Managing Entropy in Autonomous Logistics — It’s Software-First for Pickle Robot
It’s a busy time for logistics. E-commerce is booming, and warehouses can’t keep up with the demand. The challenges are daunting — tasks are labor-intensive, the pace is frantic, and staffing shortages are perennial. While the industry is overdue for smarter solutions, robot startup investments require careful evaluation. Should robots be fully autonomous or collaborate with humans? How many tasks — and what kind of tasks — should a robot handle? Which automated solution will provide the most productivity, while still being safe and easy to operate? What are the company’s unique economics and customer’s return on investment? Will the solution scale?
We were impressed with the answers to all these questions while evaluating our recent investment in Pickle Robot and its logistics robot, Dill. Toyota AI Ventures is joining Pickle’s $5.57M seed round alongside lead investor Hyperplane and others, including Box Group, Third Kind Venture Capital, and Version One Ventures. Based in Boston, Massachusetts, Pickle was founded in 2018 as a spin-out of LeafLabs by AJ Meyer (CEO), Ariana Eisenstein (CTO), and Dan Paluska (VP of Robotics).

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., March 23, 2021 – LeafLabs, an engineering consulting firm, today announced it will relocate its corporate headquarters to 1280 Cambridge St., Cambridge. Mass.
