Bear Robotics focuses on providing robotic solutions for the restaurant and hospitality industry. Their main product, Servi, is a robot designed to assist with food service by carrying and delivering food and beverages to customers. This helps reduce the workload for human staff and increases operational efficiency. Businesses such as restaurants and hotels can integrate Servi into their service processes, which not only streamlines operations but also enhances the customer experience and may lower labor costs. Unlike many competitors, Bear Robotics operates on a business-to-business model, selling their robots directly to clients and generating revenue through sales and after-sales services like maintenance. The goal of Bear Robotics is to improve the efficiency of food service operations while allowing human staff to focus more on customer interactions, ultimately enhancing the overall dining experience.
