Label and vintage Recognition with Vision AI

June 2, 2025

In wine retail and distribution, vintages often go unnoticed at checkout and fulfilment. Bottles from different years can share the same barcode, even when one vintage is worth 5× more than another. This leads to mispricing, poor stock control, and margin erosion — especially when high-value bottles are sold or shipped incorrectly.

Tiliter’s Vision AI Agents are trained to solve this at scale. Rather than relying on barcodes or manual checks, they analyse wine labels visually in real time to identify specific vintages, editions, or collector runs.

Built on top of thousands of label examples and learn to detect nuanced variations such as:

  • Font and print changes between vintages
  • Small design or colour adjustments across years
  • Unique vintage indicators (e.g., foil patterns, badges, or bottle embossing)
  • Misaligned or rotated label placement under varying lighting conditions

Vision AI Agents can be used in retail checkouts, warehouse packing stations, or fulfilment QA zones to:

  • Prevent underpricing of premium vintages
  • Reduce costly returns from mismatched orders
  • Automate quality assurance without slowing down operations
  • Improve pricing accuracy without changing SKUs

For mid-sized operations, even small error rates can lead to tens or hundreds of thousands in annual losses. Vision AI closes this gap, no manual scanning, no specialist training, and no changes to your infrastructure.
