Corvus One video transcript
Meet Corvus One, your autonomous inventory management system. Fully autonomous, lights-out data capture. Powered by third-generation Corvus intelligence, trained on millions of interactions from the real world. Scan barcodes, find empties, and count cases. Works any shift, day or night. No pilot, reflectors, or stickers for navigation.
How Corvus One Works
Corvus One helps operations and finance/auditing teams by automating most of the inventory check for pallet-level reserves, as well as certain bulk locations or single-deep case counting / each counting locations. The output is daily discrepancy and exception reporting compared to the WMS (or standalone), maintaining a historical record of videos/pictures while reducing labor exposure.
Designed, manufactured and tested in Mountain View, California
Autonomous Flights, Scheduled at Will
Corvus One flies in 3D space without needing people following it, or needing hundreds of beacons installed. Schedule flights on your terms — the system handles the rest, scanning locations and flagging discrepancies automatically.
Day or Night Shift, or Lights-Out
Each Corvus One system has 14 cameras onboard for omni-directional collision prevention, to work in active shifts while not disrupting work, when used safely. Corvus One can also fly overnight, with the lights off, and building empty.
On-Prem Data, Discrepancy Reports & Audit Trail
Your inventory data is stored on-premise. Discrepancy reports, exception alerts (such as label errors), and a full historical audit trail — with photos, video, and scans from every flight, all synced.
Combine with Trident™ for End-to-End Inventory Visibility, Connected to Any WMS
Corvus One handles autonomous scanning. Corvus Trident™ captures every forklift move in real time. Together, they form end-to-end inventory visibility — connecting to any WMS via API, data upload, or running standalone.

"The Corvus Robotics drones are... doing things that there's really not a lot of value to put an individual on, but to the business, it's priceless."
GNC Holdings
"The speed at which we have scaled this technology across nine sites reflects the value it is delivering to our operations."
Southern Glazer's Wine & Spirits
"Corvus One delivers the consistent accuracy we need to protect revenue and operate to tight forecasts."
Dermalogica (Unilever)
"We used to dedicate labor resources to do inventory audits. Now we have drones, which allows us to reallocate our resources to more value-adding tasks like picking or replenishment."

AIMS — Autonomous Inventory Management System
Regardless of autonomous cycle counting drones or material handling equipment pallet tracking, the data feeds into a single source of inventory truth. AIMS pulls the never-before-collected ground truth data to power slot optimization, labor efficiency tracking, financial decisions including inventory / labor planning across your operations, all tied deeply to how your team actually works today.

Request ROI BriefingFrequently Asked Questions
Common questions about deploying Corvus One autonomous inventory drones in your warehouse. Don't see yours? Talk to our team.
Yes. We can give an occupancy percentage as well, for utilization optimization.
Yes, depending on the organization of the cases. Items must be visible from at least one angle, and if they're palletized cases, ideally in a regular tie-high. Please contact our sales team with pictures of your case locations for verification.
Yes! Many of our Fortune 500 customers have Corvus One drones fly during active shifts. Corvus One has omnidirectional collision avoidance and will stop before people or forklifts. However, for added safety, we'll always advise workers to wait until the drone is finished in an aisle before entering.
Yes! Corvus One drones can fly in fully dark environments with all lights out, to save electricity and be green. No one has to be in the facility when Corvus One drones fly, saving labor and energy costs.
Yes. We offer Corvus One for Cold Chain, drones specifically designed and manufactured for cold chain environments and rated for temperature zones down to -20°F. Learn more on the Cold Chain page.
Thankfully, no! Autonomous inventory drones shouldn't require much external setup at all. They're supposed to be autonomous, after all. You can keep your existing barcodes, rack layouts, location barcodes, etc. Putting up hundreds or thousands of stickers or adding expensive reflectors would be a bummer!
Luckily, Corvus One inventory drones fly without needing thousands of location stickers or reflector beacons. We can likely just reconfigure the software map remotely; you won't need to change any racking labels or anything like that.
No. Corvus One inventory drones fly fully autonomously without Wi-Fi, so you never have to worry about dead spots or weak signals causing drone drifts or crashes.
Likely, yes. Corvus One drones carry an expensive, industrial-grade barcode scanner, just like associates on the floor of the world's largest warehouses. Whatever your associates on the floor can scan, we can also scan, regardless of 1D or 2D barcodes, sideways or upside orientation, through shrink wrap, etc. To confirm, please email our sales team a picture of your barcode labels.
No. Corvus One drones use AI to find your barcode labels wherever they are: sideways, upside down, ripped, or missing (we'll flag them as an exception if they're unreadable). We consolidate these into operational suggestions to improve inventory quality, but you are free to place the barcodes nearly anywhere you're currently placing them on your pallets.
Of course not! Corvus One drones fly themselves in the warehouse. What would be the point of an autonomous drone that constantly needed a person's supervision?
Candidly, probably not. Corvus One is built for large enterprise facilities, typically 100,000 square feet and up. At smaller sites the economics rarely work in your favor, and we'd rather be upfront than sell you a system that won't pay for itself. If you operate at enterprise scale, we'd love to talk.
Yes! We custom-built our drones for you, and since they only fly indoors, there are no FAA restrictions for taking off in your warehouse.
Yes, we'll work with your facility IT and WMS team to connect our warehouse drone with your data. We have a Corvus API, in addition to a suite of software for simple data import, export, and comparisons. Our team has worked with all major WMS platforms (such as SAP, Manhattan, JDA, and AS/400), and we've readily adapted to legacy, homegrown, or niche WMS as well.
We have on-prem data storage (where your data is stored locally at the site, not on the cloud), as well as paid cloud hosting solutions.
Corvus Robotics maintains a SOC 2 Type 2 report, plus SOC 2 Type 1 and SOC 1 Type 1 reports. SOC 2 is an attestation, which means an independent auditor examines the controls and issues an opinion. No certificate exists to award. Our auditor examined Corvus Robotics against the Trust Services Criteria for security, availability, and confidentiality, and issued an unqualified opinion. The Type 2 report covers how those controls operated across a defined period, where a Type 1 report covers their design at a single point in time. The SOC 1 Type 1 report addresses controls relevant to customer financial reporting. These are restricted-use reports, shared under NDA with prospective customers during an active evaluation. Evaluations begin with an ROI briefing request.
Corvus Robotics is certified to ISO/IEC 27001, the international standard for information security management, by an independent registrar. The Corvus One drone battery is certified to UL 2054 by TÜV Rheinland, and is tested to UN 38.3, the United Nations standard for safe lithium battery transport. The system is CE marked and RoHS compliant for the European market, which are declarations of conformity issued by the manufacturer. For information security controls, Corvus Robotics also maintains SOC 1 and SOC 2 reports, which are independent third-party attestations.
Corvus One drones are designed, manufactured, assembled and tested at Corvus Robotics headquarters in Mountain View, California. Corvus builds its own airframes rather than modifying consumer or industrial drones from overseas manufacturers, which is why the flight stack, the camera system and the onboard AI are designed together. Every unit ships from California.
You'll need 1 Ethernet connection and 1 power drop for the landing pad.
Yes. Please contact our sales team with dates, the approximate number of locations to be validated, and any other relevant information. You will need to be a Corvus One customer with our system installed to take advantage of this.
Not one of our offerings today. Have you successfully implemented RFID tags for your pallets already?
The drone cameras and barcode scanner can only see the front-most item, so multiple-deep stored locations can't be scanned.
