A majority of this year’s winners (59%) describe themselves as being in the artificial intelligence (AI) category, with AI-powered automation coming in at No. 2 (55% vs. last year’s 45%).
“The logistics industry faces many challenges that affect efficiency, transparency and cost. Many of today’s startups are addressing these challenges with innovative solutions that are transforming the supply chain. This award is designed to showcase those startups making a difference in the supply chain space,” says Marina Mayer, editor-in-chief of Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain Executive.

This architecture helps enterprise transportation teams modernize without the disruption of big-bang replacements; supporting phased migrations from legacy TMS environments while maintaining business continuity.
“Being named a Top Tech Startup is meaningful because it recognizes the problems our customers are asking us to solve every day,” said Danielle Prigge, Chief Commercial Officer at Mastery Logistics Systems. “Our teams are working alongside some of the largest and most complex transportation organizations to replace legacy systems with a unified, cloud-native platform that actually reflects how freight moves today. This award reinforces our belief that modern supply chains deserve modern tools—ones that are API-first, data-rich, and intuitive for the people who rely on them.”
MasterMind is used by enterprise carriers, brokers and private fleets to orchestrate end-to-end transportation workflows—from tender to settlement—while supporting embedded optimization, automation and network-wide collaboration. By consolidating planning, execution and analytics in one system, Mastery helps customers reduce manual work, improve asset utilization and make better, faster decisions in volatile markets.
