About
Airspace operates a tracking platform for urgent deliveries where delays carry high consequences, such as medical transplants or aviation supply chains. Its system aims to replace manual coordination with automated visibility from order to delivery.
The company has scaled to nearly 500 staff, with its most recent funding round valuing it at late-stage. While headcount growth data is unavailable, its Series D suggests continued expansion in a niche logistics segment where reliability commands premium pricing.
Founders and leadership
Operations dominates the workforce with 67 employees, reflecting the hands-on nature of urgent logistics. Leadership appears lean given the company's stage, with no single function beyond ops exceeding 10% of headcount.
