Laundris has launched its revolutionary Autonomous Inventory Management Platform, a game-changer for the hospitality industry, enhancing efficiency and optimizing inventory processes through AI/ML technology and seamless integration with hotels, commercial laundries, and textile manufacturers.

AUSTIN, Texas, March 15, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Today, software startup Laundris unveiled its Autonomous Inventory Management Platform marking a momentous leap forward for the hospitality sector's embrace of digital innovation. Representing years of meticulous planning and development, this cutting-edge software seamlessly integrates with hotel property management, commercial laundry facilities, and textile manufacturing, forging a unified and autonomous ecosystem that redefines efficiency and optimizes inventory processes across the industry.
Laundris' mission is to provide plug and play software for the "Physical to Digital" transformation era, driving automation and operational transformation through the seamless connection of properties, commercial laundries, and supply chains. Powered by AI/ML technologies, Laundris promises advanced data insights, streamlined processes, and unparalleled customer experiences.
In collaboration with key industry partners such as Hotel Facility Concepts USA (HFC), Garnier-Thiebaut USA (GT Linens), and Cooperative Laundry, Laundris has brought its vision to life with the grand opening of the citizenM Hotel in downtown Austin, Texas. The property is entirely outfitted by GT Linens with embedded RFID Technology, the property exemplifies smart data capture, inventory management and forecasting of physical items to flow through the Laundris platform for seamless inventory management.
Functioning at its core, textiles are embedded with RFID tags upon manufacture, enabling comprehensive tracking throughout their lifecycle—from distribution to delivery, use, and processing. This lifecycle data not only ensures operational efficiency but also provides invaluable insights and analytics previously unseen in the industry. The synergy between technology and industry expertise propels Laundris' vision forward, setting a new standard of excellence within the hospitality sector and beyond.
The Laundris Platform is the world's first and only patented industrial automation solution, revolutionizing laundry procurement and management, providing unprecedented levels of efficiency and transparency to an outdated, analog system. Laundris' platform not only updates ordering and management processes but also facilitates seamless communication, tracking and forecasting among hotel properties, commercial laundry facilities and textile manufacturers. This level of collaboration represents a new standard of operational excellence, setting a new precedent for the future of the hospitality industry.
As Mark Spavale of HFC puts it, "You can save so much time with data, you can convince so many people with data, you can drive with data and inspire so many new ideas." JP Krukowicz of GT Linens adds, "Laundris gives us the ability to go to market faster while optimizing inventory and thereby reducing cost through the data-driven insights of our customers. It gives us the ability to know the number of washes per item and follow the rotation of the linen." Sang Cho of Cooperative Laundry agrees that the Laundry Platform brings transparency to all parties involved in the inventory lifecycle process, specifically that of his organization with his valued hospitality clients.
"It's taken us years to bring all these components together for the connected experience. The collaboration between our key partners at HFC, GT Linens and Cooperative Laundry marks the inaugural integration of the key stakeholders in a full turn-key solution. This collective effort represents a significant stride toward realizing a future driven by precision technology, poised to revolutionize the hospitality sector and rectify inefficiencies within the supply chain", says Don Ward, Founder and CEO of Laundris.
