The problem

Cooking depends on people.

“I can't find a reliable cook. When I do, he leaves in 6 months.”

Single outlet owner

“My Karama branch never tastes like Jumeirah. Same recipe, different cook, different result.”

Multi-location chain, Dubai

“We serve 2,000 meals a day. If the base paste is off in the morning, the entire day's production is off.”

Institutional caterer

“I want to expand but I can't clone my head chef.”

Catering business, Singapore

These are different businesses with one shared problem: cooking depends on people, and people are variable. yKOS removes the variability. Your recipe is codified — every ingredient, every temperature, every timing. The machine executes it. The output is the same. Every time.

How it works

Recipe → Program → Execution → Output

01

Your recipe

As your chef cooks it today.

02

Codified in yKOS

Ingredients, temperature, timing.

03

Machine executes

Helper loads, selects, presses start.

04

Consistent output

Batch 5 tastes like batch 500.

Base paste preparation automated by the machine. Finishing by your kitchen team. Less mess at the finishing station, faster service, consistent flavor foundation — how the best professional kitchens already operate.

Scalability

One recipe. Many kitchens.
