Planet Warehouse

PROBLEM

The gap between made and shipped is where things go wrong.

SOLUTION

Planet Warehouse is the MTREES semi-automated logistics and fulfillment layer — the full ecosystem of products for the environment where things arrive from manufacturing, wait in organized silence, get located by a system that mostly knows where they are, and eventually depart toward a packaging station before entering the broader world. The warehouse is not a romantic environment but it is a consequential one: every product in the MTREES universe passes through it at some point, and the difference between a warehouse that works and one that doesn't is the difference between a customer who received the thing and a customer who received an email about the thing. Planet Warehouse treats the fulfillment floor as a design problem — one that can be improved with better robots, better humans, and a Dumb Brain that has learned enough to be trusted with something approaching a decision.
