Interesting deal for Miso Robotics - per their website, the Flippy 2 starts at $3000 per month, so that's maybe a $7.5 million deal per year assuming 2 robots per location.

In terms of location costs, 2 machines with maintenance might be around $10k per month per location. Definitely a cost savings move for White Castle - I reckon 24 hour coverage with staff would be more than that.

I guess there's no avoiding this - with inflation the way it is, and the inability of certain businesses to raise prices (fast food burgers at $15 a pop?), and real estate going crazy, we are certainly moving to a Star Wars type future where "droids" of some sort will be in most aspects of our lives. All this money printing has a cost.

Bit sad that our kids won't have the experience of working in fast-food as their "summer job", nor will they have humans serving them from behind the counter. Cold and clinical...
