Amazon Retires the Blue Jay Warehouse Robot

Four months after presenting Blue Jay as its newest warehouse system - a single workspace where several robotic arms pick, stow and consolidate about 75% of the item types Amazon stocks - Amazon said it was no longer using it in operations, keeping only the underlying technology.

Amazon introduced Blue Jay on 22 October 2025 as a system coordinating several robotic arms in one workspace, doing the work of three separate robotic stations for picking, stowing and consolidating. [S]
It was being tested in production at a facility in South Carolina, where it could handle roughly 75% of all the item types Amazon stores. [S]
On 25 February 2026 Amazon added a note to that announcement saying it is no longer using Blue Jay in operations, and that the technology behind it will continue to support employees across the network. [S]
Reporting on the decision attributes it to the robot being expensive and difficult to manufacture, awkward to fit into existing warehouse workflows, and out of step with a shift towards smaller, more flexible facilities. [1]
Project Eluna, the agentic AI system announced alongside Blue Jay and piloted at a Tennessee fulfilment centre, was not withdrawn. [S]

An established consumer-tech outlet reporting the withdrawal directly and giving reasons - manufacturing cost, workflow fit and a pivot to smaller facilities - though it dates the decision only to early 2026 rather than to the 25 February update.^[1]
