ALERO LABS
About

Built from inside the industry.

The future of enterprise software is not another web application. It is autonomous, local, and accountable. We build it for the industries we came from.

The first generation of software digitized manual processes. The second moved them to the cloud. We are building the third: software that performs the work.

Supply chains and B2B operations are still buried in manual data entry: parsing PDFs, cross-referencing market rates, mapping transit, texting drivers, updating the system of record. Most vendors answer that with a better dashboard.

We answer it with local agents that do the parsing, the cross-referencing, and the communicating, and then put a person one click from approving the result. We replace software users with software operators.

01Latency is unacceptable.Inference happens at the edge, next to the data, in milliseconds.
02Privacy is absolute.No data uploads to public cloud LLMs. Ever. It is a rule, not a setting.
03Specialists beat generalists.Smaller, tuned models outperform bloated foundation models on your work.
The founder

Jon Nelson

Founder · 20 years in freight brokerage technology

Jon was part of the original team that built Navisphere at C.H. Robinson from its inception, serving as the liaison between IT and the business. He led the global rollout of the TMS across Europe and India, and went on to create the international division's automation team after solo-developing the initial proof of concept, managing a development team in Chennai.

Today, Jon serves as VP and Head of IT at StoneArch Logistics, where he runs everything from day-to-day operations, software, hardware, and networking, to the larger strategic initiatives: digital transformation, AI integration, and the long-term technology vision for the company.

AleroLabs exists because Jon saw the same problems for two decades, manual data entry, disconnected systems, and vendor lock-in, and decided to build the tools he wished existed. Not from an outside tech company guessing at logistics. From inside the industry.

Everything below runs on the same local-first stack. Some are products, some are research. All of them are live.
