About
Plus One Robotics is an industry leader in AI-powered robotic automation for warehouse and fulfillment operations. Their solution suite automates the most physically demanding logistics tasks using advanced computer vision and machine learning, delivering measurable gains in throughput, safety, and operational predictability. At the core of their platform is PickOne, an AI vision system that enables robots to identify, grasp, and handle a wide variety of package types and SKUs in real time. DepalOne is a portable, plug-and-play robotic work cell for automated mixed and grocery depalletizing, starting at $155,000 and designed for rapid deployment. InductOne is the industry's fastest dual-arm induction system for high-throughput parcel sorting. Central to Plus One's differentiated approach is Yonder, their supervised autonomy platform. Rather than requiring full unsupervised automation, Yonder keeps human operators remotely in the loop—when a robot encounters an unusual item or scenario, an operator resolves it in seconds, ensuring near-100% uptime without constant on-site labor. Plus One Robotics serves third-party logistics providers, parcel and post carriers, and general merchandise retailers across 15 countries. Having executed over 1.5 billion picks, their systems are validated in demanding real-world environments. The platform is purpose-built for enterprise operations looking to scale fulfillment capacity, reduce workplace injuries, and achieve predictable productivity without proportionally increasing headcount.
Key Features

- Yonder Supervised Autonomy Platform: Keeps remote human operators in the loop to resolve edge cases in seconds, ensuring near-100% operational uptime without requiring full unsupervised automation.
- DepalOne Depalletizing Work Cell: A portable, plug-and-play robotic system for automated mixed and grocery depalletizing, starting at $155,000 and deployable with minimal integration effort.
- InductOne Dual-Arm Induction System: The industry's fastest dual-arm robotic induction cell for high-throughput parcel sorting and conveyor induction at postal, courier, and fulfillment facilities.
- Enterprise-Scale Proven Reliability: Over 1.5 billion picks executed across deployments in 15 countries, providing validated performance benchmarks for demanding real-world warehouse environments.
Use Cases
- Automating high-volume depalletizing of mixed-SKU and grocery pallets in large distribution centers
- Accelerating parcel sorting and conveyor induction throughput at postal and courier facilities
- Enabling 3PLs to scale fulfillment capacity during peak seasons without proportional labor increases
- Reducing workplace injuries and ergonomic strain by replacing manual pick-and-place tasks with robotics
- Deploying flexible, portable robotic work cells across multiple warehouse locations with minimal downtime
Pros
- Proven at Massive Scale: 1.5 billion+ picks across 15 countries demonstrates enterprise-grade reliability and the ability to perform in diverse, real-world warehouse conditions.
- Human-in-the-Loop Safety Net: Yonder's supervised autonomy model prevents costly automation failures by enabling remote human operators to intervene and resolve edge cases in seconds.
- Portable & Flexible Hardware: DepalOne's plug-and-play design enables rapid deployment and redeployment across different warehouse locations without extensive infrastructure changes.
- End-to-End Warehouse Automation: Covers the complete material handling workflow—depalletizing, parcel induction, and palletizing—from a single, integrated vendor.
Cons
- High Capital Investment: Hardware systems start at $155,000, making Plus One Robotics a significant upfront investment suited primarily to large-scale enterprise operations.
- Enterprise-Only Accessibility: Solutions are designed for large 3PLs, parcel carriers, and retailers—small or mid-sized businesses are unlikely to meet the volume or cost thresholds.
- Requires Physical Installation & Integration: Robotic systems require on-site deployment, professional integration, and ongoing hardware maintenance, adding operational complexity beyond software-only solutions.
Frequently Asked Questions
What warehouse tasks does Plus One Robotics automate?
Plus One Robotics automates depalletizing (unloading pallets), palletizing (building pallets), and parcel induction (sorting packages onto conveyors)—the most repetitive and physically demanding tasks in warehouse and fulfillment operations.
What is the Yonder supervised autonomy platform?
Yonder is Plus One Robotics' remote supervision platform that keeps human operators in the loop. When a robot encounters an edge case it cannot handle autonomously, a remote operator is alerted and can resolve the situation in seconds, preventing downtime.
How much does Plus One Robotics cost?
The DepalOne depalletizing system starts at $155,000. Pricing for InductOne and other solutions is available by contacting their sales team for a custom quote.
How many picks have Plus One Robotics systems completed?
Plus One Robotics systems have executed over 1.5 billion picks across deployments in 15 different countries, establishing a strong real-world performance track record.
Which industries and customers does Plus One Robotics serve?
Plus One Robotics primarily serves general merchandise retailers, parcel and post carriers, and third-party logistics (3PL) providers that need to scale warehouse throughput efficiently and safely.
