Amazon Robotics deployed DeepFleet, a generative AI foundation model that coordinates the movement of over one million robots across more than 300 global fulfillment and sortation centers, reducing robot travel time by 10%. The system acts as an intelligent traffic manager for robots, routing them around congestion to speed up order fulfillment and lower costs.

DeepFleet is a suite of foundation models trained on fleet movement data—including robot positions, goals, and interactions—from hundreds of thousands of robots in Amazon warehouses worldwide. Amazon announced the system in July 2025 alongside the milestone of its one-millionth deployed robot. The model was built using Amazon SageMaker and trained on internal warehouse and inventory data. According to Amazon Science, DeepFleet also helps assign tasks to robots, with the company viewing location prediction as a pretraining objective that teaches the AI to understand traffic flow at scale.
