As a trusted long-term innovation partner of Pio, we designed and built the next-generation tools to make warehouse automation accessible, building upon AutoStore's grid-based robot solution.

The growth of e-commerce and changing customer demands have made supply chain efficiency more important than ever, with warehouses playing a pivotal role. While automation offers a quicker flow of goods, robotic systems are inaccessible for many smaller businesses due to high costs and lengthy setup times. In partnership with Pio, and drawing on the expertise of their parent company AutoStore, we developed a solution specifically designed to allow small and medium-sized businesses to access the benefits of warehouse automation.

We worked strategically and technically to transform AutoStore's technology and framework into a standalone product, building Pio from scratch to offer a compact warehouse management system that simplifies storage and retrieval through custom robots and an intuitive app that works seamlessly with platforms like Shopify and ShipStation. We also designed a modular website, including interactive tools like a savings calculator and Pio builder. Since then, we've researched, designed, built, and communicated the Pio product range and helped expand its internal team into a scalable organisation with integrated hardware, sales, and service support.
