    Congrats! I met with the team in their YC days, and can say they are all quite sharp, and the market is overdue for this kind of automation/service.

    They might want to partner with my buddies at http://TheOrangeChef.com, who sell (among other inventions) iPad sleeves to keep them clean in the kitchen. Maybe send a batch of sleeves with every new restaurant that signs up?

    Having worked in kitchens, it's great to see this. Wish more start-ups would focus on solving real world problems.

    This kind of looks like a more streamlined Food Hub https://food-hub.org/

    Given the name "Sourcery" is already trademarked in IC009 (tech goods and services), it'll be interesting to see if they get to keep using that name.
