Miso Robotics has introduced its latest prototype, Robot on a Rail (ROAR), which takes up less space and is less expensive than its Flippy predecessor—the burger-flipping kitchen robot
Jordan’s ultimate vision is to cut the cost of this robotics technology in half , making the case for a quicker return for spend-shy restaurant operators. The original product was about $60,000. The RAIL system is about $30,000.
He wants this technology to eventually become a “robot as a service” model, with instant return and “significantly increased EBITDA.” ‘The market is calling for it’ “The market is calling for it. Big restaurant companies are clamoring for this technology. Everything they’re dealing with is going in the wrong direction—food costs, labor costs, real estate costs—they’re all going up. And there just aren’t enough commercial chefs even though demand for them is exploding,” he said.
No doubt in a rising labor cost/tight labor market environment, the idea of a robot taking over tedious back-of-the-house tasks is certainly appealing. Still, proliferation of this technology was dealt a major blow earlier this month when Zume shut down its robotics operation. Not long ago, Zume was one of the most promising companies to thrust back-of-house automation into the mainstream.
A company valued near $4 billion making such a dramatic move could very well imply that the restaurant industry is just not quite ready for this type of automation. technology. But Jordan is adamant that’s not the case, and Miso Robotics is hardly alone in chasing this solution.
