Cainiao has launched an industry partnership for AI and embodied intelligence, opening its warehouse network to external partners and making dozens of logistics operating scenarios available for technology training, validation and deployment. These scenarios cover warehouse picking, intelligent navigation, delivery, high-altitude inspection, security work, aviation logistics and auto parts management, and partners can use the network for joint research and development, real-machine training and business validation. Cainiao is also introducing a service called Global Tech in Three Days for AI computing businesses, robotics companies and component suppliers, designed to support supply chains from prototype testing to scaled delivery and overseas operations. The service draws on Cainiao's express delivery, air freight and warehousing operations and includes customs support, forward and reverse logistics, insurance for high-value cargo, forward warehousing and spare-parts management. Under the model, global express services are intended for research and development testing, customer demonstrations, product fulfilment and small-batch replenishment, while air freight is aimed at larger shipments including AI infrastructure equipment, control systems and core modules, and the warehouse network is positioned for regional stockholding, multi-country warehousing and local delivery. Cainiao said its network spans multiple countries, industries and operating environments, covering domestic pickup, cross-border line-haul and overseas fulfilment, and it has expanded pilot deployments across express delivery, eCommerce, fast-moving consumer goods and auto parts.
