Parcel Sortation Automation

Plus One Robotics provides AI-powered robotic systems for parcel sortation that handle diverse package types with a human-in-the-loop oversight model for handling exceptions.

About

Plus One Robotics is a San Antonio-based robotics company founded in 2016 that has raised $33M to automate parcel sortation in carrier and e-commerce fulfillment operations using AI with a unique human-in-the-loop architecture. The company's Yonder AI platform enables robots to pick and sort diverse parcels using computer vision and AI, while routing edge cases and difficult items to remote human supervisors who guide the robot through the exception with video game-style interfaces. This hybrid autonomy model allows systems to achieve higher uptime and handle more exception cases than fully autonomous systems, while requiring far fewer humans than manual operations. Plus One has deployed commercial systems at major parcel carriers and logistics operators and demonstrated significant cost advantages over manual parcel sortation. The company's remote human supervision capability allows a single supervisor to monitor and assist multiple robot cells simultaneously, creating a scalable model for managing the long tail of exception cases that all parcel sortation systems encounter. Plus One competes in the parcel handling automation market alongside Mujin, Vicarious, and cobot-based pick-and-place systems.
