Increasing restaurant profitability through AI OS
We are building an AI Operating System that enables restaurant brands to rapidly scale by licensing their recipes and rolling out their cuisine across a network of our next-generation kitchens. These kitchens are optimized specifically for delivery, pick up, and take out, letting brands expand their geographic presence with minimal upfront cost and increased profitability.
We currently live in San Mateo, CA, and plan to keep the company based here after YC.
San Mateo is where our founding team lives, close to the Bay Area food tech ecosystem and key partners. Staying local lets us move fast and deepen relationships essential to growing our network of kitchens and brand partners.
