SAN FRANCISCO–October 5, 2021– Standard AI, the world’s leading computer vision platform for retail, today announced that it is partnering with retail technology leaders to launch the Autonomous Retail Initiative (A.R.I.), a first of its kind initiative aimed at investing in convenience store operators to help shape the future of retail — together.
Through the A.R.I., Standard AI will invite up to ten convenience stores and chains across North America to attend a three-day workshop and program in San Francisco. Participants will dig in on the latest innovations in retail technology and learn how automation can be used to reimagine retail operations and offer a better customer experience. Standard AI will invite one operator to receive a full buildout of one existing store into a checkout free experience, at no cost.
“Computer vision and autonomous retail can unlock enormous value for c-store operators excited to use technology to transform what’s possible in convenience. We believe every one of these operators deserves to benefit from this innovation — not just multi-billion dollar giants,” said Jordan Fisher, Standard AI’s CEO. “Standard AI and our retail tech partners are looking for forward-thinking c-store operators eager to drive the future of the industry. And we can’t wait to partner up with one or more of these companies and kick-start their journey to autonomous retail with a full Standard AI autonomous checkout retrofit.”
Register here to apply for the A.R.I. The winners will be announced by the end of the year.
