Standard AI transforms the retail landscape with Google Cloud tools.

Have you ever stood in a long line and wished that checking out could be faster? Imagine a future where you can check out almost as quickly as a click online. Standard AI and Google Cloud are making this possible by implementing Vertex AI tools in their checkout systems.

In a rapidly evolving retail environment, companies face challenges such as rising labor costs and inflation. The choice for AI-driven systems like self-checkout and smart inventory management is therefore a logical one. The recent collaboration between Standard AI and Google Cloud perfectly addresses this. By leveraging Vertex's machine learning and generative AI, core processes such as checkout are being optimized at a rapid pace.

Thanks to this alliance, Standard AI gains access to additional Google Cloud technologies, such as generative AI and PoS-assisted capabilities. These enhance their autonomous checkout and the recently acquired self-checkout solution called Skip. Jordan Fisher, CEO of Standard AI, emphasizes that we are on the brink of an AI-driven retail revolution.

This innovation comes at the right time. Studies show that more than 60% of grocers believe customers will switch if there are no self-service options, and nearly 80% say the same about barcode and scanner apps. Given that only 38% of American supermarkets offer self-checkout, the need for transformation is clear.

The next time you find yourself in line, you can look forward to the upcoming changes. For retailers, this represents an excellent opportunity to become more efficient, save costs, and attract a new audience of digitally savvy consumers.
