Three modules running today.

Kio is hardware (the kiosk), software (Swift Module for OTA), and a live lab (SnacAdda). Each runs today; all three feed the Fashion Factory rollout.

Four Form Factors. One Platform.

Same compute, same software, four physical formats. Convert between tabletop, wall, or standing in minutes via the modular mounting system. Bin variant pairs with RFID accessories for fashion bulk-drop checkout.

Kio · Wall-mounted variant
Variant 01

Wall-mounted

Wall-fixed · space-efficient · queue-busting on shop floor.

Kio · Standing variant
Variant 02

Standing

Floor-standing · printer + scanner integrated in pedestal.

Kio · Tabletop variant
Variant 03

Tabletop

Counter-mounted · 20° tilt-adjustable · compact.

Kio · Bin RFID variant for fashion bulk-drop checkout
Variant 04

Bin · RFID

Volumetric RFID bin · 40-100L · fashion bulk drop-off.

What you'll hear about next.

Threads in active execution as of 01 - May - 2026. Each carries a Building pill — work is well-defined, owner is named, gating step is in motion.

Fashion Factory · 168-unit rollout
Building

Staged install across FY26-27.

168 production units locked for Reliance Retail Fashion Factory format. Hardware build + Swift Module preconfiguration in parallel; staged store-by-store install across FY26-27.

RFID-bin checkout flow
Building

Bulk drop-off for fashion stores.

40-100L volumetric RFID bin · paired with EAS hard-tag remover and pin collector. Customer drops a basket of tagged garments; bin reads the lot, kiosk surfaces totals for pay-and-go. Anchor format: Fashion & Apparel.

Virtual Try-On camera module
Building

Camera slot for VTO + on-kiosk preview.

Camera module slotting into Fashion & Apparel deployments. Pairs with Fynd Horizon for fit preview at the same surface where the customer pays. Adds Horizon as the upstream try-on surface.

FSM service-cycle automation
Building

Diagnostic alerts → proactive field service.

Swift Module emits diagnostics; FSM (Field Service Management) routes service tickets before downtime. Validated in SnacAdda; hardening for Fashion Factory scale. Diagnostic uptime is a tracked metric.

Tested in the Fynd office first.

SnacAdda is a full-stack self-checkout kiosk Fynd deployed in its own WeWork Andheri office. Stand-mounted Kio (SPG Series) with StoreOS + FSM integration. Office pantries lack automated checkout — Fynd built one to refine the technology in live use before customer-site deployment.
