About Bossa Nova Robotics

Bossa Nova Robotics develops autonomous robots and AI-powered cloud software for real-time on-shelf inventory management in retail environments. Notably, they deployed and scaled their shelf-scanning robots in 600 Walmart Supercenters, providing continuous aisle scans—up to three times daily—and out-of-stock alerts. The $100M funded company now focuses on sharing operational learnings from this large-scale deployment with the startup community, signaling a potential shift in business focus. They remain an independent entity, not currently acquired or public.
