Tackling complex operational challenges: Brain Corp autonomous robot fleet hits 250bn square feet milestone

Brain Corp reports that its fleet of over 37,000 autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), powered by the BrainOS Robotics Platform, has now covered more than 250 billion square feet of space globally.

To put this scale into perspective, 250 billion square feet is equivalent to covering the entire landmass of New York CIty almost 30 times, 4.34 million football fields, or 89 million tennis courts. In addition to the area covered, Brain Corp’s fleet also reached more than 19 million hours of autonomous operation, equal to over 2,100 years of continuous operation. 

"This latest milestone is a testament not only to the success of Brain Corp, but to the shift we’re seeing toward automation across sectors,” says David Pinn, CEO at Brain Corp. "Whether it’s optimising inventory management or creating cleaner, safer environments, our autonomy solutions are helping organisations tackle their most complex operational challenges."

By utilising the BrainOS Sense Suite and BrainOS Clean Suite, enterprise customers automate critical tasks such as inventory management and commercial floor care, and shift employee workloads from time-consuming, physically demanding tasks to higher value activities.

Brain Corp’s latest data shows increased utilisation of BrainOS powered AMRs across multiple industries globally. Comparing Q3 2022 to Q3 2024, the average daily usage grew significantly across sectors:  Warehouse/Industrial: +340%  Education: +123%  Airports: +91% Retail: +53% Malls: +16%

“What makes this so significant isn’t just the enormity of the area our fleet has covered, but the unique volume of data we’re able to learn from as a result. This allows us to consistently optimise our technology and quickly adapt to real-world challenges, which means providing ever increasing value to our customers,” says Jarad Cannon, CTO at Brain Corp.
