AI-Powered Technology

Computer vision cameras identify products with 99.9% accuracy the moment they’re removed from the fridge. The system distinguishes between similar items, tracks multiple selections simultaneously, and automatically processes payment—creating a grab-and-go experience that feels like magic but runs on infrastructure.

AI monitors stock levels continuously, not just during restocking visits. The system tracks consumption patterns, identifies trending items, and predicts stockouts before they happen. Property managers receive automated alerts when inventory needs attention—reactive restocking becomes proactive infrastructure management.

Tap to unlock. Grab your meal. Walk away. Our AI processes payment automatically as the door closes, supporting Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay, and all major credit and debit cards. No app downloads required—though our mobile wallet cards provide enhanced features for regular users.

Real-Time Theft Prevention

The Smart Fridge™ remains locked until a valid payment method is verified. AI vision tracks every item removed against the authorized user, providing theft prevention that doesn’t require security cameras or staff monitoring. Issues are flagged instantly through our monitoring infrastructure.

Every Wednesday, our Smart Cooker™ software analyzes consumption data across all locations—tracking which meals are trending, which are running low, and what each building’s unique preferences demand. This data transmits directly to Southerleigh’s culinary team, generating precise production orders for the upcoming week.

By Sunday night, Southerleigh’s chefs are preparing meals specifically calibrated to each location’s demand patterns. No overproduction. No shortages. No guesswork. This is supply chain infrastructure powered by real consumption data, not estimated projections.

Each meal is placed into specially designed aluminum meal pods engineered specifically for our Smart Cooker™ induction coils. These aren’t generic containers—they’re precision components manufactured to interact perfectly with induction heating technology, ensuring consistent heat transfer and optimal cooking performance across every meal type.

The aluminum composition, thickness, and geometry are calibrated to work with our induction system. A Butter Chicken heats differently than Chicken Alfredo—and the pod design accounts for these variations. This is the difference between infrastructure engineering and simply reheating food.

After preparation, Southerleigh’s kitchen team seals each meal pod and applies a barcode label containing that specific dish’s complete cooking profile. When an employee places their meal in the Smart Cooker™, the system scans this barcode instantly.

That scan tells the Smart Cooker™ exactly how to prepare that specific meal: precise temperature targets, heating duration, power modulation curves, and resting periods. Jerk Chicken with Coconut Rice receives different treatment than Spaghetti & Meatballs—automatically, without employee input. The barcode is the instruction set; the Smart Cooker™ executes flawlessly.

The barcode system does more than optimize cooking—it enforces food safety at the infrastructure level. Every meal pod carries an expiration date encoded in its barcode. When scanned, the Smart Cooker™ validates freshness before heating begins.

If a meal has passed its expiration date, the system refuses to cook it. No warnings to ignore. No employee judgment calls. The infrastructure simply prevents expired food from being served. This is food safety built into the technology itself—not dependent on training, signage, or human compliance.

This integration creates something competitors cannot replicate: a closed-loop system where culinary expertise and heating technology are engineered together. Southerleigh’s chefs develop recipes knowing exactly how the Smart Cooker™ will execute them. Our technology team calibrates heating profiles based on how Southerleigh prepares each dish.

The result is restaurant-quality consistency at scale—$10-12 meals that taste the same whether served at 11:30 AM or 2:30 AM, in San Antonio or Houston. That’s not a vendor relationship. That’s integrated infrastructure.
