Instacart built Capsight, an end-to-end platform that transforms their fleet of AI-powered Caper smart carts into a distributed data collection and model improvement engine. The system consists of three components: Capsight Collector (intelligent on-device data capture from cart sensors), Capsight Depot (cloud platform for data management with VLM-based pre-labeling that reduces annotation costs by 70%), and Capsight Learner (Ray-based distributed training platform). This closed-loop system reduced model iteration cycles from one month to one week and achieved over 5% accuracy improvements within weeks of deployment by systematically capturing diverse real-world production data.
