Doorstep has raised $8.0M in seed funding to give delivery platforms a clearer picture of the last few feet of every order. The New York-based company makes a lightweight SDK that uses proprietary algorithms and sensor fusion to track entrances, elevators, floors, and drop-offs in real time while drivers go about their routes as usual.
Canaan Partners, Antler, Cercano Management, CASSIUS, and Kleiner Perkins Scout Sean Henry participated in the round. Doorstep says its indoor tracking is precise enough to prove exactly where a package was left - cutting service costs, settling disputes, and heading off fraudulent refund claims.
