Ox

Ox aims to improve this situation, using wearable equipment (such as heads-up display visors and smartwatches) and AI-driven software designed for frontline workers in these industries. This human-centered automation allows these workers to benefit from live guidance which improves both their efficiency and safety in the workplace. Ox's technology has been adopted in the warehouses and retail operations of a number of Fortune 500 companies where it has already been shown to increase productivity by over 20%.

Ox is almost unique in its focus on the human workforce in a field which has increasingly turned to robotics to cope with a labour shortage. Investors clearly think it has found a compelling (and most cost-effective) solution and have backed the company with significant funding. This is being used to increase its marketing efforts, scale its production, and engage in further R&D. As the demand for skilled logistics and supply chain workers is only projected to increase, Ox is well positioned to grow a significant business in this space.
