Our take
Many restaurants are struggling to keep up with service demands due to a lack of staff and rising costs. Traditional staffing methods are no longer enough to handle the fast pace and high expectations, creating a need for new, tech-driven solutions.
To solve this, Bear Robotics created AI-powered server robots called Servi. These robots move around the restaurant, delivering food and drinks to customers, reducing the workload on human staff. By handling routine tasks, they free up employees to focus on more important duties, improving services.
Servi robots have been successfully used in restaurants in the US, South Korea, and Japan, showing their growing importance in the industry. Alongside this success, is the recent closure of a funding round which will help Bear Robotics improve its robotics technology and explore new uses beyond their current models. As demand for AI and robotics increases, Bear Robotics is ready to take on the market and find new opportunities in service automation.
