Simbe Robotics Debuts a New Tool to Remotely Monitor Store Shelves

— July 22, 2024 — Business
Simbe Robotics has launched a new technology that enables grocers to remotely monitor store operations through visual data captured by Tally, the company’s aisle-scanning robots.

Accessible via mobile devices and desktop computers, the platform delivers real-time insights into store operations, enhancing grocers' ability to manage inventory and optimize product placements effectively. In addition to the desktop interface, Simbe Robotics has developed mobile applications that allow store staff and managers to access and analyze the data collected by Tally robots directly from their smartphones.

By leveraging detailed visual data and advanced analytics, retailers can make informed decisions to streamline their processes, reduce out-of-stock instances, and ensure optimal product presentation.

The company’s new app is available on Apple iOS, Google Android, and proprietary handheld devices.
