ParcelLab is a post-purchase experience platform for e-commerce, covering shipment tracking and communications. Raised $112M+, Munich, Germany.
ParcelLab was founded in 2015 in Munich, Germany and raised over $112M to build a post-purchase experience platform that helps e-commerce brands and retailers own the customer touchpoints between order confirmation and delivery. The company recognized that most brands cede this critical period to carrier-branded tracking pages and generic notification emails, missing the opportunity to reinforce brand identity, cross-sell, and build loyalty during a time when customers are highly engaged and checking their order status frequently.\n\nThe ParcelLab platform intercepts carrier tracking data from hundreds of global carriers and uses it to power branded order status pages, proactive shipping notifications via email and SMS, and automated communications for exceptions like delays or missing packages. Brands configure the entire post-purchase experience within ParcelLab, replacing generic carrier pages with a branded experience that keeps customers on the merchant's owned channels rather than redirecting them to third-party carrier websites.\n\nParcelLab serves large enterprise and mid-market retailers globally, with particular strength in European markets and expanding presence in North America following its US expansion. The company competes against Narvar, AfterShip, and Shipup in the post-purchase experience category, differentiating through its enterprise depth, the breadth of its carrier integrations covering 350+ carriers, and its returns experience product that extends the branded experience to the returns journey.
Indoor vertical farming company using AI-optimized growing systems. San Francisco, CA. Raised $940M+ including $400M from SoftBank. Partners with Walmart for US farms.
Plenty is a San Francisco-based indoor vertical farming company that uses AI, machine learning, and robotics to grow leafy greens and other produce in controlled indoor environments. The company has raised over $940 million from investors including SoftBank Vision Fund, which invested $200 million in 2017, and has positioned itself as the technology leader in data-driven indoor agriculture.\n\nPlenty's farms use precisely controlled light, temperature, humidity, and nutrient conditions to grow crops that are free from pesticides, use 99% less land, and consume significantly less water than conventional field agriculture. The company's AI systems continuously optimize growing conditions based on sensor data, learning to improve yields and quality across crops and growing cycles.\n\nIn 2022, Plenty announced a landmark partnership with Walmart to supply leafy greens from a new large-scale facility in Compton, California. This partnership provided both a major commercial anchor and significant additional funding from Walmart, validating Plenty's technology and business model at scale. The company also operates a dedicated strawberry R&D partnership with Driscoll's, the world's largest berry company, demonstrating the platform's potential beyond leafy greens.
