Pick-to-Light Pricing: Start Small, Prove Value, Scale

Ten wireless display devices, one Turbo II router, an annually renewable license to Voodoo's multi-tenant cloud server (up to 50 devices), REST API integration support, cloud dashboard access, and onboarding. Every piece of Starter Kit hardware carries forward into production.

Because how many devices you need depends on how you use arrows. One display can serve a single location, or 2, 4, 6 or 8 neighbouring locations by pointing an arrow at the right bin — so two warehouses with the same number of pick locations can need very different systems. We quote per configuration, and we'll happily email you several quotes (say 1:2 and 1:4) to compare. The Starter Kit exists so you can settle the ratio on your own shelving before buying at volume.

Divide your pick locations by the locations-per-device ratio you choose: 400 locations at one device per four locations is about 100 devices. Dense bin shelving with small, slow-moving SKUs usually runs 1:4 to 1:8; large bins and fast movers run 1:1 or 1:2. The estimator on this page does the arithmetic and hands the configuration to a quote request.

A single Turbo can reach up to about 300 devices at 75–100 ft, but that isn't how we size a system. We plan roughly one Turbo per 100 devices for speed and throughput, and place them so every device is within range of at least two Turbos — if one is ever offline, nothing stops. Turbos sit above the racks, about 8 feet off the floor, and Power-over-Ethernet is the preferred hookup. Your layout and how densely the devices are packed set the final count; we confirm it on a call.

There are no per-device subscriptions. The Starter Kit runs on an annually renewable cloud license that covers up to 50 devices. Production rollouts use a one-time perpetual license to your own Voodoo server, cloud-hosted or on-premises, with no device-count caps and no annual renewal.

You keep everything. Add devices and routers as you expand, and when you're ready for full-floor scale, move the same hardware to a perpetual server license. Nothing gets thrown away.

No. Devices are driven through a small, fully documented REST API, there are ready-made connectors for Odoo, ShipStation, Extensiv, QuickBooks Online, NetSuite, Oracle WMS, Manhattan, SAP and Epicor, and for a pilot even a spreadsheet can light devices. Integration used to be the hard part; AI has changed that completely. Point an AI coding assistant at our API documentation, describe what your WMS sends and what the display should show, and it writes the connector — what was a months-long integration project is now an afternoon's work for one developer.

Displays mount with magnets — a single technician can install dozens in a day. Turbo II routers sit above the racks, about 8 feet up, and run on Power-over-Ethernet, so one cable does power and data. There is no wiring to the displays, no conduit and no electrician.

Each display runs on two AAA batteries for a year or more, often years depending on activity and battery type, and the system emails you when any device runs low. Put your own pick rates and settings into the battery life calculator for an estimate. Open the battery life calculator
