Simbe Robotics applies artificial intelligence to retail operations, focusing on shelf digitization and inventory management. The company's technical stack includes computer vision, robotics, RFID, and advanced sensor technologies.
Its core product, Tally, is an autonomous robot that patrols store aisles multiple times daily, using computer vision to capture real-time data on product availability, pricing accuracy, and shelf placement. This integrates with the Store Intelligence Platform, which combines data from Tally, RFID components like Tally RFID, and fixed sensors such as Tally Spot to create a digital twin of physical retail spaces.
The solutions are deployed in 10 countries, delivering measurable outcomes such as 98% on-shelf availability, 90% improved price and promotion accuracy, 2% margin growth, and reallocation of over 50 weekly labor hours from scanning to customer service, with a typical ROI within three months.
