Autonomous Outdoor Operations
Driverless electric yard trucks for manufacturing and logistics.
Reduce costs. Reduce errors. Reduce emissions.
Reduce costs. Reduce errors. Reduce emissions.
Our Mission
We automate outdoor operations for industrial sites and logistics yards, making them safer, greener and more efficient.
Manual operations are inefficient, expensive to run, as well as dangerous and polluting
ex9 automates outdoor operations for manufacturing and industrial sites, logistics yards and distribution centres, improving safety and efficiency while reducing costs and emissions.
Lost time is the norm in manual operations:
With ex9:
- Trailers sit idle or can't be found
- Driver no-shows can cause a standstill
- Congestion at peak times causes bottlenecks
With ex9:
- Reduce driver idle time by 30% and limit absenteeism
- Find trailers more quickly
- Manage traffic peaks with ease
Manual operations costs can rise rapidly:
With ex9, a 4-truck deployment can save over 3 millions euros, with an ROI of 800% in 5 years.
- Labor costs continue to rise
- Human error can cause expensive equipment damage

Humans make mistakes:
With ex9, create a safer environment for employees and 3rd-party truck drivers, eliminating human error.
- Fatigue-related errors can cause accidents
- Labor shortages and high staff turnover create knowledge gaps
- Safety protocols have often been "added on"
With ex9, create a safer environment for employees and 3rd-party truck drivers, eliminating human error.
Manual operations often depend on polluting diesel trucks:
ex9 uses retrofitted electric trucks:
- Idling trucks and unnecessary movements generate CO2
- Exposure to diesel fumes can damage employee health
ex9 uses retrofitted electric trucks:
- Reduce CO2 emissions up to 94%
- Reduce idling and optimize charging times
Autonomous Outdoor Operations as a Service
ex9's integrated platform includes autonomous electric vehicles, fleet management software as well as a remote monitoring and control room — all delivered as a service.
Autonomous Intelligence
Our advanced autonomous driving software is engineered for the safe movement of heavy-load trailers with ultra-high precision, efficiency, and complete operational visibility.
Fully autonomous forward/reverse manoeuvring, coupling/de-coupling and “hands-free” battery charging deliver driverless operations 24/7, even across complex and dynamic site layouts.

Electric Yard Truck with 360° Sensors
Our retrofitted yard truck combines industrial-grade performance with a circular economy approach, extending vehicle life, reducing waste, and enabling full electrification.
State-of-the-art sensors deliver ISO-compliant safety, robust anti-collision capabilities, and the precise perception required for fully autonomous operations.

Digital Twin for Planned Deployments
Our AI-boosted tools enable fast setup with minimal operational disruption, ensuring rapid value delivery. The foundation of every deployment is the creation of a precise digital twin. On-site data capture builds a complete digital replica of your site, enabling accurate mapping, planning, and simulation in a virtual environment to reduce risk before real-world deployment begins.
Fleet Management Platform
ex9's fleet management software centralises movements, coordinating dispatch, task scheduling, and trailer flow in real time. Integrated data analytics provide full visibility on operations, highlighting bottlenecks and optimising efficiency.
A full dashboard provides visibility into your operations in real-time (mission queue, diagnostic, KPIs and data analytics etc.)

Remote monitoring & control
Our centralised system ensures operational resilience and safety by integrating a back-up tele-driving module in the event of unforeseen circumstances such as obstacles which are not quickly removed.
The control tower provides augmented perception with a real-time, enriched vision of operations, letting an operator execute safe remote control to carry out necessary manoeuvres.

Your automation partner
We don’t expect perfect conditions. We work side-by-side with you on a phased deployment based on site readiness, business priorities, KPIs and ROI goals.
Our system is flexible by design. Start with one shuttle run or bay area then gradually scale out from there as you evaluate impact and your needs evolve.
