Solving today’s restocking challenge

Consumer demand is rising sharply, making maintaining adequate stock levels a major ongoing challenge for retailers, especially in grocery. BrainOS® powers a new type of autonomous robot application — autonomous delivery tugs — that helps improve operational efficiency and increase productivity while easing the burden on employees. Key use cases for tug robots include:

 Icon

Restocking products

Accelerate the movement of inventory and goods from the backroom to store shelves efficiently with tug robots.

 Icon

Trash and recycling pickup

More easily move trash and recyclables on delivery tugs from the store floor to designated trash stations.

Mobile promotions

Use the delivery tug to safely promote merchandise around the store, creating more exposure.

Powering the future of in-store delivery

Traditional, manual approaches to hauling inventory and goods from the stockroom out to store shelves—the so-called “the last 500 feet”—is a laborious, time-consuming process. BrainOS-enabled delivery tugs automate and accelerate the movement of goods, even in crowded environments.

Improve on-shelf availability

BrainOS-powered delivery tugs can move up to 1,000 pounds of stock in a single trip versus humans who can typically pull just 350 to 500 pounds per trip at a much slower pace. The result: more goods out to the sales floor, faster with the help of autonomous robots.

Improve facility safety

Tug robots do the heavy pulling so employees don’t have to. This reduces wear and tear and on-the-job injuries that are costly to both employees and businesses.

Enhance staff productivity

Using autonomous mobile robots like delivery tugs to move stock, trash, and other materials within the store means managers can assign employees to higher value tasks like ensuring planogram compliance, sanitizing high-contact surfaces, managing customer flow, and assisting customers during peak shopping periods.

Get new operational insights

Key performance and proof-of-work metrics — such as how many inventory drops an autonomous robot has executed, to which departments, and their total operating time and distance — drive greater efficiency and strategic decision-making.

Leverage existing carts

Delivery tug robots use industry standard utility and stock carts without having to worry about buying new specialized equipment.
