Every robot.
One moving floor.
Close the aisle. The fleet will find new routes, and the receipt below will show the time recovered. 12× playback.
The problem is local.
The plan is shared.
One robot sees the obstruction. Every robot gets a route that accounts for it. Crossaisle changes the plan across manufacturers, before a queue becomes the whole floor's problem.
you close it.
Use the live floor above. This receipt updates from the routes the model actually finds.
The time belongs to the shift.We estimate when each robot reaches the blockage, subtract that arrival time from the closure window, then deduct its extra travel. The remaining robot minutes become capacity available to picking.
The assumptions stay attached.This model assumes a 65-second blockage and no handling delay. It models route choice, not safety control. Your pilot uses your measured travel and pick times.
Keep the robots.
Lose the silos.
Your next robot shouldn't require another island of software. Assign the work once. Crossaisle matches the load, route, battery, and available capacity to the right machine.
Active mobile robots on one indoor floor. Built for fulfillment centers, 3PLs, and manufacturers moving totes, pallets, or carts between fixed stations.
VDA 5050 task and status messages where supported. Vendor APIs bridge existing fleets after a connector review. We name unsupported functions before you sign.
Your warehouse system keeps the order record. Crossaisle accepts jobs over an API, dispatches them, and returns completion or a reason a job could not run.
One floor map holds station IDs, aisle widths, load limits, and restricted zones. A small carrier can use a route a loaded pallet robot cannot. Priorities apply across the fleet, so an urgent replenishment doesn't sit behind a low-priority empty return.
Start with two robot makes and one shared workflow. The first integration review covers map alignment, vendor permissions, and Wi-Fi coverage. If a closed robot platform cannot accept external jobs, we will not promise a connector.
The floor changes.
The rules don't.
Orchestration is only useful when the people responsible for the shift know exactly what it controls. Start in shadow mode. Approve the operating envelope. Keep a human override within reach.

Loss of connection does not mean permission to keep dispatching. New assignments pause; each robot follows its vendor's safe-state behavior. A changed layout, an unverified connector, or mixed pedestrian traffic needs a site-specific review. We do not replace a safety assessment.
Measure the shift.
Then change it.
A prettier map is not a business case. Replay the same jobs, disruption, and travel limits with and without shared planning. The difference should survive a conversation with your operations team.
Cross-aisle 04 · capacity comparison
One change: a fleet that shares the detour.
Close the aisle to make your comparison.The chart is connected to the model above. It plots the waiting budget for affected trips against their measured detour time. Reset the aisle and the comparison resets with it.
Your pilot gets a stricter scorecard.We compare completed jobs per paid hour, queue time at handoffs, missed deadlines, and operator interventions. You receive the raw events and a written readout, including runs where the current system did better. No savings claim becomes a commitment until your floor supports it.
Price the fleet
you actually run.
A site fee covers the shared floor. A robot fee grows with active capacity. Change the count to see the whole monthly subscription, before a sales call.
An active robot receives work in the billing month. Spare machines do not count. This calculator changes the quote; the live floor remains a 300-robot model.
billed monthly
One site. Three supported connectors. Unlimited operators. Dispatch, replay, audit export, and 24/7 incident response included.
A four-week pilot is $4,800.It includes a compatibility review, one workflow, and a before-and-after report. The pilot fee is credited against your first production invoice. Production is a 12-month agreement; the pilot does not auto-convert.
Separate, and agreed in advance:new vendor connectors, additional sites, onsite travel, hardware, and network work. Existing supported connectors have no setup fee. Your quote states acceptance criteria and the exact scope before any rollout begins.
Give us a floor.
We'll earn the shift.
Bring a map, the robot models, and one workflow worth fixing. A pilot should answer whether Crossaisle belongs in your operation, with a clear way to stop if it doesn't.
Review connectors, station IDs, and safe operating limits. Choose one scorecard with your shift lead. The system observes; your current dispatcher stays in charge.
Replay jobs and compare decisions. Investigate every mismatch. You approve a limited zone and explicit rollback conditions before a robot receives a live task.
Start on a supervised shift. Inspect results together, then expand only when the agreed target is met. If the fit is wrong, keep the report and the exported data.
