Restaurants are Turning to Robots for a Reason: Flippy is making waves! Recently, Forbes highlighted how robots like Flippy are taking over kitchens at some of your favorite restaurants. From easing labor shortages to cutting costs and boosting efficiency, automation is quickly becoming the secret weapon for restaurant success.
Big Names, Big Moves: The Forbes article spotlights the game-changing decisions by restaurant brands like Sweetgreen and White Castle. Sweetgreen, a fast-casual chain known for its salads, is moving toward full automation in its locations over the next five years. Meanwhile, White Castle, America’s first fast-food hamburger chain, is rolling out Flippy, our very own robotic fry cook, to one-third of its restaurants across the U.S.
Why Flippy? Because it gets the job done—fast. According to Forbes, the Flippy 2 prototype cooks up to 60 baskets of fries per hour, which is 30% more than a human fry cook. This early version laid the groundwork for the future, but our newest model, Flippy Next Gen, is set to scale across the industry with even more improvements.
Flippy is Leading the Kitchen Revolution: Here at Miso, we’re on a mission to solve the biggest problems in the restaurant industry. Our Flippy Fry Station is designed to:
- Tackle the Labor Crisis: Keep kitchens running smoothly even with fewer hands on deck.
- Cut Costs: Reduce food waste and manage labor costs by handling repetitive tasks with ease.
- Delight Customers: Deliver consistent, high-quality food that keeps people coming back for more.
Flippy’s been hard at work in real-world kitchens, with over 2.5 million baskets fried and counting. And now, Flippy Next Gen is ready to bring this technology to even more locations. With its smaller size, faster installation, and smarter AI, Flippy Next Gen is the scalable solution for today’s restaurant challenges.
Why This Matters: As Forbes points out, robots aren’t here to replace people; they’re here to make things better. Flippy takes on the repetitive, labor-intensive work, freeing up restaurant teams to focus on customer service and creativity. It’s all about creating a better experience—for everyone.
