YANU - The Bartending Robot Autonomous Unit that sells and presents drinks
Hello everyone,
What is YANU ?
Yanu is an autonomous robot bartending unit that sells and serves beverages.
WHY YANU?
Considering the huge rise in automation, the increasing market share of the service industry and the issues on today’s labour market, our company has decided to step in and help out businesses with breakthrough solutions in service robotics.
Behind the fancy design there is a tireless workforce of artificially intelligent robots designed to work with and for humans. The new YANU bartending unit will help you as a bar-owner serve more clients considerably faster, with no errors and much lower expenses.
As a customer the benefits are obvious: besides being cool to watch, YANU never forgets anyone, gets your drink in half a minute, communicates with you via an app, treats you as a VIP if you pay in tokens from our ICO and even acts as a personal assistant of sorts.

OUR BUSINESS MODEL
We sell, lease and maintain bar units.
This offer is suited to any client who already owns a venue and wishes to enhance their business but wants to earn all of the profit from our technology.
We will set up a bar unit, train the employees to operate it and offer a cloud-based service for maintenance.
This model is suitable for clubs, bars, hotels, ships and cinemas.
We sell beverages and operate our own units.
This offer is suited to clients who own space that can be enriched with new options but who do not want to get involved in the everyday running of the bar.
We will set up a bar unit in leased space and organise refills, cleaning and maintenance. We sell beverages directly to end-clients.
This model is suitable for shopping malls, airports, train stations, festival areas, sports venues and tourist attractions.
Our business philosophy
We think about and work towards long-term goals.
