As a part of its Flipkart Leap accelerator program, Flipkart and group company Myntra have started piloting solutions with startups Unbox Robotics and Tagbox Solutions. Unbox Robotics and Tagbox Solutions will benefit not just the fashion and grocery categories on these marketplaces but all the other categories as well.
Unbox will build a plug and play system of AI-powered mobile robots that sort packages in vertical spaces and improve personnel productivity fivefold in less than 50-70 per cent of the area required by existing methods. The start-up has already onboarded some of the leading logistics and e-commerce players in India and overseas.
Tagbox will provide supply chain monitoring solutions using IoT, ML and AI to help organizations solve problems related to product quality and compliance, traceability and operational efficiency. It provides services to F&B, pharma, hi-tech/industrial companies.
Myntra is currently evaluating Entropik Tech, another start-up from the first cohort, as a potential customer. An emotion AI company, Entropik has patented technologies that help brands measure the cognitive and emotional response of consumers towards product experiences, media campaigns and brand content, thereby unlocking consumer behavioral insights for brands to deliver superlative experiences.
