There are hardly any more limits to digitalisation or automation in the kitchen: realise your own idea.

Using smartTONi as an operating system for the standardised management of catering businesses, it is easy to programme add-on apps, control hardware in coordination with production, and develop new solutions. Think of your dream operation, together we will realise it.

smartTONi is a system for standardised management and scaling of catering businesses, central and stand-alone kitchens, which can be flexibly expanded. It allows real-time and individual communication with each kitchen team member and is optimally designed for the connection and control of equipment, robotics or sensor technology. If you are planning to develop new solutions in the restaurant with digitalisation or automation, we and smartTONi bring the necessary know-how as well as the technology. Together, amazing things can be implemented - see examples below. The smartTONi IT architecture is open. The existing system can be used immediately via the dual licensing model. The enterprise version is available for further development based on customer-specific requirements. You can realise your idea on your own or with us: together with our interdisciplinary partners, we will be happy to support you.

 

Extract of realised Use Cases:

RECORDING OF INDIVIDUAL NUTRIENT INTAKE

In clinics, in sports or depending on the catering concept, you often want to know exactly and communicate to the "guest" in real time what nutrients they are consuming. By placing force sensors in the buffet, smartTONi controls the information between the kitchen and the change in weight when scooping per individual dish. The "guest" is told what nutrients are already on their plate and what they are scooping. The approach is used in order not to exceed / fall short of the daily predefined requirement. However, the same can be supplemented with further content and features as required.

 

INDIVIDUAL FOOD PREPARATION

Individual food preparation is often requested for health or taste reasons. The kitchen team could do it - but only if it knows the individual wishes for each incoming kitchen order and the ingredients and mise en place necessary for the corresponding preparation are available. smartTONi provides this information to the chefs responsible for the preparation for each individual order, where conventional POS systems fail. To record individual customer requests, the system always and only provides the service kitchen with the possible combinations of ingredients and mise en place currently available.

 

PREP STATION: INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY AND CONSTANT QUALITY

What happens at a pick-up or delivery station? The online orders come in, the chef reads the ingredient list and tries not to scoop the wrong ingredients, not to measure the wrong ingredient weight, not to waste too much time.

With smartTONi, the counter of the prep station becomes smart: ordered ingredients are illuminated, already scooped ingredients in a different colour. Portion weight and scooped weight are displayed to the chef in real time. Required labels / receipts are printed automatically.

Your chef always makes the right portion size, with the right ingredients, and 20% to 60% faster scooping.

 

SERVICE ROBOT CONTROL

A service robot supports your staff in the customer area. You want it to be in the kitchen immediately after the dish is finished and without manual intervention? You want to control it via your mobile POS? No problem: smartTONI knows when your chefs are finished preparing each order, and all processes are integrated into the system. Whether you want to control a robot, automatically turn off a shock frigo or raise the temperature in the cooker at the right time - all hardware with open API can be effortlessly integrated into the cooking process.
