Piestro has teamed up with Serve Robotics to bake and deliver pizzas with Serve Robotics delivery robots. The partnership will offer customers contactless end-to-end robotic pizza delivery.<\/p>\n
For the contactless pizza delivery process, Serve’s robots fit up to four Piestro pies and deliver them to the customer’s doorstep for a completely contactless end-to-end transaction. Customers enter a passcode to retrieve their pizza from the delivery robot.<\/p>\n
Automated pizza delivery is currently limited to one market in the Los Angeles area.<\/p>\n
“We couldn’t be more excited to partner with Serve Robotics to offer our customers the convenience and delight of robotic delivery. Robotic delivery is contactless and reliable, with a higher on-time rate than couriers, and will allow our customers to get their pizzas even faster than before – all at the touch of their fingertips,” said Piestro CEO Massimo De Marco.<\/p>\n
“In 2022, we expect to see self-driving commercialized, with sidewalk robots starting to see scaled deployment across major cities. After over a decade of R&D, for the first time, we will realize the economic value of autonomous mobility as the marginal cost of robotic delivery falls below the rising labor cost,” said Ali Kashani, co-founder and CEO of Steve Robotics.<\/p>\n
