The Barcode Warehouse and ShopperAI partnership brings AI shelf intelligence to UK retail space
The Barcode Warehouse, a UK retail technology integrator and solutions provider, has partnered with ShopperAI to bring AI powered camera intelligence to UK retail. The ShopperAI solution aims to improve on-shelf availability, strengthen planogram compliance and deliver greater visibility of in-store activity using existing camera infrastructure, backed by The Barcode Warehouse’s experience in retail technology solutions and implementation.
ShopperAI has been deployed across live retail environments. It analyses live video feeds from existing in-store cameras to identify empty or low stock shelves and detect planogram compliance issues, such as missing or incorrectly placed products. This delivers consistent visibility across store estates while reducing the need for manual checks and photographic surveys. The platform also generates real-time alerts to highlight where intervention is needed, enabling store teams to respond faster, improve execution and maintain greater accountability on the shopfloor.
Jason Datt, Retail Technology Sales Lead, The Barcode Warehouse, says: “This partnership supports The Barcode Warehouse’s focus on connecting in-store technologies into more integrated operations. Retailers need a simple, scalable way to understand what is really happening in their stores. This partnership with ShopperAI allows us to deliver camera-based shelf and planogram visibility using infrastructure retailers already have in place, helping them improve operational performance and respond faster to issues that directly impact sales.”
Lanor Daniel, CEO, ShopperAI, says: “On-shelf availability and planogram compliance remain two of the biggest drivers of retail performance. Our platform gives retailers real-time visibility of what is happening on the shelf, enabling faster action, improved execution and the ability to recover lost sales opportunities. By combining TBW’s extensive experience in retail technology deployment with ShopperAI’s AI powered computer vision platform, retailers gain access to a scalable solution capable of delivering actionable insight across entire store estates."
ShopperAI made its UK debut at Retail Technology Show 2026 in April on The Barcode Warehouse stand. As part of the partnership, ShopperAI will be added to the suite of technologies showcased at The Barcode Warehouse Innovation and Customer Experience Centre (ICE) in Newark. The ICE provides an environment where customers can see and test integrated technologies in action, find out about real-world use cases and understand how solutions can be applied within their own operations.
2026 RTIH Innovation Awards
AI will be a key focus area at the 2026 RTIH Innovation Awards.
The awards are now open for entries and celebrate global retail technology innovation in a fast moving omnichannel world.
Our winners will be revealed at the 2026 RTIH Innovation Awards Ceremony, taking place at The HAC in Central London on Wednesday, 4th November.
Check out our 2025 winners here.
Our 2025 hall of fame entrants were revealed during a sold out event which took place at The HAC on 16th October and consisted of a drinks reception, three course meal, and awards ceremony presided over by award winning comedian, actress and writer Tiff Stevenson.
In his welcome speech, Scott Thompson, Founder and Editor, RTIH, said: “This is the awards’ fifth year as a physical event. We started off with just 30 people at the South Place Hotel not far from here, then moved to London Bridge Hotel, then The Barbican, and last year RIBA’s HQ in the West End.”
“But I’m conscious of the fact that, to quote the legend that is Taylor Swift, You’re only as hot as your last hit, baby. So, this year we’ve moved to our biggest venue yet, and also pulled in our largest number of entries to date and broken attendance records.”
He added: “This year’s submissions have without doubt been our best yet. To quote one of the judges: The examples of innovative developments across both traditional and digital retail spaces were truly remarkable.”
Congratulations to our winners, and a big thank you to our sponsors, judging panel, the legend that is Tiff Stevenson, and all those who attended our 2025 gathering.
