What Pickommerce AI Robotics does

Pickommerce AI Robotics is an Israeli warehouse robotics company founded in 2022 and headquartered in Petah Tiqva that develops autonomous physical AI systems for picking, packing, and palletizing in e-commerce logistics and adjacent verticals. The company's technology centers on a proprietary triple-layer Physical AI Engine combining AI computer vision (real-time 6D pose estimation, weight/texture/center-of-gravity inference), AI gripper selection across vacuum, finger, magnetic, and patented adhesive modalities, and an AI packing algorithm that handles mixed-SKU complexity with zero-shot recognition — enabling immediate handling of any new item without retraining, catalogs, or labeling. The platform is delivered through two core products: PickoBot, an autonomous pick-and-pack cell, and PickoPal, an intelligent palletizing system with a modular Pickorail serving multiple chutes; a modular end-effector system allows the same robot to swap grippers dynamically.

The company sells hardware alongside integration and deployment services, targeting enterprise warehouse operators through a consultative field-sales motion with a 'Book a Demo' funnel on its website. Its primary commercial validation is a live PickoPal deployment at Teva Pharmaceuticals' SLE Logistics Center, with pharmaceuticals, retail/apparel, and agricultural produce distribution positioned as additional target verticals. The business is venture-backed, having closed a $3.4 million round in September 2024 led by IL Ventures with participation from Fusion, InNegev, the Israel Innovation Authority, and ZIM Ventures, the latter representing a strategic investment from a major global shipping company. Technology integration partnerships with Modula and Transtech Systems support compatibility with existing ASRS and warehouse automation infrastructure.

The company is founder-led by CEO Kfir Nissim alongside CTO Prof. Amir Shapiro (Technion) and Advisor Prof. Elon Rimon (Ben-Gurion University), with a built-out leadership team spanning VPs of R&D, Operations, Sales & Business Development, and Product. Headcount is in the 11–50 range, the company remains private, and no revenue is publicly disclosed; its competitive differentiation rests on the integrated AI engine and patented adhesive gripper addressing complex SKUs that conventional vacuum or mechanical grippers cannot handle.

Core offering

Pickommerce AI Robotics sells autonomous robotic systems — PickoBot for warehouse picking and packing, and PickoPal for palletizing — built on a proprietary triple-layer Physical AI Engine (AI computer vision, AI gripper selection, AI packing algorithm). The systems use zero-shot learning to handle any SKU from day one without retraining, and integrate interchangeable end effectors including a patented adhesive gripper for complex items. Offerings are delivered with integration and deployment services for enterprise warehouse and distribution-center customers.

Product overview

Pickommerce AI Robotics offers a unified Physical AI platform for warehouse automation with two core product lines: PickoBot for autonomous picking and packing, and PickoPal for intelligent palletizing. Both products share the same Physical AI Engine technology—a triple-layer system combining AI computer vision, AI gripper selection, and AI packing algorithm. The platform is hardware-agnostic and supports interchangeable end effectors including patented adhesive, vacuum, soft finger, and magnetic grippers. Pickorail System extends PickoPal's capabilities for multi-chute operations. All systems operate fully autonomously from day one with zero-shot learning, requiring no catalogues, no code, and no retraining for new SKUs.

Brands

• PickoBot: Autonomous pick and pack system powered by Physical AI engine. Identifies, grasps, and packs any product regardless of shape, size, weight, or texture without manual programming per SKU. Features include AI computer vision, interchangeable end effectors, patented adhesive gripper, and smart packing algorithm with 100% SKU coverage and zero-shot learning.
• PickoPal

Products and services

• PickoBot Autonomous pick-and-pack robotic system powered by the Physical AI Engine. Identifies, grasps, and packs any product regardless of shape, size, weight, or texture without manual programming per SKU, delivering 100% SKU coverage from day one via zero-shot learning and interchangeable end effectors including the patented adhesive gripper. Targeted at enterprise warehouses and distribution centers.
• PickoPal Palletizing intelligence system that recognizes any box using zero-shot AI, selects the optimal grip (vacuum, finger, magnetic, or patented adhesive), and places boxes in the right position for load stability and volume efficiency in real time. Built on the triple-layer Physical AI Engine and deployable commercially in mixed-SKU environments; proven live at Teva Pharmaceuticals' SLE Logistics Center.
• Pickorail System Modular rail-based robotic infrastructure where one robot travels along rails to serve multiple chutes, picking and consolidating mixed boxes onto destination pallets. Part of PickoPal's physical deployment architecture for multi-chute palletizing operations.
• Patented Adhesive Gripper Patent-protected adhesive-based gripper that unlocks the final 15% of complex SKUs, enabling gentle yet reliable handling of delicate, fragile, or irregular surfaces without pressure-related risks. Used as an interchangeable end effector on PickoBot.
• System Integration & Deployment Services Professional services to deploy Pickommerce systems alongside existing warehouse infrastructure and ASRS systems, including integration, training, and ongoing support for enterprise customers such as Teva Pharmaceuticals' SLE Logistics Center.
