AutoStore’s New Flexible Robotic Piece-Picking Solution
VersaAI is a purpose-built robotic picking workstation designed to deliver autonomous execution inside the AutoStore system.
Working directly within the Grid, it automates repetitive intra-Grid workflows such as order preparation, SKU consolidation, and buffering with reliable, around-the-clock performance.
The result is continuous fulfillment with reduced manual intervention and a clear path toward scalable lights-out operations.
Famme, one of Scandinavia’s leading athleisure brands, reached a critical point where fulfillment needed to evolve with the business. With stronger operational flow, more control, and a setup built to support growth, Famme unlocked major gains across its warehouse operations. In this video, Learn how Famme’s fulfillment journey created the foundation for scale and how VersaAI extends that value even further.
VersaAI is an advanced, AI-powered robotic piece-picking workstation designed for the AutoStore grid system. It autonomously executes order preparation, buffering, and bin consolidation—allowing warehouses to operate seamlessly around the clock while reducing manual labor. [1, 2]
Core Capabilities & Workflows
VersaAI automates tasks that traditionally require manual intervention, effectively moving routine operations upstream. Its primary functions include:
Order Preparation: The system uses AI and vision technology to autonomously pick items from multiple source bins into a single target bin.
Order Buffering: It pre-packs and buffers completed orders inside the main grid so they are ready for quick staging or shipping.
Bin Consolidation: It automatically merges partially filled bins to improve your overall storage density and delay the need for physical grid expansions.
Integration & System Ecosystem
Unlike custom robotic solutions that require complex point-to-point integration, VersaAI is natively built into the AutoStore Intelligence™ ecosystem. It operates alongside several key technologies: [1, 2, 3]
CubeControl™: Uses AI to optimize the routing of robots to prevent congestion in the grid.
CubeAnalytics™: Provides AI-powered insights and operational health tracking to identify bottlenecks and guide proactive maintenance.
CubeVerse™ Platform: The overarching ecosystem platform that coordinates system design, warehouse execution, and VersaAI workflows.
Business Benefits
24/7 Operations: By executing repetitive tasks in the background, you can transition to continuous or "lights-out" fulfillment.
Lower Labor Costs: Human operators are freed up to focus on supervision, exception handling, and higher-value tasks.
Faster Cycles: Decoupling picking and packing with automated VersaAI processes speeds up overall order processing and predictability.
