## How DEPLOY assessed this

This figure appears to aggregate multiple companies (Aurora, Bot Auto, Kodiak). Bot Auto's own fleet size is not confirmed. The 200-truck figure for the industry may be plausible but is not attributable to Bot Auto alone. https://www.axios.com/2026/04/30/bot-auto-delivers-first-freight-load-with-no-one-in-the-cab
