Barcelona-based logistics startup Opereit has raised $2.5 million in a pre-seed funding round just weeks after launching its business.
The investment was led by Seedcamp and Yellow, the venture fund created by Glovo founders Oscar Pierre and Sacha Michaud. The round also attracted support from Baobab Ventures, Kima Ventures, Enzo Ventures, OPRTRS, Masia, and several international angel investors.
Founded in 2025, Opereit develops software that helps retailers and logistics companies find and recover money lost through transport errors. Its platform automatically checks shipping invoices, identifies missing or damaged deliveries, and manages claims with carriers.
The idea for the company came from founder Pablo Cousin’s experience at REVER, a Y Combinator-backed returns management platform. While working with retailers, he noticed that many businesses were losing money because transport issues were difficult to track and often went unnoticed.
According to Cousin, overcharged invoices, missing shipments, and delayed claims created a major financial burden for many companies. This led him to build a solution that could handle these tasks automatically.
Unlike many logistics tools that simply display data, Opereit’s platform takes action by detecting problems and starting the recovery process without requiring constant manual work. The company says businesses can begin using the system within 48 hours.
Several companies have already adopted the platform, including Amphora Logistics, fashion label Nude Project, and sustainable clothing brand Ecoalf.
Raquel Jiménez, Head of Operations and Customer Experience at Nude Project, said the platform has helped the company spot transport issues and process claims more quickly.
The new funding will be used to grow the business, expand its customer base, and further develop its technology.
As more logistics companies look for strategies to reduce costs and improve delivery, Opereit is aiming to simplify one of the industry's most overlooked challenges by helping businesses recover revenue that might otherwise be lost.
