"Build the Future of Autonomous Logistics"
French startup developing autonomous electric yard tractors and fleet software for driverless trailer movements in logistics and industrial sites.
ex9 is a French technology startup founded in 2021 by Ksenia Duarte (CEO) and Enzo Salvatore (CTO), headquartered in Evry-Courcouronnes (Essonne), France. The company develops autonomous technology for electric yard tractors and the software ecosystem enabling safe, reliable, and progressive automation of trailer movements in logistics and industrial sites. ex9 offers a full-stack Transport-as-a-Service (TaaS) solution comprising autonomous all-electric yard tractors, fleet management software, and a remote monitoring and control room. The autonomous tractor system uses AI-based navigation and computer vision for obstacle detection, real-time yard mapping, and complex maneuvers including forward and reverse movements and autonomous trailer coupling.
The company targets logistics hubs, distribution centers, manufacturing plants, and ports where yard tractors shuttle trailers, containers, swap bodies, and pallets within closed perimeters. Early deployments have demonstrated reductions in operational costs of up to 30% and CO2 emission cuts of over 90% compared with diesel-powered yard trucks. ex9 received the Special European Startup Prize for Mobility from the French Ministry of Transport and has been accepted into the Supernovas and D2XCEL programs supported by EIT Urban Mobility, the CO.LAB/Gener8tor Sustainable Mobility cohort in the USA, and Orange's Femmes Entrepreneuses program. The company closed a pre-seed funding round in early 2025 and has a commercial project with DHL. ex9 is hiring C++ engineers and embedded systems engineers for its robotics software stack.
