Miso Robotics, a California-based company, built a kitchen bot called Flippy that was able to cook 300 burgers per day and then expanded into whipping up fries with the second version. The fast-casual chain Wing Zone in May inked a deal with Miso to install Flippy 2 into all future restaurant locations. Jack in the Box is deploying that same machine along with the company's Sippy bot - which quickly pours, labels and seals beverage orders - this year with a goal of getting into 10 high-volume locations in 2023.
