Attabotics, the 3D robotics supply chain company, today announced a partnership with AltaML, a leading Canadian applied artificial intelligence and machine learning company, and the Alberta Machine Intelligence Institute (Amii), one of the worlds preeminent centers of artificial intelligence research and application, to develop capabilities in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) that further optimize efficiency and productivity in Attabotics innovative supply chain infrastructure. Together, the three organizations will begin operationalizing the partnership through projects that combine AI technologies with IoT (Internet of Things) infrastructure to achieve more efficient IoT operations, improve human-machine interactions and enhance Attabotics data management and capabilities.

Requiring 85 percent less space than typical fulfillment warehouses, Attabotics is an entirely new way to store and pick goods in warehouses that is tailor-made to help retailers respond to changing e-commerce demands and empower brands. The company transforms the rows and aisles of a typical warehouse into a single, vertical storage structure thats modular and scalable, and uses 3D robots internally to store and retrieve items for box packers on the outside perimeter. Attabotics offers an ideal applied platform to utilize emerging technologies to optimize the supply chain for modern commerce.

Integrating AI technology into the supply chain for transparency, predictive analytics and network optimization is integral as the pandemic has shown that the traditional supply chain doesnt and wont support modern consumer behavior. Attabotics is building advanced AI/ML capabilities that maximize supply chain system throughput by predictively optimizing fulfillment while minimizing downtime. Attabotics drives these advanced AI models by leveraging IoT data derived from modern cloud based robotic operations. With AltaML and Amii, Attabotics is taking another step toward building out its digitally integrated, distributed network that is optimized for modern commerce.

Were excited to work with two world-renowned organizations to build the future of innovation in Canada, said Scott Gravelle, Attabotics CEO. Creating alliances with industry-leading partners is something weve put an emphasis on, which is why were so grateful to have identified the right partners in AltaML and Amii to help further to optimize our platform as we revolutionize the supply chain.

This collaboration draws on the strengths of three Alberta technology leaders to expand the data analytics capabilities for customers. Combining Attabotics expertise in warehousing and fulfillment with AltaMLs expertise developing applied AI solutions and Amiis world-leading research expertise, the collaboration will enable innovation in areas such as maximizing system automation uptime and throughput. This partnership will also support the growth of Calgary and Alberta as an innovation hub and contributes to an ecosystem where technology and innovation continue to thrive.

AltaML builds and deploys AI-powered software for complex problems, creating new competitive advantage for our partners, said Nicole Janssen, AltaML co-CEO. Attabotics has disrupted traditional warehousing, and we are thrilled to work with them, and Amii, to optimize their processes through applied AI. We are already seeing promising results and look forward to many more to come.

Amii is thrilled to be part of this one-of-a-kind collaboration bringing together three of Albertas leading technology organizations. Together, were demonstrating the provinces reputation as a hub for technology and artificial intelligence through the combination of Attabotics transformational work in advanced robotics for supply chain, Amiis leadership and expertise in artificial intelligence research and development and AltaMLs proven record in applying AI to create business impact. This partnership shows the power of public-private partnerships and is further proof of Albertas leadership in the research and application of AI, said Cam Linke, Amii CEO.
