Aniai

Aniai builds the Alpha Grill, a robotic grill for commercial kitchens. The machine cooks both sides of a protein at once between heated platens, follows programmed recipes for temperature, thickness and cook time, and uses a built in robotic spatula to offload finished items and scrape the grill surface clean. The result is a grill station that produces the same patty on every shift and at every location without a dedicated grill cook. The customers are quick service and fast casual restaurant chains, convenience stores, hotels and resorts, and school and university dining operations, particularly multi location groups that want standardization and sites struggling to staff the grill. Aniai publishes two models. The Two Platen unit is built for high volume operations and maximum throughput, with output above 200 items per hour and proteins ready in under three minutes. The Single Platen unit has a smaller footprint, suits low to high volume sites, and is currently offered through a pilot program. Prospective buyers book a demonstration at one of Aniai's test kitchens. Aniai does not publish equipment prices, lease terms or pilot program fees. Pricing is quoted after a demonstration. Buyers should treat this as a hardware purchase with kitchen integration, not a software subscription. The company's pitch rests on labor shortages at the grill station and consistency across shifts and locations rather than on cuisine or menu features.
