Micromart offers autonomous grab-and-go retail through independent local operators. TULU is a fully managed amenity platform with one accountable partner across rentals, retail, mobility, printing, and services.
Micromart deploys autonomous "grab and go" smart stores — tap a card, take an item, walk out — using product-recognition sensors instead of a cashier. It's delivered through a network of independent, vetted local operators rather than a single national provider.
One accountable partner vs. a local operator network
Micromart's product is delivered through independent, vetted local operators rather than a single national provider — which can mean variable service quality and support across properties or portfolios. TULU is one partner, one contract, one point of accountability everywhere it operates.
Beyond autonomous retail
Micromart's offering is limited to autonomous retail — no rentals, mobility, printing, or resident services. TULU builds all of that into one platform.
Fully managed
TULU installs, stocks, and maintains the amenity as part of a single managed relationship.
International reach.
TULU operates internationally; Micromart's coverage is US only.

Who installs and manages Micromart units?
Micromart uses a network of independent local operators rather than a single managed provider, which is a key difference from TULU's single-partner model.
