A recent Nasdaq report says, "The robotics industry is poised for unprecedented growth in 2025."
As a first-mover in the space, few companies have more robotic know-how than Miso Robotics. Their AI-powered kitchen robot was honed in live kitchens for top brands like White Castle and Jack in the Box. Now, they're officially past the prototype phase and ready to begin scaling production of their recently released new generation of Flippy Fry Station, a robot twice as fast and half as big as before.
Its first production run sold out in one week. Considering the fast-food industry is grappling with 144% labor turnover, that should come as no surprise. But it's Miso's entire business model that has people so excited about the company's newly opened investment opportunity (and chance to secure bonus shares).
The Fast Food Industry Is in Crisis
The $1 trillion U.S. fast food industry is at a breaking point. Operators are sounding alarms on rising labor costs, unprecedented employee turnover, and operational inefficiencies eating away at margins.
- 98% of operators say rising labor costs are hurting business
- $8B+ is lost annually across U.S. fast food due to labor inefficiencies, food waste, and slow service
- Up to $4B of that loss comes from fry station inefficiencies alone
Without automation, restaurants are burning money just trying to stay afloat. That's why brands are racing to adopt Flippy.
Flippy Fry Station: The Scalable Fix
Across more than 200,000 hours in real kitchens, Flippy's early prototypes learned from real-world operations, refining the product, building a massive proprietary data advantage, and mastering the intensity of quick-service restaurants. Now, Miso's first fully commercial robot, Flippy Fry Station, is here. And it's built for mass adoption.
- Developed in collaboration with NVIDIA and validated by third-party restaurant research leaders like WD Partners
- Can boost industry profits by up to $7.6 billion per year
- Can cut fry station labor time by 89% vs. human-operated stations
It installs overnight, takes up half the footprint of previous models, and requires very little employee retraining. Just push a button and pick up perfect fries minutes later. This progression sets the stage for Miso's scalable business model to thrive.
A Business Model Built to Scale
With the newest Flippy Fry Station, Miso is introducing the foundation of a revenue engine built for rapid growth and long-term value.
- Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS): Restaurants lease Flippy through multi-year contracts that bundle hardware, software, support, and service into a single monthly fee, creating predictable, recurring revenue.
- Service & Support: Each deployment includes installation, maintenance, software upgrades, and 24/7 support — strengthening margins and ensuring uptime for customers.
- AI & Data Monetization: Flippy captures proprietary kitchen performance data, fueling future product improvements, predictive AI tools, and licensing opportunities for kitchen optimization and LLM training.
Invest in the Future of Fast Food
Customers like Jack in the Box and White Castle are already on board, and a new major national QSR partner is currently being finalized. That's part of what makes the company's current investment opportunity so enticing.
As restaurants race to cut costs, improve quality, and stay competitive, Miso offers an automation model that grows with the industry and delivers returns as it does. There just so happens to be 100,000+ U.S. fast-food locations, and the race to automate them is underway.
With new partners, real-world validation, and scaling in motion, this may be the last chance to join Miso before Flippy Fry Station is all over the country.
