In their own words
GreyMatter
GreyMatter is GreyOrange’s fulfillment orchestration platform for automating warehouse work with robotics. Its warehouse control system can direct robotic and human agents, while one instance coordinates goods-to-person, person-to-goods, and manual operations in a dark store. Supported processes include inventory management, dock-to-stock, storage and retrieval, replenishment, picking, putaway, order consolidation, sorting, audits, and packing. Real-time analytics, dashboards, capacity management, order SLA insights, inventory reports, and automated audits provide operational visibility. GreyMatter can consolidate orders across picking areas and dynamically manage service-level agreements. GreyOrange describes the platform as hardware-agnostic, able to coordinate Ranger robots and robots from other vendors without another control layer. An Open API covers catalog data, service requests, audits, reports, and process-flow triggers, with mandatory OAuth authentication. The dark-store solution can operate without a WMS or other third-party software. Pro, Power, and Premium options are listed with pricing on request.
