Case Study: Slip Robotics boosts freight reliability and fleet uptime with Foxglove

How Slip Robotics improved autonomous freight reliability using Foxglove

Slip Robotics, a company that provides autonomous loading and unloading robots for freight transport, faced significant challenges with their debugging and data analysis workflows. Their engineers were slowed down by a fragmented process of manually retrieving and processing large ROS bag files, which made troubleshooting inefficient and hampered their ability to scale their fleet. This created bottlenecks across their operations and delayed issue resolution.

To solve this, Foxglove integrated its platform to automatically ingest and visualize robot telemetry data. The solution streamlined data access via an API, eliminated manual file handling, and provided tools for both technical and non-technical teams to collaborate. As a result, Slip Robotics saved 90% in debugging time, increased fleet uptime by 30%, and sped up issue resolution by 5x, enabling them to scale their operations with greater reliability.
