Sereact, NVIDIA, Nebius, CEVA Logistics and Zalando Close the Training Loop for Robotic Returns Handling
Key Highlights
- ➤Sereact, NVIDIA, Nebius, CEVA Logistics and Zalando launch closed-loop returns automation.
- ➤Zalando returns handling is first deployment at selected CEVA Logistics fulfillment centers.
- ➤Policy update cycles shrink from weeks to days through automated simulation and retraining.
- ➤Sereact has raised over $145 million with Zalando’s participation.
- ➤Nebius reference architecture runs on EU data centers; customers pay compute and storage used.
NVIDIA supplies the simulation, world models and agent skills. Nebius runs them on its Physical AI Workbench. Sereact's Cortex is the robot brain they train. The initial rollout targets Zalando’s returns handling at CEVA Logistics’ fulfillment center—one of the most variable processes in eCommerce logistics.
BERLIN, Oct. 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sereact, NVIDIA, Nebius, CEVA Logistics and Zalando today announced a closed training loop for Cortex, Sereact's robot brain. The first deployment is Zalando returns handling in selected CEVA Logistics fulfillment centers. NVIDIA provides Isaac Sim, Isaac Lab, Cosmos and its Physical AI Data Factory skills. Operated through the company’s EU data centers, Nebius runs them on the Physical AI Workbench, its open-source framework for physical AI. Sereact brings Cortex and the episodes its robots record on the returns line. What a robot gets wrong on Monday can come back as a tested policy update within days, where it used to take weeks.
