In this episode of The New Warehouse Podcast, Kevin chats with Jon Miller Schwartz, Co-Founder and CEO of Ultra, a Brooklyn-based robotics company focused on bringing AI-powered warehouse robots into operations. Ultra is tackling one of the most repetitive yet complex tasks in e-commerce fulfillment: order packing. Rather than building robots that rely on rigid programming, Ultra is applying modern AI models to enable greater flexibility, adaptability, and real-world deployment. 

During the conversation, Jon explains why advances in AI have unlocked tasks once considered impossible for robots, why packaging was the right starting point, and how Ultra’s approach is reshaping throughput, predictability, and labor challenges in warehouses today. The discussion also explores ROI, workforce impact, and what the next generation of AI-powered warehouse robots can handle.
