Vilnius-based Traxlo, a platform transforming physical labour into verifiable tasks, has raised €1.6 million to expand its pay-per-task labour infrastructure across Europe, with launches underway in Czechia and Romania.
The capital was raised by venture capital fund Coinvest Capital, Bad Ideas Fund, Plug and Play, NGL, DEPO Ventures, along with participation from existing investors Iron Wolf Capital, Antler, among others.
“We’re not another gig or shift labour app. We’re building the labour infrastructure for the age of AI,” said Paul Vezelis, Co-founder and CEO of Traxlo. “If AI is automating knowledge work, Traxlo is standardising and distributing physical work at the same scale.”
Founded in 2020, Traxlo is developing a pay-per-task labour infrastructure for the AI era. It aims to replace traditional shift-based staffing with an outcome-based model, breaking physical work into standardised, measurable tasks – matched instantly to local workers via their tasku.app and soon orchestrated by its AI engine (tasku.ai), which will automate task creation and completion checks using LLM agents and computer vision.
“Traxlo not only addresses labour shortages in retail and logistics, but also drives a systemic-level shift in how short-term work is done,” said Viktorija Trimbel, Managing Director of Coinvest Capital. “It’s rare to see a product with such a solid foundation that is already delivering real value to all platform participants – from companies finding short-term workers to people finding jobs that fit their schedules – and showing strong potential for growth.”
In just three years, Traxlo started collaborations with 60% of the largest commerce players in Europe, including names like REWE Group, Zabka and others. Its marketplace has delivered over 300,000 physical tasks, ranging from shelf replenishment and product scanning to warehouse unloading and e-grocery picking.
The commpany outlines that each task is standardised, teachable in a dozen minutes, and executable by local workers or soon – robots.
The company’s model reportedly unlocks instant local labour in cities with staffing shortages with its maximum flexibility. Workers complete tasks on their terms and get paid weekly. Businesses buy guaranteed outcomes, not hourly presence. For local communities it has the potential to innovate the way people can earn predictable income while providing value to businesses.
With this round, Traxlo is doubling down on its strategy, expanding geo coverage and scaling. Future product layers include agentic AI features, doubling down on automation, and connecting real robot workers into the same marketplace of tasks.
