Problem
Manufacturing and warehouse facilities face high labor costs and operational inefficiencies in palletizing, depalletizing, and case picking tasks. Traditional automation requires significant upfront capital investment and is often inflexible, unable to adapt to varying SKUs or short-term contracts, which deters many small- to medium-sized operations from automating.
Solution
Tutor Intelligence provides AI-powered robotic workers that automate palletizing, depalletizing, and case picking in factories and warehouses. The company's workhorse robot, Cassie, is a single-armed, autonomously mobile robot proven in production with millions of bulk picks across the United States. Tutor's robots use advanced vision technology to handle any mix of SKUs without changeovers or equipment modifications, and fleets can scale with seasonal demand. The service is delivered through a Robots as a Service model with usage-based pricing, including support, maintenance, and continuous model improvements, with little to no upfront expense.
Target Audience
Primary customers are small- to medium-sized contract packaging and manufacturing facilities, as well as factories and warehouses across the United States that need flexible, cost-effective automation for palletizing, depalletizing, and case picking operations.
