Robotics startup Hyphen secured a 25 million dollar Series B round with backing from Chipotle and Cava to scale its automated kitchen makelines. The system assembles a custom bowl every 10 to 15 seconds and tracks ingredients to the gram to eliminate food waste. With a unit cost under 100,000 dollars and a sub-one-year ROI, this technology is transitioning from pilot to a core operational standard. This shift addresses systemic labor shortages by automating repetitive assembly while protecting margins. #AI #Robotics #FoodTech #Automation #FastCasual
