Gideon has launched Trey, an autonomous forklift for truck trailer loading and unloading operations. 

Trey loads and unloads pallets entirely autonomously, saving more than 80% of a worker's time. It operates safely, consistently and reliably in dynamic environments, working side by side with people. 

"We at Gideon believe that we can help exponentially grow humanity's ability to move goods by automating the most complex materials handling workflows," says Matija Kopic, Gideon CEO and co-founder. "The world needs new ways of solving challenges. Our new way is to give superpowers to the millions of essential workers who keep our supply chains running. With the help of our customers, partners and investors, we've built an AMR specifically for the task of loading and unloading truck trailers, augmenting human talent.”

Global logistics leader DB Schenker is one of the early Gideon customers and Series A investor. 

"Here at DB Schenker, we draw on 150 years of logistics experience, and we've always focused on bringing innovation to deliver the efficiency and excellence expected by our clients. This is why we are excited to see new solutions from Gideon. Our projects so far are promising demonstrated, real-potential use cases that help us transform inbound and outbound logistics operations," says DB Schenker board member Xavier Garijo, who is also on the Gideon board.
