## GeneralMind Focuses on AI to Optimize Supply Chains Berlin-based startup GeneralMind has announced a $12 million funding round. The company is developing an AI-based system to automate operational and coordination tasks within supply chains. GeneralMind's AI Autopilot system is designed to automate repetitive tasks at supply chain handover points, managing workflows across email, spreadsheets, and ERP systems. The goal is to reduce inefficiencies resulting from manual processes and disconnected systems. ## Investors and Future Goals The funding round was led by Lakestar, Leo Capital, LucidCapital, Heliad, and BOOOM, with participation from angel investors such as Alexander Kudlich, Jens Urbaniak, and Samir Sood. The funds raised will be used to scale GeneralMind's technology across Europe. According to Tushar Ahluwalia, founder and CEO of GeneralMind, many companies struggle to translate awareness of operational issues into effective execution. Ahluwalia's experience in the e-commerce sector led him to develop a solution that automates end-to-end processes via a human-supervised AI autopilot.
