Gatik AI

Gatik AI Inc. is a pioneering company specializing in autonomous middle-mile logistics, focusing on Level 4 autonomous trucking technology to optimize short-haul, business-to-business freight routes. Founded in 2017 by Gautam Narang, Arjun Narang, and Apeksha Kumavat, the company is headquartered in Mountain View, California, with additional offices across the United States and Canada, including Dallas-Fort Worth, Phoenix, Arkansas, and Toronto. Gatik is dedicated to transforming B2B supply chains by enabling safe, consistent, and high-frequency freight movement primarily between distribution centers, fulfillment centers, and retail locations.

The company’s approach centers on structured autonomy, operating trucks on known, repeatable routes to maximize safety and vehicle performance. This method limits the occurrence of unusual events and significantly shortens validation times, facilitating rapid scaling without compromising safety. Gatik’s trucks are designed to be fully autonomous with capabilities in both highway and urban environments, serving as an integrated solution combining hardware and software for seamless logistics operation.

Gatik has developed strong partnerships with industry leaders such as Walmart, Isuzu Motors, NVIDIA, Cummins, Ryder, and Goodyear. Notably, in 2021, Gatik launched the world’s first driverless commercial transportation service with Walmart, and their autonomous trucks are now deployed across multiple regions including Texas, Arkansas, Arizona, and Ontario, Canada. The company also collaborates closely with government bodies and local communities to ensure stakeholder engagement and regulatory compliance.

The firm continues to innovate in autonomous trucking by mass-producing SAE Level 4 production-ready trucks and following industry-first safety assessment frameworks. Gatik’s mission is to revolutionize the logistics industry by providing reliable, scalable, and safe autonomous middle-mile delivery solutions that improve operational efficiencies for Fortune 500 retailers and other commercial customers.

Gatik’s vision is supported by its commitment to safety, technological advancement, and meaningful collaboration with key stakeholders to drive the future of autonomous freight transportation.
