Question 1

Can I buy CINDER for my restaurant?

Accepted Answer

Not yet. CINDER is pre-product. There is no shipping point-of-sale, kitchen display system or augmented-reality runtime available for purchase, trial or demonstration. CINDER is currently selecting three to five design partners to build the first system alongside.

Question 2

What is CINDER building?

Accepted Answer

A kitchen display system and an augmented-reality service layer for professional kitchens, built on the thesis that service-time intelligence should be rendered where the cook is already looking rather than on a screen they have to turn toward.

Question 3

Who is building it?

Accepted Answer

Luke Wu, a chef with twenty-three years in professional kitchens including chef de cuisine roles, who separately built and ran controlled-environment farms supplying Michelin-starred kitchens.

Question 4

What is the design partnership?

Accepted Answer

Three to five kitchens co-developing the first system. It is not a pilot programme and not a discount. The honest pitch is a partnership rather than a product: a chef who has run these passes is building the kitchen display system he wanted and could not buy.
