About

SIMPL Automation is a Waltham, Massachusetts-based warehouse automation company that developed the ADAPTIV ASRS ecosystem — a modular, brownfield-friendly platform for incremental automation of factory and warehouse environments. The system supports configurations from manual pick-to-cart operations up to fully automated Goods-to-Person fulfillment without disruptive rip-and-replace deployments. SIMPL Automation was selected for the inaugural MassRobotics Accelerator Program, nominated for the 2025 Robot of the Year award, and counted Staples among its deployment partners. The company was acquired by The Home Depot in April 2026 to accelerate supply chain automation.
