SueChef is the first fully automated, start-to-finish, meal preparation solution and ecosystem. The SueChef, a multi-meal cold food storage and convection oven combination, removes the human element from cooking (and even the premises) by taking food from freezer and putting it in the oven. This automated process is what makes SueChef such a leap from currently available cooking appliances, which focus on ease-of-use rather than transforming the food preparation paradigm altogether.
SueChef is the Keurig of food and just like Keurig, it has a proprietary K-cup equivalent, the SueTrée. The SueTrée is carefully designed to fit the form factor, provide cooking data upon loading, easily transition from cold to hot, be safe to eat out of, and be easily recycled. SueTrées are ordered online and shipped directly to the consumer’s door to provide for additional convenience. Alternatively, you can pick them up at the local grocery store. The meals themselves are made by the brands you know and trust and are focused on being healthy.
The SueChef is the first smart kitchen appliance to truly encompass the purpose behind the smart home: allow the user to automate daily tasks. Sue, our AI, helps make the experience easier. Smartphones or smart home devices (Sue links seamlessly with Siri, Google Assistant, and Alexa) are the primary controllers (though there are manual controls). The SueChef app allows the user to view available meals, select one to cook (either now or at a future time), and check cooking status. The app also allows the user to easily reorder food and sync nutritional information to tracking apps. And if that isn’t easy enough, the user can simply ask Sue to perform any of those actions for them. Sue can make recommendations, automatically reorder based on past ordering, and use real-world events (e.g. traffic) to ensure food is ready when you want it.
Due to SueChef's high Technical Readiness Level with respect to components and assemblies, production and manufacturing isn't difficult. Materials, parts, and manufacturing processes already exist. This provides a very low level of risk associated with the manufacturing and assembly of SueChef. Production units are already being assembled for testing.
Who will use SueChef? Everyone, needs to eat and who couldn’t use more free time, but our target market is singles aged 22 to 45 who are in the upper half of wage earners. These users tend to not have a lot of free time and often place a premium on convenience. Consequently, they are often forced to resort to unhealthy microwave meals or eating out. SueChef provides a cost savings over eating out (a 325% savings) while delivering more convenient, better tasting, and higher quality meals than the microwave.
We hope you will join SueChef in not just creating an appliance but rather an innovative ecosystem that is capable of shifting the paradigm of the kitchen.
