Locus Robotics Reports Record Growth Achieving 6 Billion Picks in Fastest Time Yet
22.10.2025 11:00:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
Locus Robotics, the global leader in AI-driven, mobile warehouse automation, today announced its strongest growth over the past two quarters, reflecting accelerating industry adoption of Physical AI, seamlessly fusing intelligent robotics and real-world execution. Driven by surging implementations and faster time-to-value for customers, Locus Robotics recently surpassed 6 billion picks worldwide, with the last billion in just 24 weeks—the fastest pace in its history.
“Our growth is driven by our customers’ success,” said Rick Faulk, CEO of Locus Robotics. “Retailers, 3PLs, and healthcare providers are seeing measurable impact faster than ever—scaling productivity in weeks, not months. Staples Canada, for example, hit one million picks just 70 days after going live, proving the immediate ROI our platform delivers.”
So far this year, Locus Robotics has seen 30–40% year-over-year volume growth, with throughput reaching 200–300 units picked per second — roughly 45 million picks per week. Locus Robotics is on track to hit 60 million per week during Q4 peak season. In addition, deployments of incremental, peak-season bots have surged nearly 50% year-over-year, underscoring both the scale of adoption and customers’ increasing reliance on Locus Robotics highly flexible technology to handle demand spikes.
The 6 billionth pick was made at The Quality Group in Elsdorf, Germany. This site is Locus’s largest site in the EMEA region, where more than 350 LocusBots operate daily to fulfill customer orders.
“Being part of Locus’s six-billion-pick milestone reflects how innovation and collaboration can drive real results,” said Felix Köhler, Project Lead, Elsdorf Site, The Quality Group. “It’s a proud moment for our team and a testament to the performance we’ve achieved together.”
Technology and AI Differentiation
At the core of this acceleration is LocusONE™, the company’s advanced, AI-powered orchestration platform. By analyzing billions of data points across robots and tasks, LocusONE continuously optimizes throughput, fleet productivity, and network efficiency, while lowering costs and delivering a better employee experience. This intelligence enables customers to scale fluidly during high-demand periods (like Peak Season), seamlessly adapting to ongoing labor shortages, and bolstering overall resilience in the face of growing global supply chain pressures.
Global Market Leadership
With tens of thousands of robots deployed across North America, EMEA, and APAC, Locus Robotics runs one of the world’s largest and most productive autonomous robot fleets. Recent industry recognition, including being named in five Gartner Hype Cycles, making the RBR50 list, and winning the 2025 Fortress Cybersecurity Award for the second consecutive year — underscores Locus Robotics’ leadership and innovation.
Locus Robotics was also named among example vendors in two recent Forrester reports: The Forrester Tech Tide™: Smart Manufacturing, Q2 2025 (Automated Material Handling) and The Top 10 Emerging Technologies in 2025 (Autonomous Mobility Technology).

Forrester: Three Years Into GenAI, Enterprises Are Still Chasing Its True Transformative Value2.4.2026 17:00:00 EEST | Press release
According to Forrester’s (Nasdaq: FORR) latest report, Accelerate Your AI Voyage, most enterprises are struggling to turn growing AI adoption and investment into measurable business impact. One of the key factors holding businesses back is low artificial intelligence quotient (AIQ) — Forrester’s measure of AI aptitude — with many employees lacking a clear understanding of how to use AI. Other barriers include an overemphasis on productivity-focused use cases, difficulty measuring impact, and siloed adoption within individual functions. While these challenges can leave firms frozen in doubt or indecision, the wait-and-see approach to AI adoption is no longer viable. To unlock AI’s full potential, organizations need to focus on four key areas: Define the business outcomes and success metrics for what they want AI to achieve; identify specific use cases for AI deployment aligned to those business outcomes; establish a structured runway to plan, test, and strategically time the deployment

The unified company brings together deep expertise in Technology Expense Management (TEM) and IT Financial Management (ITFM) to help organizations better understand, manage, and reduce total technology spend.

Far fewer can tell you whether it’s working. “Over the past several months, we’ve brought these two businesses together around a shared purpose: help enterprise businesses better understand and optimize their technology spend,” said Joel Martins, CEO of Brightfin. “What we are seeing now is a shift.
