About Auger Auger is a pioneering venture to build the world's first true end-to-end supply chain operating system. Founded and led by Dave Clark, former CEO of the Amazon Consumer Business and backed by an initial $100M from Oak HC/FT, Auger is building a future where global supply chains operate with the simplicity of today’s most intuitive consumer technologies. Revolutionizing global supply chains with an AI-powered OS unifying data for seamless, real-time insights, and powerful automation. Our Solution Auger is creating a new solution for companies seeking better options. Auger’s core strength lies in its deep AI-powered automation, paired with a consumer-grade user experience. This combination allows operators to handle complex tasks through simple, familiar tools. Need real-time inventory insights for next week’s shipment? Just ask. Actionable data appears instantly, enabling swift decisions—no complex queries or training required. Why We’re Different Traditional supply chain management is fragmented, relying on incompatible systems and inefficient workarounds. Many companies are stuck with “Franken-software”—patched-together solutions that fail to communicate effectively. Auger is different. We integrate deeply with existing systems, use AI to automate routine processes, and deliver a cohesive user experience that feels intuitive and natural, letting your team focus on what matters: driving growth, innovation, and sustainability. A Human-Centered Approach Broken supply chains don’t just impact businesses—they affect people. Delays mean products don’t reach shelves, miscommunications lead to overtime and burnout, and inefficiencies drive up costs and contribute to a growing carbon footprint. We believe supply chain problems are human problems, and we’re here to solve them. At Auger, we’re on a mission to make global supply chains more efficient, more sustainable, and ultimately, better for everyone.

At Manifest: The Future of Supply Chain & Logistics where Kevin O'Marah and I walked on stage to club music for a reason: It’s time to change the beat. For too long, supply chain leaders have been drowning in dirty data—incomplete, inconsistent, and unreliable information that clogs decision-making, prevents usage of the latest technology and generally slows everything down. Data standards will not solve our problems. We need to change the beat to taking the data as it is and making it interoperable. Auger, will be the garbage disposal for supply chain data—taking the mess, breaking it down, and turning it into clean, semantically related and interoperable data. That data then can be used to power real-time intelligence fueling better decisions, faster execution, and better outcomes for all. We need to transform hope into data fueled strategy, and execute that strategy into reality—all while making the lives of the millions of people on the front lives of the supply chain better. Looking forward to being a much bigger participant at Manifest in 2026.
Every great journey starts with a bold vision...and color.
A sign of things to come. Seeing Auger go from an idea to a mission-driven company has been an incredible journey—but there’s something about getting the first sign up in our new offices that makes it feel even more real. This isn’t just a logo on the wall. It’s a symbol of the work we’re doing to transform supply chains with intelligence, automation, and speed. A reminder that we’re building something big, something that will redefine how the supply chain world operates. We’re just getting started!

Welcome to the Auger team Steve Block!
Auger is thrilled to welcome Steve Block as the Head of Public Sector Solutions, where he will drive government engagement, business development, and policy alignment to bring Auger’s cutting-edge AI-powered supply chain solutions to the public sector. With decades of experience in federal policy, logistics, and national security, Block will lead Auger’s efforts to expand into the public sector, ensuring that government agencies have the tools they need to keep critical supply chains resilient and running smoothly. “Auger is building the world’s first true end-to-end supply chain operating system powered by AI, and I could not be more excited to bring this capability to public sector customers. There is no mission more important than keeping our nation safe and efficient. With Auger’s platform, we will help bring resiliency, security, and stability, while supporting governments as they look to transform fragmented, reactive networks into intelligent, autonomous ecosystems—empowering orchestrated execution.” -Steve Block Block’s public sector roots run deep. He spent 15 years at the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), leading global counterterrorism intelligence efforts and serving as Deputy Director of Legislative Affairs, where he engaged directly with Congress on defense and intelligence policy. He began his career as an intelligence officer at NGA and later worked as a management consultant at IBM, advising on technology modernization. Block previously served as Global Director of Distribution and Fulfillment Solutions for Public Sector at Amazon, where he spearheaded logistics innovation for government clients, and led AWS’s federal policy strategy, shaping procurement, cybersecurity, and emerging technology policies in AI, quantum, and aerospace. With Block’s addition, Auger is further confirming its commitment to serving both the public and private sectors and to build a secure and robust platform from day one. His leadership will ensure Auger’s solutions seamlessly integrate with government agencies, enhancing logistics, security, and efficiency across federal, state, and defense operations.
