What this means
The short version, without reliability jargon
No public source gives the total operating hours, exact number of robots, failed attempts, downtime or frequency of human help.
The deployment and output milestone are real public evidence, but they are not enough to calculate how reliably or with how much human help Digit completed the work.

What the evidence says
The public record establishes a real commercial workflow, but its layers are uneven: GXO confirms the pilot, the commercial agreement is jointly announced, and Agility alone reports 100,000 totes and one year of full-time deployment. No source publishes operating hours, attempts, scheduled time, downtime, recovery time, autonomous-time share or intervention frequency, so availability and task success cannot be calculated.
01 / Reliability fields
What is known—and missing
Runtime / operating hoursTime accumulated while a robot is operating under the source's stated rules. It may be summed across several robots and does not necessarily include pauses or downtime.Learn more →
Not disclosed: Not disclosed
Availability / uptimeThe share of a defined scheduled period in which a system was able to perform the required function. The time boundary, required function and rules for counting downtime must be stated.Learn more →
Not disclosed: Not disclosed
Human interventionA human action needed to keep, restore or redirect the robot's work, such as a reset, remote correction or physical assistance.Learn more →
Not disclosed: Not disclosed
MTBFMean time between failures: the average operating time between one defined failure and the next in a repairable system.Learn more →
Not disclosed: Not disclosed
MTTRAn average time associated with restoring operation after a failure. The acronym is used for repair, restoration or recovery in different contexts, so the included steps must be defined.Learn more →

What each source supports
Commercial status
Operator corroborated
Multi-year Robots-as-a-Service agreement
GXO confirms the proof-of-concept pilot. A joint company release hosted by Agility then announces the multi-year agreement and describes Digit robots as fully operational in the live warehouse.

Task output
Manufacturer reported
100,000+ ToteA reusable container used to move goods or components through a warehouse or factory.Here, the tote count measures reported task output. It does not state how long Digit worked or how often it needed help.Learn more → moved at the Flowery Branch facility
Agility alone reports the cumulative milestone. It provides no operating-hour, attempt, retry, fleet-size or intervention denominator, so the number is output rather than a success or reliability rate.
Sources: [4]
Deployment duration
Manufacturer reported
One-year anniversary of full-time deployment reported
Agility's anniversary language establishes elapsed calendar time, not robot operating hours, scheduled time or availability. GXO has not published a corresponding duration metric in the reviewed sources.
Metric interpretationDifferent metric — not availability
- Source wording
- full-time deployment · one-year anniversary calendar time
- Tested against
- Technical availability
- Normalized result
- Not calculated
An anniversary establishes how long the commercial program had existed. It does not disclose how many hours the robots were scheduled, operating or unavailable.

Task definition
Operator corroborated
Move totes between autonomous mobile robots and a conveyor
The site and AMR-to-conveyor workflow are described by GXO for the pilot and repeated in the later joint commercial announcement.
Sources: [1] [3]
Commercial start
Manufacturer reported
5 June 2024
Agility identifies this as the start of commercial operations. The later joint agreement confirms commercial status but does not independently restate the start date.
Sources: [2] [3]
Autonomy boundary
Manufacturer reported
Autonomous operation asserted; autonomous-time share not quantified
Agility describes the commercial workflow as autonomous. No reviewed source separates autonomous execution, supervision, teleoperation, exception handling or recovery time.
Sources: [3] [5]
Fleet scope
Manufacturer reported
Multiple Digit robots described; exact deployed count not published
The commercial announcements use plural language but provide no unit count or unit-level output and runtime distribution.

How the public record changed
This is a history of public knowledge, not proof that robot performance changed on these dates. Earlier states were reconstructed later from dated sources; the reconstruction date remains visible.
GXO confirms a proof-of-concept pilot
GXO publicly confirmed a Digit pilot for moving totes between autonomous mobile robots and a conveyor. The operator described the workflow but did not publish operating hours, output, failures, downtime, interventions or fleet size.
0/9 applicable fields disclosedCoverage at this knowledge date—not performance.
No tracked reliability field had a qualifying public value.
Reconstruction basis and limits
Reconstructed from GXO's dated proof-of-concept announcement using only information public in that source.
- GXO identified the facility and the AMR-to-conveyor tote workflow.
- The deployment stage was a proof-of-concept pilot.
- No tracked reliability field had a qualifying public value.
- A described workflow did not establish commercial operation or measured reliability.
The pilot becomes a commercial agreement
GXO and Agility announced a multi-year Robots-as-a-Service agreement and described Digit robots as fully operational in the live warehouse. Commercial maturity advanced, but the announcement added no quantified runtime, output, availability, failures or intervention data.
0/9 applicable fields disclosedCoverage at this knowledge date—not performance.
- Task outputTask described; volume not disclosed →Not disclosed
- Autonomy modeNot disclosed →Operating mode not quantified
- Fleet sizeNot disclosed →Multiple robots; count not disclosed
Reconstruction basis and limits
Reconstructed cumulatively from GXO's pilot announcement and the dated June 2024 commercial deployment announcements.
- Agility identified 5 June 2024 as the start of commercial operations.
- GXO and Agility announced a multi-year RaaS agreement on 27 June 2024.
- The announcement described multiple Digit robots but did not state the deployed count.
- Commercial status is not a reliability metric.
- No denominator allowed availability, task success or intervention rate to be calculated.
Current public evidence state

No source publishes operating hours, attempts, scheduled time, downtime, recovery time, autonomous-time share or intervention frequency, so availability and task success cannot be calculated.
