Simbe Robotics unveils Tally 3.0 autonomous solution
Simbe Robotics has launched the latest version of its autonomous retail robot, Tally.
“Our ongoing commitment to best-in-class design and unparalleled data accuracy has empowered our partners with the real-time shelf insights they need to protect their bottom line and competitively serve customers in a rapidly evolving retail landscape,” says Brad Bogolea, Simbe’s Co-founder and CEO.
“We’re pleased to announce Tally 3.0 and unveil an even better autonomous solution to the most common problem plaguing the retail industry – inventory management.”
Schnuck Markets
Following the introduction of Tally in select stores, US retailer Schnuck Markets is now launching the technology in an additional 46 locations, taking the total to 62.
“The amount of critical data and valuable insights that Tally continues to bring us from a select number of stores is immeasurable,” says Schnucks Vice President of IT Infrastructure and Development, Dave Steck.
“By expanding our partnership with Simbe and introducing Tally to more than half our stores, we will improve our in-stock position for our customers and free up our teams from tedious inventory-related tasks, allowing more focus on service.”
“Improving our customer’s experiences has always been deeply important to us and is becoming even more critical to operations in a rapidly changing retail environment.”
Schnucks first piloted Tally in July 2017 and expanded to additional stores in 2018, with robots traversing aisles two to three times per day and capturing inventory for approximately 35,000 products per store with each traversal.
The latest expansion means that, on average, Tally will scan more than 4.2 million products per day.
