A team you can actually talk to
Independent since 2003. We build AI products for Australian logistics — not slide decks about them.
Our story
We started Zero Footprint in 2003 with a simple thesis: the people who build your product should be the same people you talk to. No handoffs. No layers of management between you and the people doing the work.
Over 20 years and 170+ products, that hasn’t changed. We’re a senior-led team based in Melbourne. We’ve built enterprise platforms, mobile apps, AI products, and system integrations across logistics, fintech, health, and government.
Today we’re focused on one thing: helping Australian logistics operators modernise with AI. Carriers, 3PLs, warehouse operators, and freight forwarders — mid-market companies that need purpose-built solutions, not generic platforms or overpriced strategy decks.
The mid-market has nobody
Large operators have large consultancies. Small operators have generic platforms. Mid-market logistics companies fall through the gap.
Enterprise
Served by: Large consultancies
$500K+ engagements, 12-month timelines
SME
Served by: Off-the-shelf platforms
Standard features, works for simple operations
Mid-Market
Served by: Nobody well
Too complex for generic software, too practical for expensive consultants
We fill that gap. Senior people, realistic budgets, solutions that work with your existing systems.
How we're different
Same people, start to finish
The team you meet at scoping is the team that builds, tests, and supports your product.
We build, not just advise
No 200-page strategy docs. We deliver working software you can use.
Your systems, not ours
We integrate with your TMS, WMS, and ERP. No rip-and-replace.
Owner-operated
No corporate overhead on your invoice. Direct access to decision-makers.
Start small, prove value
$40K first project, not $400K. Prove ROI before committing to more.
Melbourne-based
On-site when you need us. Same timezone, same business culture.
Logistics AI. That’s our focus.
We’ve deliberately narrowed our focus to Australian logistics because the industry needs it most. Mandatory emissions reporting, legacy systems, labour shortages, and rising customer expectations are all hitting at once. We build the AI tools that help operators keep up.
