The Challenge

Manual shelf checks were slow and inconsistent, so out-of-stock and misplaced products went unnoticed for hours, costing sales and frustrating customers.

Our Approach

We trained object-detection models on shelf imagery and deployed them on edge devices for low-latency inference, generating real-time alerts the moment a shelf needs attention.

Results

  • 99.2% of restocking issues detected
  • Sub-100ms inference latency at the edge
  • Real-time alerts instead of periodic manual checks
  • More consistent on-shelf availability
