Pramod Ghadge, Co-founder and CEO of Unbox Robotics, said,
“With a massive surge in ecommerce, in the next three to five years, the logistics industry needs to handle about 2X the load they process today. Having seen these problems first hand, we decided to build a plug and play swarm robotics system that can improve the package sorting productivity while saving the area by 50-70 percent compared to existing sorting systems.”
Unbox Robotics offers the world’s 1st of its kind patent-pending AI-powered parcel sorting robotic system that gets installed at least 10X faster, saves 70% – 80% area and improves productivity by more than 4X. As per the startup, their robots are 2-3X productive than the industry average.
Talking about the clients, Pramod said,
“Currently, we are closely working with six ecommerce and logistics enterprises in India, Southeast Asia, and the US to deploy our solution in the next 12 months, and earn seven-figure revenue figures.
