![]() "There is no fulfillment solution that can handle double the orders, fulfill them in half the time, with half the staff, for half the cost. With a declining available labor pool and sky-rocketing eCommerce sales there is a shortage of over half a million warehouse workers. Finding reliable warehouse labor now ranks among the highest pain points for retailers as they attempt to maintain business continuity and simultaneously scale their fulfillment operations. Today, Nimble robots are deployed in fulfillment centers across the United States picking over 100,000 items per day for customers including several Fortune 500 retailers.Ĭatalyzed by the Covid-19 pandemic, eCommerce doubled in 2020, accelerating nearly 10 years of growth in the span of just a few months, according to McKinsey & Co. Nimble's fleet of AI-powered robots intelligently pick, pack, and handle millions of products, spanning from apparel and electronics to beauty, general merchandise and grocery items. Nimble's mission is to democratize affordable, on-demand fulfillment for every ecommerce retailer.

This unlocks a new type of autonomous warehouse that's simpler, smaller, faster and more efficient than the best warehouses in the world today. Rather than designing warehouses around the ergonomics of people, we can now reimagine and reinvent the warehouse to be conducive to robots, where robots can go and what robots can do. By training AI robots to handle millions of products, we have reached a technological inflection point. Over the last 5 years, Nimble has been working hard to build AI for robots to intelligently pick, pack and handle any object, reliably. Because of this, warehouses have always depended on manual labor for the picking task and therefore warehouses today have always been designed around the ergonomics, safety and productivity of people – where people can go and what people can do. Doing so requires reliable robotic handling of millions of different products – a feat even the largest eCommerce companies in the world haven't yet solved at scale. ![]() The picking and packing process in fulfillment centers has been notoriously hard to automate. We've raised a $65M Series B to scale our Autonomous Fulfillment Service and invest further in R&D towards inventing the autonomous supply chain using AI robotics. Today, we are excited to share that we've been building out a nationwide network of next-generation robotic 3PL fulfillment centers to give eCommerce Brands Economical 2-day or Less Delivery.
