Gimme Drives New Inventory Automation Software into Micro Markets


ATLANTA, Jan. 15, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Gimme, maker of innovative unattended retail technology that provides executives with sales, cash, inventory, and service data, today announced the public availability of AutoDrive, a newly-developed software designed for micro markets and traditional vending machines that automates the inventory process from start to finish.

AutoDrive completely transforms the way companies will service micro markets and vending machines. The software automatically identifies products, their placement, and inventory levels using computer vision and is verified by humans. This eliminates errors and manual effort from warehouse staff and route drivers. Route drivers can now shift focus from tracking products to delivering amazing customer experiences. 

The software is remarkably simple to use, requiring only two short steps.

  1. Fill the point of sale with pre-picked products.
  2. Use the Gimme Field app with AutoDrive to video record every product. For stacker drink machines or boxes of cany, some assumptions will be made — if the camera can't see products, it can't track it. Video is then sent from the device to the Gimme cloud for processing and a human review for accuracy. A perfect inventory count is delivered by the end of the driver's day.



AutoDrive features include:

  • Perfect planograms, perfect inventories, automatically every time. Get the benefits of a full inventory each visit.
  • Automatically Identify and count products without your field personnel spending time counting products.
  • Unmatched audit capabilities with stored photographic records from every visit.
  • Add-on to Markets and Vending apps: no new apps for your field personnel to have to download or switch over to.

AutoDrive is available for purchase today, with an unlimited usage license for up to 10 routes for $30,000 per year, and an additional $4,000 per year for additional routes. Pricing includes software training and assistance with team deployment. AutoDrive must be used with the Gimme Markets app or Gimme Vending app.
