Our Verdict: A well-proven collaborative AMR backed by Ocado's logistics ecosystem, ideal for e-commerce fulfillment.

The 6 River Systems Chuck is a collaborative mobile robot that works alongside warehouse associates to streamline order fulfillment. Originally acquired by Shopify in 2019 for $450M, 6 River Systems was sold to Ocado Group in May 2023 and now operates as part of Ocado Intelligent Automation. Chuck uses a wall-mounted display to guide workers to the correct locations and confirm picks with scan verification.

Chuck’s cloud-based software continuously optimizes routes across the fleet, reducing walking time by up to 50%. The robot handles the transport of picked items to packing stations, freeing workers to focus on the picking process itself.
