Meet Brightpick Intuition, the software brain behind our robots

What would happen if you let dozens of robots roam a warehouse on their own? It wouldn’t take long for chaos to unfold. Our robots are smart, but even they need a centralized brain that optimizes the entire fleet.

That’s where Brightpick Intuition comes in, our advanced software that brings the entire solution to life by precisely orchestrating the entire robot fleet and fulfillment process. Let’s take a closer look at all its advanced capabilities:

1. Smart order fulfillment

Brightpick Intuition manages each step of the fulfillment process to maximize throughput and speed. When new orders arrive from your WMS or ERP, it promptly directs robots to pick and dispatch them, dynamically prioritizing tasks and assigning new jobs based on current needs. 

In case that item is not pickable, Brightpick Intuition automatically directs robots to the nearest G2P (goods-to-person) stations.

From picking orders to restocking inventory, the software ensures that the optimal number of robots focus on high-priority tasks. For larger orders, it automatically splits picks across multiple totes and consolidates them for dispatch, while batch picking enables a single robot to handle multiple orders simultaneously. 

During quiet periods, robots recharge intelligently to keep the entire fleet ready for peak times.

2. Inventory optimization

Brightpick Intuition tracks all inventory in real time, allowing you to easily locate every SKU through an intuitive UI. Using dynamic slotting, the software optimizes storage by positioning high-demand SKUs closer to packout stations, reducing travel time and maximizing efficiency. With active weight management, it ensures each robot can safely handle heavy totes, enhancing performance and minimizing errors to keep operations smooth and reliable.

3. Efficient path planning

Each robot’s route is calculated in real time. Brightpick Intuition calculates the most optimal path not only to minimize travel distance, but also to avoid slowing down other robots or creating congestion. Real-time re-planning ensures uninterrupted operations even if something unexpectedly changes while the robot is already traveling. All this ensures Brightpick robots can work efficiently even in the busiest warehouse environments.

4. Real-time performance monitoring

Brightpick Intuition provides comprehensive performance dashboards and metrics, giving you full visibility into your warehouse’s operations. With proactive alerts sent directly to your communication channels, you’re always in the loop and able to immediately resolve any issues.

In addition, operational suggestions such as “Add more totes to XX” or “Running out of inventory in SKU Y” mean you always stay ahead of potential issues. Plus, with 24/7 remote support from Brightpick, you always have a helping hand whenever a challenge arise.

Brightpick Intuition goes beyond basic robotic software functionality. It effectively becomes a digital twin of your warehouse, providing you with real-time oversight and ensuring reliable and consistent operations at all times.
