Autonomous Checkout Experiences

Standard AI & Circle K Retrofitted a Store for More Convenience

Standard AI and Circle K worked together to retrofit a store in Arizona with an AI-powered, checkout-free and fully autonomous experience. Now, the frictionless checkout system helps shoppers to skip the checkout line altogether and both in-store team members and customers benefit from a smoother overall experience.

The system makes the most of artificial intelligence cameras that are strategically placed throughout the store so that the products people pick up are noted. Purchases are automatically recorded within the Circle K mobile app so that time is saved and inventory is appropriately tracked. This store is said to be "the first of a series of autonomous checkout experiences in Arizona" and it leverages cutting-edge technologies to enhance customer service.
