AT&T and Wiliot said on May 28, 2026 that they are expanding their collaboration around Wiliot’s Physical AI supply chain platform, with AT&T taking responsibility for systems integration, field deployment, device certification, and operational support in enterprise environments.
Wiliot said its platform uses battery-free Bluetooth sensors called IoT Pixels to capture data such as location and temperature from goods and assets. AT&T said it will provide network infrastructure, cellular connectivity, and field execution for deployments. The companies said the arrangement goes beyond a standard connectivity agreement because AT&T will also support design, installation, asset tagging, and ongoing maintenance. Wiliot’s sensors are not cellular endpoints, so connectivity is provided through gateway devices connected to AT&T’s network.
The companies said this deployment model has already been used in retail, food and beverage, and quick-service restaurant environments. Wiliot said its platform is deployed across tens of thousands of sites, is approaching hundreds of millions of actively tracked assets, and is used with the majority of Fortune 50 companies that have active supply chain initiatives. Wiliot also cited deployment results including inventory accuracy of 99% or more, dock-to-stock time reductions from 24-48 hours to 2-6 hours, receiving labor reductions of 30-50%, mis-shipment reductions of up to 90%, and a 60% reduction in lost, damaged, and delayed packages.
