Understanding Vending with AI

Double your sales, cut waste, and give customers the frictionless shopping they expect.

You’re under pressure to boost sales, reduce waste, and keep customers happy. With AI-driven vending machines, smart kiosks, and automated stores, built in Sweden & Finland, you finally get a retail solution designed around your goals.

Traditional vending leaves cash on the table. You can’t see what’s selling until it’s gone. Customers walk away when they can’t grab more than one item quickly. And every week, unsold food goes straight in the bin by eating your profits.

The old way costs you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need new machines?

Yes. Unvend.ai kiosks are intelligent systems built for AI vision from the ground up. The kiosk is the core of the experience, as it controls access with a smart door-opening function. Customers are identified and verified before the door opens, making the process secure and seamless. Traditional machines cannot support this level of integration. With Unvend.ai, hardware and software are designed to work together, delivering accurate product recognition, smooth transactions, and effortless use for both customers and operators.

Does it really increase sales?

Yes. Operators using Unvend.ai have seen transaction values nearly double, with more items purchased per sale compared to traditional vending. At the same time, food waste has gone down, especially in workplace locations where customers appreciate the flexibility to buy exactly what they want, when they want it.
