Fetch Robotics is a leading provider of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) and cloud-based robotics platforms that transform warehouse automation for 3PLs and distribution centers. Founded in 2014 and headquartered in San Jose, California, the company has developed a comprehensive portfolio of material transport solutions that integrate seamlessly into existing warehouse operations without requiring infrastructure modifications. What sets Fetch apart is their combination of advanced autonomous navigation technology with the FetchCore cloud robotics platform, enabling drag-and-drop workflow setup and 24/7 material movement operations. Their diverse robot fleet, ranging from the 125-600lb CartConnect units to the heavy-duty PalletTransport1500 capable of handling up to 2,500lbs, provides scalable automation solutions for picking operations, line replenishment, putaway, pallet movement, and cross-docking applications.
Fetch Robotics stands at the forefront of warehouse automation, delivering autonomous mobile robot solutions that revolutionize material handling operations for 3PLs, fulfillment centers, and distribution facilities. Since its founding in 2014, this San Jose-based company has focused on creating intelligent robotics solutions that integrate seamlessly into existing warehouse environments without requiring costly infrastructure overhauls.
Fetch's product lineup addresses diverse material handling needs through specialized autonomous mobile robots. The CartConnect series handles loads from 125-600 pounds, making it ideal for case picking and general material transport. The FlexShelf robot optimizes picking operations by bringing inventory directly to workers, significantly reducing travel time and increasing productivity. For facilities requiring conveyor-like flexibility, the RollerTop AMR provides dynamic material flow capabilities. At the heavy-duty end, the PalletTransport1500 manages loads up to 2,500 pounds, supporting pallet movement, cross-docking, and waste removal operations.
Safety and reliability are paramount in Fetch's design philosophy. Their autonomous navigation system provides 360-degree visibility through advanced sensors that detect people and obstacles in real-time. The robots feature dynamic obstacle avoidance, overhang detection, and ground obstacle detection capabilities, ensuring safe operation in busy warehouse environments where humans and machines work side by side. This comprehensive safety approach eliminates hazardous blind spots and reduces accident risks.
The FetchCore cloud robotics platform serves as the central nervous system for Fetch's AMR fleet. This intuitive, drag-and-drop interface simplifies workflow setup and robot coordination, enabling warehouse managers to deploy and modify automation processes without extensive technical expertise. The platform supports 24/7 material movement operations and includes failsafe functionality that maintains robot operation even during wireless connection interruptions, ensuring continuous productivity.
Fetch Robotics solutions excel in high-volume fulfillment operations where consistent material movement is critical. Common applications include e-commerce fulfillment centers managing thousands of daily orders, 3PL facilities serving multiple clients with varying requirements, and distribution centers focused on rapid inventory turnover. The robots particularly shine in operations requiring flexible automation that can adapt to changing workflows, seasonal demand fluctuations, and evolving customer requirements.
