AutoScheduler.AI brings in $6.5M to expand technologies

AutoScheduler.AI today announced it brought in $6.5 million in funding. The Austin, Texas-based company says the funding will allow it to continue growing and expanding its technologies and the company as a whole.

In particular, the company plans to enhance its AI-enabled warehouse orchestration systems, which sit on top of a WMS, to optimize decision-making and deliver on time and in full fulfillment. It says it will expand its reach through strategic marketing and partnership.

Additionally, AutoScheduler plans to grow its team, enhance its leadership team, and bring more products to market that leverage AI to enhance clients’ success.

Noro-Moseley Partners, an early growth equity firm based in Atlanta, Ga., funded the round. Vasant Kamath, a general partner at Noro-Moseley, will join AutoScheduler’s board as part of the transaction. Before this funding, AutoScheduler was privately funded, and growing rapidly and profitably, it says.

“We believe that now is the time for AutoScheduler to stake its claim as the leader of the warehouse orchestration space,” Kamath said. “Warehouses are undergoing a seismic shift in the industry and are at the forefront of supply chain transformation. With the right innovative tools in place, warehouses and supply chain leaders can unlock major efficiencies and improve customer satisfaction. AutoScheduler’s AutoPilot and AutoPilot Central are the tools to do just that.” 

AutoScheduler.AI is a warehouse orchestration platform and WMS accelerator. The company developed its AI and machine learning platform with P&G. It has been implemented at P&G, Unilever, General Mills, and others. The company says the platform can streamline operations by seamlessly integrating with WMS and ERP. 

AutoScheduler to build on the momentum from AutoPilot Central release

In May, AutoScheduler launched AutoPilot Central, a platform that provides a bird’s-eye view of multi-site data for centralized command and control of an entire distributed warehouse network. It allows executives to identify potential issues within the network, determine which shipments are at risk, and act before issues occur.

“Warehouse environments are constantly changing with fluctuating inventory levels, customer demands, and workforce availability, needing meticulous orchestration to meet customer service levels,” Keith Moore, CEO of AutoScheduler.AI, said. “We believe the industry is at the cusp of innovation with our warehouse orchestration solutions, and we plan to expand on these technologies to deliver unparalleled results for customers’ bottom lines.”

The company says its systems benefit food, beverage, retail, and CPG firms by:

  • Offering dynamic operations: AutoScheduler’s system offers real-time, dynamic warehouse orchestration that continually optimizes operations, setting it apart from traditional, static WMS. The platform can adapt to changing conditions within the warehouse, ensuring the optimal use of labor, resources, and space.
  • Planning for tomorrow: The company says its systems go beyond managing the current execution window to predict future bottlenecks and issues. This allows businesses to take proactive measures to ensure smooth operations and prevent disruptions.
  • Offering full-scale visibility: AutoScheduler’s products provide detailed, real-time operational visibility and data streams that consolidate all necessary information into a single view for a clearer, comprehensive overview of all warehouse activities.
  • Excelling in complex environments: The platform handles dynamic and chaotic environments making it perfect for businesses with fluctuating demands and high operational complexity.
