Company mission

To enable professional chefs to effortlessly amplify and reproduce their capabilities.

Our take

The success of any restaurant lies in the effectiveness of its kitchen, so GoodBytz capitalises on the experience of world-leading chefs and uses robotics to reproduce their capabilities and skills. Using machine learning trained with the skillsets of leading chefs, the company’s Robotic Kitchen Assistants make restaurants more efficient and have the potential to bring blanket value across a chain.

Not only does GoodBytz create the hardware, but the software too. Its business intelligence and data analysis platforms continuously optimise a kitchen's performance and help to scale the business. This is an excellent proposition for new restaurant brands and larger businesses looking to expand.

GoodBytz has an eye-catching premise and the capital to make a mark on the industry. 12 million euros was awarded by Oyster Bay Venture Capital in 2023, which will help GoodBytz meet its target of producing 100 robotic units by 2025 as well as expand its team and customer base. A flagship store is also in the works in the company’s native Hamburg, indicating the confidence the company and its investors have in the product.
