Miso Robotics develops and manufactures artificial intelligence-driven robots that assist chefs to make food at restaurants. The robots help chefs in preparation work, grilling, frying, and final assembly in commercial kitchens. The company offers Flippy, a burger-grilling robot, which grabs unwrapped burger patties, moves them into position on a hot grill, keeps track of each burger’s cook-time and temperature, then alerts human cooks when it’s time to apply cheese or other toppings. It was founded in 2016 and is based in Pasadena, California.
