Why Pio works well for ecommerce

More inventory, same space
Store up to 10x more inventory in the same footprint, without moving to a bigger warehouse.
Faster order fulfillment
Robots bring bins directly to your team, so orders get picked and packed without walking the aisles.
Ready for peak season
Add robots for peak season, then dial it back when things slow down.
Fewer picking errors
Robots bring the right bin, and the Pio app guides every pick, so customers get exactly what they ordered.
Order notification showing an online order is ready to pick

Keep every order moving. Orders from Shopify and other platforms sync to the Pio app in real time, so you can focus on growing your brand.

Goods-to-person storage grid where robots retrieve bins on demand

Your whole inventory, on demand. Every product in your online store waits in the grid, and robots fetch it when someone orders.

Speed up order fulfillment. Pio makes picking up to 5x faster than manual shelving, so orders get packed and shipped sooner.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is warehouse automation worth it for a growing ecommerce brand?
Yes, if walking and searching are slowing down your order fulfillment or your warehouse is running out of space. Pio, created by AutoStore, stores up to 10x more inventory in the same footprint, and most of our customers enjoy a full return on investment within 12 to 18 months.
Which warehouse automation connects directly to Shopify?
Pio connects directly to Shopify through our plug-in, so orders and inventory sync in real time. It also works with ShipStation, Webshipper, and other systems through our open API. More on the Shopify integration.
How can an ecommerce brand handle peak season order spikes?
By reducing manual work and keeping better track of inventory as order volume grows. With a goods-to-person system like Pio, inventory comes to your team instead of them walking and searching for products, and the Pio app tracks what's in stock and where, so your team can pick faster during busy periods. Pio also lets you add extra robots for holidays and seasonal peaks, then reduce robot capacity when demand slows. More on booster bots.
How much does warehouse automation cost for an ecommerce brand?

Pio starts from $146,700 plus a monthly fee for a P100. With Pio's Robotics-as-a-Service model, you buy the grid and bins, while the monthly fee covers the robots, ports, and Pio software, and you can scale up to the P600 as your orders grow. More on Pio pricing.
