TL;DR AI
2 min readKey summary
Kurly automated manual delivery-photo inspection by training an object detection model to spot purple boxes and paper bags in completed delivery images.
Using a data-centric approach with YOLOv11 and Ultralytics, the company improved detection quality and reduced review workload.
Kurly then expanded the model to detect vinyl-state deliveries as well, cutting review targets and errors even further.
The effort reduced manual inspection costs by 93%, and later achieved a 99.8% reduction while improving service quality.
