QuickLoadz, with a valuation of $12 million, is raising funds on Republic. The company makes smartphone-controlled robotic trailers for faster, safer, and easier shipping. The hardware consists of Wi-Fi-enabled and computer-controlled trailers that drivers operate using their smartphones and can load or unload 60,000 pounds of merchandise in less than three minutes. QuickLoadz solves final-mile distribution problems faced by companies like Amazon. Sean Jones and Bridget Liar founded QuickLoadz in April 2013. The current crowdfunding campaign has a minimum target of $25,000 and a maximum target of $1,070,000. The campaign proceeds will be used to scale production and add sales and marketing staff.
