Smart Bay

Smart Bay is SHEKEL’s most precise shelf intelligence system, built for micro-markets and unattended retail where shoppers take products directly from open shelves. A dedicated WeightAI™ IoT load sensor installs under every individual shelf, delivering product-level recognition, grab-and-go checkout, and shelf-precise loss preventionת without cameras, RFID, or structural modifications.

Smart Bay is designed for micro-markets and unattended retail environments where shoppers grab products directly from open shelves without a checkout counter or staff. It enables fully autonomous grab-and-go retailת identifying every product taken, charging only what was actually removed, and alerting on any unauthoriזed removal in real time.

No cameras. No RFID. Smart Bay uses WeightAI™ IoT load sensors exclusively. Every product is identified by its unique weight signature with 99.8% accuracy, no tagging, no scanning, and no privacy concerns associated with camera-based systems. It works on any product type and requires no recalibration when the product range changes.

Smart Bay’s WeightAI™ IoT load sensors deliver 99.8% product recognition accuracy across all product types, packaged goods, fresh items, and irregular shapes. Every product is identified by its unique weight signature at the exact shelf it sits on, with no tagging, no scanning, and no calibration required when the product range changes.

WeightAI™ identifies every product by its unique weight signature. As a shopper takes an item from the shelf, the IoT load sensor under that shelf detects the weight change and matches it to the product’s known weight profile with 99.8% accuracy. No barcode, no scan, no customer input required, the system identifies the product automatically.

The item is automatically removed from the shopper’s basket. WeightAI™ tracks every addition and return in real time at the individual shelf level. When a product is returned, the weight change is detected instantly and the basket updates accordingly. No false positives, no manual correction needed.

No. Smart Bay’s IoT load sensors install directly under existing shelves, and specialty fixtures. No structural modifications, no fixture replacement, and no infrastructure overhaul required. Retailers add WeightAI™ intelligence to the shelving they already own.

Smart Bay detects every unauthorised product removal at the exact shelf it occurred on, in real time, based on retailer-defined security rules. Security personnel receive an instant, shelf-specific alert the moment an unauthorised removal is identified, giving loss prevention teams actionable intelligence rather than a gondola-level approximation. Every shelf interaction is logged, creating a complete audit trail.

Each shelf is monitored independently by its own IoT load sensor, tracking stock levels per shelf position in real time, with no manual counting or scanning. Predictive restocking alerts fire per shelf before stock runs out. Inventory records are always current, even when the product range changes, and all data is accessible remotely via the cloud dashboard.

Yes, this is Smart Bay’s defining capability. Because every shelf has its own dedicated IoT load sensor, Smart Bay attributes every product movement to the exact shelf it happened on. This shelf-level precision is what makes Smart Bay the right solution for micro-markets and unattended retail, where product-level accountability matters for every transaction.

Smart Bay captures shelf-granular shopper behaviour data, including which specific shelf positions shoppers interact with, which product levels drive the most engagement, and where dwell time concentrates. This per-shelf data enables merchandisers to make layout and ranging decisions based on actual shopper behaviour, not aisle-level averages.

Yes. All shelf monitoring, inventory data, loss prevention alerts, and analytics are accessible via a remote cloud-based platform. Stock levels, security incidents, and shopper interaction data all flow in real time, with no staff required on site to manage the system. Planograms and product configurations can be updated remotely.

Yes. Smart Bay integrates with existing retail management and POS systems. Stock levels, basket data, loss prevention incidents, and shopper analytics all feed directly into the retailer’s existing management infrastructure, no new systems or infrastructure required.
