Every cycle count checked, line by line.
Datapel, an inventory and warehouse platform, gave TobyBot a weekly goal: check every count against the system and flag what doesn't match.

What they set up
Counting stock still takes people on the floor. Checking every count against the system, line by line, is where the hours go, and a wrong number flows straight into purchase orders.
The bot connects to the warehouse system through MCP and flags anything that doesn't match. Datapel's team reviews each change before it goes back in. Stock monitoring and purchase order replenishment are next.
