One pick file in. Today’s moves out, net of replen.
SlotWise draws your warehouse from its location codes, keeps a scored queue of moves and plans each shift on the minutes it gives back: walk saved, minus replen added.

Prove it
Picks after the move measure the saving.
Every move is judged on net minutes.
A nearer bay saves steps. A smaller face costs refills. SlotWise puts both on every move and plans only what is left after replen.
- Refills a day
- units a day ÷ (max − min)
- Refill point
- 25% of the face
- Refill labor
- 22 an hour loose, 10 an hour pallet
- Face sizes
- per fixture until you load real ones, marked est.
Two moves, worked by the product’s model
| Item | Face now → after | Picks/d | Distance | Walk | Replen | Net |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SKU-1187 | Flow rack 120 u → Bay 60 u | 45 | 58 → 46 ft | 4.09 | +1.36 | 2.73 |
| SKU-0921 | Pallet 480 u → Bay 60 u | 90 | 40 → 36 ft | 2.73 | +3.95 | -1.23 |
Refills go from 0.50 to 1.00 a day. The walk saved still wins.
Refills go from 0.25 to 2.00 a day. Replen eats the walk, so the move stays off the plan.

The planner turns a queue into a shift.
It reads the queue, the room left in each bay, what is already in flight and how fresh the picks are, then picks a shift of moves, in walking order, grouped into trips, each with a reason a floor lead can repeat.
It can only choose from the bot’s rows. Every number on screen is recomputed from those rows, never taken from its prose. This is its real output on the sample warehouse.
Slotting tools start with a drawing. This starts with a CSV.
| The usual path | SlotWise | |
|---|---|---|
| Starting point | A CAD drawing or a digital twin | A pick file; the map comes from your codes |
| Who runs it | A project team and a consultant | The bot, on every upload and on a schedule |
| What a move is judged on | Velocity rank or travel alone | Walk saved minus replen added, per day |
| How much at once | A full re-slot that ages by next season | A shift-sized plan, in trips, every day |
| Proof | The study’s forecast | A scorecard from picks after each move |
| Price | Learned on the second call | Free to start, $14 a month for the bot |

Questions operators ask first.
- A pick file: one row per pick or per item, location and day, with an item, a location code and a date. A pick count column is optional. A list of every location in the building is optional too; with it the bot knows which bays have empty slots.
