Cibotica
"Automate your bowl & salad assembly"
Food-service robotics company whose Remy automated makeline assembles up to 300 salad and bowl orders per hour with ingredient-agnostic dispensing.
Cibotica is a food robotics company founded in 2021 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, building automation for restaurant kitchens.
Its flagship product, Remy, is an automated salad and bowl assembly line designed to make back-of-house operations more efficient, accurate, and less labor-intensive. Remy assembles up to 300 bowls per hour and uses a magnetic conveyor belt that carries each dispensed bowl past stations collecting precise portions of requested ingredients. The company built what it describes as the world's first ingredient-agnostic dispensing library, applying AI and machine learning so the system can dispense virtually any ingredient with precise portioning, reducing food waste by up to 50% and labor costs by roughly 30%. Remy's modular, turn-key design replaces a standard makeline fridge without changing kitchen layout or footprint and integrates with mainstream ordering, POS, and back-of-house systems. The platform is managed through Cibotica OS, culinary management software that connects front- and back-of-house systems, generates prioritized order queues, provides real-time data-driven insights, and supports 24/7 monitoring and technical support. Remy receives orders from existing POS, online channels, or manual input and guides staff on which ingredients and quantities to prepare.
As of the company's pilot program, Remy operated in partner restaurant locations. In April 2026, Cibotica was acquired by Appetronix to accelerate automated multi-cuisine foodservice expansion. The company continues to develop ingredient dispensing and portioning technology for the food-service automation market.
