THE PRESTO STORY

Building the AI-powered drive-thru of the future

Redefining an Industry with Automation Techology

Founded at MIT in 2008, Presto spent its formative years building cutting-edge technology that transformed the way diners ordered, paid for, and interacted with their favorite full-service restaurant brands.

Then COVID arrived and upended the restaurant industry. As the pandemic raged, consumers shifted from casual dining establishments and flocked to Quick Service Restaurants at the exact moment the industry was grappling with unprecedented labor shortages.

Spotting an opportunity, Presto applied its extensive experience deploying restaurant technology at scale to a nascent yet promising new field: Generative Artificial Intelligence. Presto Voice was born.
