I tried this, as they had a coupon for a free pizza in Mountain View. The pizza was just ok, and considering the many choices around here for really good pizza, I probably won't actually pay for one of theirs unless I have some indication that the quality has improved.
- azinman2 10y agoThat's what I care about. Interesting to hear it's only ok. There's another startup called pi (app is now called Pythagoras) that's also trying to reinvent much about pizza, and theirs is currently my fav pizza in SF (certainly for delivery). Plus it's delivered within 15 min from request!
- sharemywin 10y agoas far as I can tell they arn't doing much from an automation side other than contracting with a kitchen and using an app with UberRush. Also, there charging $20 for a pizza with a very small deliveyr area.
- azinman2 10y agoDon't know about automation (unimportant to me) but boxes are specially designed with a non-standard material, pizzas are premade and par-baked earlier in the day so that they can do last 3 min and then deliver to you (within 15 min), centralize the initial cooking then decentralize the last for faster delivery, have 15 min delivery at all, pizza dough has been researched with former head Google chef for what works best with their pre-cooking method, they only have 3 kinds of pizza in order to make all this work, and various other things along the chain. $20 delivery for this quality and size is pretty decent/normal in SF.
