Waabi and Warrior Logistics partner on autonomous freight in Texas

Waabi and Warrior Logistics have announced a commercial partnership to transport customer freight using Waabi Driver-powered autonomous trucks between Dallas and Houston, Texas. Warrior has integrated a fleet of the vehicles into its logistics network, supporting recurring shipments across food and beverage, consumer goods and other freight categories.

The companies began commercial operations earlier this year. According to their announcement, the autonomous services have achieved 100% on-time collection and delivery, with zero safety incidents.

“Our customers want more capacity on our core lanes, and they want it to be consistent,” said Scott McFarlane, CEO of Warrior Logistics. “Our partnership with Waabi gives us the flexibility to deliver that.”

McFarlane said the autonomous trucks operate alongside professional drivers, adding capacity on routes that are less desirable for drivers. He added that the combination allows Warrior to accept more freight while keeping drivers on their preferred lanes.

Further network expansion planned

Over the coming year, the companies plan to jointly identify and develop additional routes across Warrior’s network. The announcement did not specify the locations or timing of these deployments.

Lior Ron, COO of Waabi, said Warrior had helped shape the technology during their collaboration. He described the partnership as a further step in bringing autonomous capacity into everyday customer operations.

Separately, Waabi recently began customer operations with Volvo Autonomous Solutions, starting with Warp Technology. The company also reported that commercial load volumes on its Dallas–Houston route have grown by more than 80% this year.

Waabi said it had also demonstrated its technology’s ability to operate across new routes and vehicle platforms without additional platform-specific training, a capability it describes as “zero-shot generalization.”
