GreyOrange CEO Akash Gupta discusses how AI and robotics are reshaping warehouse operations, as the industry moves toward coordinated systems that boost productivity.

3 Key Points

  1. What happened

    Akash Gupta, Co-founder and CEO of GreyOrange, was featured on The Robot Report Podcast to discuss AI-powered fulfillment orchestration. GreyOrange has grown since 2012 into a global leader serving major retailers and logistics providers. The company's platform, GreyMatter, coordinates robots and systems in real time, delivering up to 4x productivity gains.

  2. Why it matters

    Warehouses today struggle when robots, people, and systems cannot work together seamlessly. GreyOrange's approach shows that AI can unlock value by orchestrating existing infrastructure rather than requiring a complete hardware replacement. This matters to warehouse operators because it addresses a real operational bottleneck—coordination across multiple agents on the floor.

  3. What to watch

    GreyMatter performs over a million optimizations per minute and works with robots a facility already owns or plans to acquire. For warehouse operators considering AI adoption, this compatibility across legacy and new equipment is the key differentiator to evaluate.
