first paying customer in March 2025. Currently, ten brokerage firms in the US market are using the platform.

The solution is integrated with Central Dispatch and Super Dispatch systems used in the industry. The startup also received cloud credits from AWS and a grant from ElevenLabs to develop voice-based AI agents.

The raised funds will be directed toward launching the first AI agents, further product development, expanding the customer base, and growing the team. Over the next six to eight months, the company plans to raise an additional investment round to scale its business in the US market.

According to founder and CEO Ziyobek Turdiev, the company aims to demonstrate that a technology startup founded in Uzbekistan can compete in one of the most demanding markets in the world by automating automotive brokerage processes using AI solutions.
