Frequently asked questions

How much does a restaurant serving robot cost?

Purchase prices often fall in the $15,000–$40,000 range per unit; lease and RaaS programs commonly run roughly $500–$1,500/month per robot depending on model and fleet size.

Do serving robots work in tight dining rooms?

Open layouts and wide aisles work best. Fine-dining rooms with narrow paths often see lower fit scores — measure aisles before shortlisting vendors.
