Tutor Intelligence Demonstrates CasePick with Cassie

Why It Matters

Cassie’s zero‑capex, usage‑based automation lets warehouses boost productivity and accuracy while cutting labor costs, a critical advantage in today’s high‑speed, margin‑pressured supply chains.

Key Takeaways

• Cassie automates mixed‑SKU pallet building with zero upfront capital.
• Mobile robot docks to pallet dollies, picks and places cases precisely.
• Dynamic grid adapts to demand, volume, and SKU mix in real time.
• System alerts operators to obstacles, reroutes, and triggers replenishment.
• Operators scan completed pallets for instant digital manifests and shipping labels.

Summary

Tutor Intelligence showcased Cassie, a mobile autonomous robot that builds mixed‑SKU pallets without any upfront capital expenditure. The robot moves freely across a dedicated warehouse zone, docks to pallet dollies, and uses an intelligent arm to pick, weigh, measure, and place cases, creating high‑quality pallets in a continuous flow. The system relies on a dynamic grid that continuously reconfigures as demand, volume, and SKU mix shift throughout the day, allowing Cassie to select the right cases from multiple pallets and carry two order pallets simultaneously. Real‑time alerts trigger replenishment and obstacle avoidance, keeping operators safe while maintaining uninterrupted operation. During the demo, inbound pallets were verified and stored into the grid, Cassie built outbound pallets, and operators scanned the dolly to instantly view a digital manifest and apply shipping labels—eliminating recounts and guesswork. The robot’s ability to reroute around unexpected hazards and signal forklift operators for replenishment highlights its readiness for real‑world warehouse environments. By delivering faster throughput, consistent pallet quality, and dramatically reduced labor reliance, Cassie enables distribution centers to scale output without scaling headcount, offering a usage‑based cost model that aligns with tight margins and volatile labor markets.
