At Cisco Live 2025 in San Diego, Intel and Cisco—alongside ecosystem partners like Chooch—are showcasing the future of edge AI. In the Intel Retail IQ Showcase, Chooch will demonstrate real-time inventory automation on Cisco Servers powered by Intel® Xeon® 6 processors running at the edge.
From Insight to Action: Reimagining Inventory Management
In Supply Chain Management-intensive industries, like Healthcare, Retail and QSR, inventory processes still rely on traditional technologies like RFID, barcode scans and manual counts—methods that were never built for real-time visibility nor powerful enough for on demand, automated ordering. These legacy approaches slow down operations, delay restocking, and leave businesses vulnerable to stockouts, overstock, and missed revenue opportunities.
Chooch replaces outdated inventory practices with AI that sees, understands, and acts in real time—no barcode scans, no tracking through tracking technologies, nor manual inputs. When an item is removed or misplaced, our system recognizes it immediately, updates the dashboard, and can trigger a reorder—all without human input.

Live at Cisco Live: Edge AI in Action
At Cisco Live, Chooch is showcasing a live autonomous inventory management demo using advanced AI to analyze real-time video feeds, edge inferencing, and AI decision-making—all optimized and powered by Intel® Xeon® 6 processors and orchestrated on Cisco infrastructure.
This live demo gives attendees a firsthand look at what autonomous inventory really looks like in the field—not a simulation, but a working system using standard hardware and real conditions for automated reordering, demand forecasting and productivity improvements.
This demo shows:
- Real-time visual monitoring using off-the-shelf cameras
- Chooch’s Vision AI identifying inventory removal or bin depletion in milliseconds
- Native inferencing on Intel® Xeon® 6 CPU—eliminating the need for edge GPUs
- OpenVINO™ optimization accelerating deployment and inference speeds
- Autonomous actions: inventory system updates, restock alerts, and live dashboard visibility
What makes this powerful: everything runs at the edge—so inventory is tracked instantly, without delays, manual scans, or cloud lag.

Why Edge Matters
Running AI at the edge demands powerful, efficient hardware. Intel® Xeon® 6 processors with Intel® AMX deliver exactly that—native CPU inferencing, no GPUs required. Supporting a wide range of precision types, these new Intel® Xeon® 6 processors with P-cores are purpose-built to meet these demands.
That means:
- Higher security: Meeting organizations strict enterprise security requirements.
- Faster response: Inventory changes are detected and acted on in milliseconds—right where the data is generated.
- Lower costs: AI runs on existing CPUs, so there’s no need for expensive GPUs or cooling systems.
- Easier to scale: The solution fits into current systems and is ready to expand across multiple locations.
With OpenVINO™, Chooch fine-tunes its models for high-performance inferencing and accelerated rollout. This toolchain shortens development cycles and makes AI inference more scalable, especially in bandwidth- or resource-constrained settings.
This unlocks a secure enterprise-ready, deployable AI for industries that can’t afford latency, risk, or downtime.
Beyond Retail: Scalable Across Environments
While the showcase focuses on retail and QSR, the same platform powers complex, high-volume inventory environments across industries. From fulfillment centers to distributed store networks, Chooch brings real-time visibility and automation wherever it’s needed. Whether it’s a hospital system, warehouse, or stockroom network, Chooch gives teams a real-time view of inventory—cutting manual work, improving accuracy, and helping avoid stockouts. It’s the same core AI platform—built to plug and play, scale fast and fit seamlessly into your existing systems.
