SAPP International and Tiliter, a leader in AI-driven computer vision technology, are thrilled to announce a strategic partnership aimed at modernising retail solutions across the globe. This collaboration focuses on the development of the next iteration of Tiliter’s AI scales, with both companies working closely to enhance the technology’s cost and quality. SAPP will handle the scaling of production and provide hardware support across regions such as the Asia-Pacific, Europe, South America, Canada, and the United States, allowing Tiliter to concentrate on advancing its innovative AI software.
With nearly three decades of experience, SAPP International has earned its position as a trusted partner to global retailers. Together, SAPP’s hardware expertise and Tiliter’s software solutions—already deployed across all Woolworths stores in Australia for e-commerce, AI-powered price checking, and Scan & Go—are set to transform the retail landscape, bringing revolutionary technology to a global audience.
Tiliter’s AI technology is revolutionising the way retailers handle non-barcoded items such as loose fruits, vegetables, baked goods, nuts, and confectionery, dramatically improving checkout efficiency. By precisely recognising subtle differences between similar products—such as various types of the same fruit or baked goods—Tiliter’s AI offers unparalleled accuracy across multiple product categories, setting a new global standard in retail technology. This advanced system has led to a 90% reduction in checkout times for shoppers and 35% for cashiers, delivering a faster, more streamlined experience.
Moreover, Tiliter’s AI helps retailers prevent fraud, reduce shrinkage, and enhance operational efficiency. By accurately identifying when barcoded items are mistakenly presented as loose produce, it ensures transaction accuracy and prevents revenue loss. The system has reduced fresh produce loss by 60% and fraud by 85%, offering significant improvements that boost profitability and support sustainable retail practices.

In discussing the partnership, Chris Sampson, Co-CEO of Tiliter, shared his excitement: “This partnership with SAPP International reflects our mutual goal of advancing retail technology. By combining our AI software capabilities with SAPP’s expertise in hardware, maintenance, and support services, we are well-positioned to meet the distinct requirements of retailers globally.”
Henry Wong, Executive Director at SAPP International, added: “Collaborating with Tiliter enables us to expand our offering and help share this groundbreaking technology with the rest of the world. While the AI scale has already made waves in the world of fruit and vegetables, its applications can easily extend to countless other industries.”
